Cohabitation with My Fiancée - Ch. 73 - Relationship Rookie (1)

Gotta give the MC credit. He knew he was being a dick despite his sincerity. Can't blame him for heroine still accepting him.
 
Yes it’s finally back, and I like how they’re talking bout their feelings and shit
 
@givemersspls: Nah, he was a straight-up dick. Whether he was trying to help social phobia doesn't really matter. His criticisms were fair, but how he went about them was wrong.

BUT! That's because he's a middle-school kid with a rigid mindset. A 14 year-old kid who thinks he's grown-up dealing with so much craziness at once? Honestly, it's kind of expected of him.
 
@givemersspls: A prime example is his treatment of his father. Forget the heroine entirely. He is constantly disrespectful, foul-mouthed, and talks down to him. But again, to counterpoint, he is a middle-school kid and the dad IS a bit flakey (though only because his master plan is unknown to the boy). Maybe it's just how I was raised but if I, or any of my friends, said half the things I said to my dad that the MC says to his, we wouldn't be sitting for a week.

The kid is arrogant, proud, stubborn, and full of nothing but himself: a straight-up dick. But (and I feel I need to stress this a 3rd time because this was overlooked), he's still a kid. I've a feeling he'll wise up once he hits high school. Plus it's not like he's a bad kid or wicked-hearted or anything. He just has a major attitude problem.
 
@givemersspls: This is gonna have to be one of those "agree to disagree" things then. Because while his situation is certainly stressful and Ma-Ri being a shut-in is something of an annoyance. Yelling at her, admonishing her, and overall just being terrible to her (again, by HIS own admission, so let that say something) when she is clearly a very passive person is just a dick thing to do. It's on thing to tolerate her situation and try to do something about it, but his attitude on doing so? Straight-up dickery. Add to the fact that, despite her personality, she is still an adult. Kids treating adults like shit is bad enough, but when said adult is trying to be nice, but is constantly frightened by the other party? How is that NOT being a dick? He wasn't oblivious to it either.

Sorry, dude, I get where you're coming from, but the MC is a punk bastard who needs to man up not lash out. He's been growing up and calming down little by little, though. Fortunately, this latest story arc seems to be helping him out too.

To clarify, I don't hate the kid. If I was in his shoes, I'd be just as WTF about the situation, though I wouldn't be as mouthy. I just think that BECAUSE he's a kid that's why he's being such a little dick (most middle school boys my age were growing up). But I also firmly believe once he ages a few more years, he'll get his act together and become much more likable.
 
Even dead girl's heart will beat if you treat her nicely~
