Agree with
@hedgemoney . Each of them need a personal therapy, a couple therapy, and a family therapy.
@kowoyoshi YESS I AGREE. Poor, naive, fool young Hansen who fell in love with the wrong person...
I think
@blob and
@Sky1029 opinions are actually two side of the same coin, in the sense that Sky's reasoning is seen from the perspective of Hansen, and thus, the "effect", while Blob's explain the logical reasoning of why the MC does that in the first place, hence the " cause". Her action to keeps her own feelings and expectations in check inadvertently hurts the ML so much, which in turn also hurt the MC again. Dayum, it's painful to look at them..
