I was so surprised I had to check the comment section to find out other people's reactions!What a pleasant surprise that the cad who broke the engagement is actually not a cliche-ish evil idiot. And he is actually quite wise for an idiot.
Yeah, it's quite nice to see the guy who broke the engagement, honestly admit that he is and was a fool and also be supportive of her finding love.What a pleasant surprise that the cad who broke the engagement is actually not a cliche-ish evil idiot. And he is actually quite wise for an idiot.
Right? He's the dumb in head but smart of heart kind of guy and I love him for it. Social intelligence is all that his head is good for but man is he good at it.@hanfeizi , @GipoScribantino , @TechnicsMan
It's certainly refreshing that the ex-fiancee didn't dump her because he couldn't appreciate her at her worth. If anything, he undervalues himself. He may call himself a fool (not without reason), but even as an adolescent he was clearheaded enough to see that their marriage would make both of them miserable
and he's insightful enough to realize his own flaws and appreciate how his wife's skills neutralize them.
I'm curious to see how this will continue, since the author doesn't seem to be using the milk-a-misunderstanding-for-all-it's-worth-and-then-keep-milking-it-some-more strategy.
