Cinderella at 2 A.M - Vol. 1 Ch. 5

honestly... I like how the FL didn’t beat around the bush and all but... I kind of find her actual reasoning for breaking up a bit too shallow and generalized. Like okay FL and ML come from different economic backgrounds so you’d think they can’t have a relationship bc if that... but, realistically speaking, you don’t really need to “relate” on your struggles to have a healthy relationship, unless ofc the ML is and idiot who trivializes the FL struggles. Idk I’m the sort who believes that liking someone enough to stand your ground or at least find better things to relate to! idk let’s see where this goes !!

I can kinda relate to how she feels. It's scary to be dating someone who you will end up always have to depend on. Since they're so rich, it feels like they're from another planet and you feel like you don't have a place in their world even though you do in their heart. As for me, I dated a guy who was very popular and knowing that almost every girl liked him, it made me really insecure because I would have to make myself worthy of being together with him. In her case, she doesn't feel like she is worthy enough to be in his world because she values her ordinary life. It's really freaking scary to be suddenly put in a different environment, where your in-laws don't even like you, and there's even a fear of whether you will be alright afterwords because you need to constantly rely on your partner. Of course she would want money, but would anyone be able to handle so much things all of a sudden? She would be like Marie Antoinette, just 30 something years old. Love can't solve all problems.
I really do hope that they get back together though.

O...ouch. This ML is such a puppy dog that I feel quite bad about this.

 

[mysticmiku]

i feel bad, but the deal's been made, and yeah she could return the money, but she wants it to support her and her brother

Really like the FL so far and how realistic this is. Thanks for the update!

i really like what everyone has been analyzing about the mc on this chapter, but i must add that i think she feels insecure about being with him and i can see how people would judge her and throw all of their high expectations on her
and honestly, if he really wanted to marry her he should have presented his parents to her, i mean they have been dating for 3 years!!! and apparently he already knew the mother was going to be against it, he needed to be honest since the beginning if he wanted to have a future together so even if im sad for him, i don't think she is being the terrible guy here
i feel like she accepeted the money just because that would be the most rational thing to do and it would be useful in the future, but that it was not really the reason why they are breaking up

honestly i was scared that people on the comment section would say the fl is a bad person or something but im glad everyone is understanding her mindset

 

[onlyonew]

honestly, both sides make sense. While it's not really his fault that he was born into a privileged family, the blame is still on him for keeping that fact a secret from her. I feel bad for him since his feelings are sincere and he seems really sweet, but FL's points are very valid. The social status difference is a big bomb tbh they rarely really work, especially when one of them is a literal chaebol afljkdfsdp

It's true that different backgrounds make relationships harder but they dated for 3 years and nothing but his money made her think she wouldnt be able to lean on him and they are incompatible? She acts as if they started dating a week ago... Well they have to go through this since this is their achilles heel and what makes them different from each other

awhhh :"(

i rly like the fl being rational. its rare to find mc similar to that, they are always carried by their emotions.
