tbh, i really don't feel as bad for rael as i should. yes, she was in a super toxic relationship, but yunifer has already clearly expressed that she's not interested and is uncomfortable yet rael keeps being insistent on being her friend. friendship is a two-way street that yunifer does NOT want to walk. if she did, it would most likely bc she feels guilty which is a terrible foundation for any relationship.
yes, rael got the shit end of the stick, but that doesn't excuse what she's been doing. yunifer's behavior is justifiable because rael is being inconsiderate of yunifer's own boundaries and trying to wiggle her way in and step over them anyway. "i want to be your friend!!1!1!11!" isn't a good enough excuse for forcing a friendship with someone who is clearly uncomfortable with the notion.
imo, yunifer needs to actually set the mf boundary and communicate that she's not comfortable instead of doing this vague dance on eggshells around rael for the sake of the plot that she already trashed.
