It be a little early to tell her that, but if is going to tell her then he probably shouldn't beat around the bush and actually tell her what happened. Not half heartedly like this.
Comparing truma in a relating way can sometimes have a negative effect.
She kind of downplayed how bad it was by Comparing it to the train.
I think the issue is she replied in a way that puts the truma on the same level when they clearly aren't .(seeing the long lasting effect it has on the mc).
Bro. What. The. Fuck. There was so many routes this could of taken, but this is by far the most weird and strange one like wtf man
was really hoping for some drama and not just a "OMG we both got sexually assaulted?? #besties!!!!"
I just hope that her kinda downplaying this whole scenario leads into some sort of drama or story development
Yeah nah she feels off for some reason. I bet their relationship is gonna slowly deteriorate throughout the manga, getting worse each day. Hopefully im wrong and he gets the support he needs from his girlfriend, but i dont bet on it.
The main problem is that he doesn't want to be with her because he likes her he wants to be with her because he wants to be normal. This does not progress the healing process like he hope it wlll. At least he has his bros to watch his back for him.
Well I am not sure how it is in the original Japanese text, the English translation is not clear about his sexual attack, so I give her the benefit of the doubt for the trauma comparison.
I cringed when it came out but at the same time it's very realistic for people to try and seem empathetic by talking about their own experiences even if those experiences aren't on the same level
"An adult that was tasked with my wellbeing took advantage of that trust and hurt me thrusting me into a downward spiral of agony and grief"
"Wow that's crazy, Sometimes strangers touch my butt on the train. #Relatable"
Am I the only one that thinks that there's a slight possibility that she made up the "being molested on the train" part? You know, just to earn some points with the guy.
