365 Days to the Wedding - Vol. 10 Ch. 98 - Can You Speak to Your Mother? (Part 2)

[Chronigan]

I would say "it's complicated". While I don't necessarily approve of the Mother's actions, I do find them easy to understand and sympathize with. Sometimes you just don't know how to deal with a person or a situation, and running feels like your only option.

And because she's more comfortable with (and more focused on) her business relationships, she can't pass up a profitable opportunity even when she suspects a trap.

It all feels very, very human to me so all I can feel is sad for her instead of angry.

I understand what your saying. However this has been going on for all of Rika's life, or at least since the divorce. Being an absentee parent while still trying to control your child by having people keep tabs on her while telling herself Rikka can do whatever she wants. Look how quickly she started manipulating Takuya once they met.

If they meet and she apologizes okay good, start building your relationship back up. As it stands now she seems like someone who ran out on her responsibilities as a parent when what her daughter wanted most was to be with her.

If it was her father instead of her mother doing this, y'all would have a way lower opinion of him
And that's mostly appropriate because the standard for a man is objectively higher. But you should be conscious of that

Okay, am I the only one angry with the mother? She won't talk to her daughter even on the phone but will travel to Tokyo to buy things.

You aren't, count me in.
Well, angry may not be the right word for my feeling, but she really acts like a jerk

Man, this author gets it!
You know? How to write people?
As people? Instead of cardboard cut-outs?

Komiya, Ritsu's biggest simp.

Her whole family, if you remember!

Took the words literally directly out of my mouth. Like literally, I said the words out loud as I opened the comments and this was the first thing I saw
