I don't like the blond girl love interest. She seems creepy and not at all like she can provide a healthy relationship. The active attacking of others and somewhat the protagonists self esteem is also not healthy, and makes me really hate her.
@FredtheFishLord it's 100% an abusive relationship, extorting all the MC's friends and guilting her into giving attention to her. I was hoping there would be an arc where the mc spoke up and told her how abusive the popular girl is being, but guess not.
