Yancha Gal no Anjou-san - Vol. 13 Ch. 157 - Anjou-san Wants To Go To An Open Campus

A real girl would have left Seto 90 chapters ago.

What uni/career is he aiming for anyways?

This is the main cause of his self doubt. How can he be good enough for Anjou when he has no idea on how he can be good for himself. He has no idea on what he wants to do.

That's actually not very reassuring. You might interpret it as she'd be willing to sacrifice everything to stay with him, but it could be just the opposite. She might mean it to be reassuring, but that doesn't mean that's the only way to read into it, nor that that will be how he hears it. He's insecure, so he needs more definite wording in order to understand her intentions, otherwise he's going to be taking everything in the worst way.

Agree sometimes the words you say make it worse even though you wanted to be there for someone. I could see Seto seeing her saying she'd give up her dream for him and feeling worse when he's just seen her shining. I've had someone tell me they'd love me not matter what after a crushing set back. It did not help but reinforced my feelings of being a failure. Seto has strength but when you feel adrift without direction that strength is hard to maintain. Anjou is his anchor point and realistically he sees her moving forward away while he has no idea of the direction he's going and if it will allow him to travel with her. I'd was down like he was when I was leaving HS and had no idea what I wanted to do.
