Normally i'm not in favor of reimanining jokes but this was indeed very funny with the additional subtext it creates lol. Well done and thank you again for the translation.
I just want to give a big thanks to our translator or whatever the person doing the work on getting this to us is called. I'm loving how cute this manga is and as someone who's job is very lonely and quiet it is a huge blessing to have this to read. Thank you so much for filling in where my woefully rusty Japanese cannot. Arigato gozaimasu
To be honest, from an outsider perspective, that description sounds really bad, yeah. If a friend of mine said they were in love with someone like that, I'd be worried too. XD
