Been a while so maybe I'm misremembering, but I'm pretty sure he does get it. He's been forcing himself to not see it that way, these last few chapters especially
Its not the same situation, but I was 28 and in short we got a batch of interns who were college sophmores-soon-to-be-juniors and from another country.
There was a girl in the group who had a big crush on me. I have no issues with agegaps but to me it was clear that she was just infatuated - other than the fact she was interning where I worked there was no commonality, I think I was just the person she liked the most and that turned into a workplace crush. There was also a bit of language barrier. So, sort of like Konishikawa I just pretended not to notice.

Now there is a gulf of difference between when the younger person is 19 and when they are 34, but I get his perspective that "she just has a temporary crush, she'll change her mind if we actually dated, she won't be happy with dating and older person and will eventually want to date someone her own age once the novelty wears off and reality sets in."

god being a wingman wasnt in my expectation ngl

If the mangaka makes her fumble after that EPICALLY INFURIATING interruption trope, I swear on everything I hold dear that I will hunt them down and make them smell my farts for the rest of their life.

I'm sorry but with the slow releases of this manga, and the slow development (understandably), can someone remind me of the following:
  • Why does she like Konishikawa? How did that develop?
  • No tact, in romance... was she single her whole life?
Here are my notes.

Konishikawa, xxx (M)
o) ML
o) Age: 53
o) Section Chief
o) Lives in a 94.8 million yen 3LDK condominium that he somewhat-recently paid cash for
o) Either does not think of Ai "that way" or is hiding it well
o) Used to be far too strict and serious causing him to be isolated and his fiancée to leave him
o) At previous firm someone envious framed him for a failure and nobody supported him
o) Has two older brothers
o) Thought a few times that Ai might like him but misinterpreted her words and thinks he was mistaken
o) Traumatized by his breakup when his fiancée said his entire life was based on hurting and stepping over people and that "you no longer have the right to love anyone", leading him to go way too far to avoid hurting people

Misato, Ai (F)
o) FL
o) Age: 32
o) Subordinate of Konishikawa
o) Thinks that Konishikawa is far too lenient
o) Loves Konishikawa
o) Parents married when father in 50s and mother in 30s
o) Has older brother and sister
o) On company trip to Kinosaki goes to Konishikawa's room with sake when he's drunk, is seen by Shimizu, and is scolded by Shimizu the next day
o) She does not realize that Shimizu is into her even though he's left her hints
o) Shocked by Shimizu's confession
o) After his failed confession Shimizu advised her to tell Konishikawa how she felt and gave her Konishikawa's address
o) Arranged a "real estate" talk with Konishikawa at an izakaya near his condo and fates aligned for her to stay over at his place

Shimizu (M)
o) Coworker who just returned from overseas
o) Misato's doiki
o) Clearly making moves on Ai
o) Has an office girl fan club
o) Has given up on Ai
o) Konishikawa tried to push him toward Ai and he retorted that Konishikawa already knew how Ai feels and that Konishikawa is just trying to use him to avoid dealing with it
o) Confesses to Ai in order to face the rejection
o) Gives Ai Konishikawa's home address

Misato, Sachi
o) Ai's older sister

Fujiwada, xxx (F)
o) Long brown hair
o) New coworker
o) Konishikawa reminds her of her grandfather
o) Interested in Kida

Tanaka (M)
o) Department Manager

xxx, Kida (M)
o) Underling who goofs off a lot with gravure images

Ishikawa, xxx (F)
o) Short blonde hair
o) Random coworker
