Does it look different from the reader's PoV? Being hurt is not a justification for hurting others. We can maybe better understand why she is like that, but I don't see it as a saving grace. Ami may have been starting to get there, but at some point, it's simply too little too late.from her limited POV, it just seems like she doesnt care about her at all

And like Rei said, she never communicates anything important. You can't really see it as anything else than expecting to be given, while not investing much in return.
If anything, I think Rei lasted way longer than any normal, self-respecting person would. It could really be felt in this chapter, how much damage has been done: questioning every action, suspecting every situation, like a beaten dog, flinching at every little noise. Surviving first love like this, I wouldn't be surprised if she ended up with life-long relationship issues.
I hope we won't have to wait as long for the last chapter... Pretty please 🙏
I can't even find raws for this to mtl it, so this is the only way to see the end...
Decided to read it back, and Id like to think in a sense her key issue was hinted at in Chapter 3 with the text message, which we later find is likely related to her mom.Does it look different from the reader's PoV?

She may well still love her, but that doesn’t mean she has to be such a sucker for punishment and date her!Whatever happened to Rei's "I'll always love you until we die" then
Resolve clashing with reality.Whatever happened to Rei's "I'll always love you until we die" then

It was easy to say at the time, especially when Ami was being dismissive/distant, thus not creating any emotional waves in the dynamic. Ami is distant, Rei is pursuing. Standard for them.
Now Rei was put in a situation where Ami was being good to her, essentially acting like a girlfriend would, but she, in turn, can't stop looking for agendas and lies in everything that's happening. That experience has shown her, that even if Ami's behavior would change, Rei herself is already broken and can't trust Ami. And all those doubts, even when in the middle of a fun date with her crush, just make her feel miserable.
man this whole time it was just mommy issues
She clearly wants a relationship tho, as opposed to just quietly stalking/watching her from a distance even tho it does seem like a breakup at the last pageI feel like Rei's whole "I'll love you until we die" thing is still in effect. You can love someone without wanting a relationship with them.
