Even Though We're Adults - Vol. 1 Ch. 4

"Yum yum, get in my tum."

Man, I usually have good resistance to Akiba's more bizarre localization choices, but boy did the cringe sure hit me real hard on that one.
 
Bruh
She deadass just told him she’s thinking about another woman
Oof
Dudes gonna feel like shit
 
At least he didn't learn it from someone else, i can give credits to her for being honest with him but man did i'm hurt for him.
 
Nope, not funny. Well no, it IS funny, in a morbid fucked up ironic way, but still not funny girl. Points for being honest though, geez...

I honestly don't know if that was horrible of her or not. I mean, what are the other options? Continue a relationship you both know is not Truly working? (Mainly because they're not even trying to make it work, which in and off itself is another problem) Say nothing and cheat on him with a woman for a possible, and plausible "Whoopsies, you found out... yeah I'm cheating on you... with a another woman. Deal with it"? Try and become serious about the relationship to then later realize you were the only one that got serious, or that in the end it wouldn't work and end up hurting because you lost so much time and effort in a meaningless endeavor?

No scenario is "Good" here. it's just compromises or straight up being hurtful for the sake of being hurtful. This may have been the least "Bad" scenario out of all of them tbh.
 
I was so happy that we got a third girl. But she is married too, fml
Well, I guess it's hard to find a good, 35yo woman who is not taken, eh

I got fooled at the beginning, I thought we gonna get the cute, clumsy, everyday school teacher trope. Instead of that we got a sociopath.
I really feel bad for the husband. How did they even get married in the first place? What's he thinking? I mean, he had to realize during the years that their marriage is fake as fuck, right?

And poor Akari. :( I dont really ship her with the teacher.
 
Dang. How I wish my gf was as honest as this woman back then. Still painful either way but would appreciate the honesty.
 
Calling it now: the husband is closeted gay, and the marriage on both sides exists mostly because it's something "they should have done".
 
>People thinking you can't get crushes once you get into a relationship
The point is how you handle those situations. I guess most couples wouldn't ever bring up them crushing on someone else because it would just hurt their partner but c'mon, other people don't just stop being attractive once you get a BF or GF. She's not an asshole for telling him, she's one for not bringing it up earlier and cheating on him. We'll see how much she tells him next chapter I guess - if she comes completely clean or not.

Clearly the relationship the Teacher is stuck in isn't her cup of tea, and while it seems like she's passed the ball into the husbands' court to figure out what to do... it's still more on her to make that decision for herself. Relationships won't work if only one person is giving all the effort, my fear is that they'll fall victim to thinking that having a child will mend their relationship. Which sadly happens more than you'd think.

But there's also one sort of suspicious page which sounds like they might not be able to have children at all - it's not directly stated but "if it doesn't happen it doesn't happen - if we can't we can't". The Husband very clearly wanted children, you can see how excited he is while talking about it and after they bring up his Mother - I'm sure he started thinking about it some more. No doubt his Mother has asked him the same question about the possibility of children. If one of them is infertile they'd have to take extra steps to make the child-thing happen. Which it doesn't sound like the Teacher is willing to do, since she's been leaving it up to fate.
 
Sorry not sorry, you all ... Grown-up love is messy, and if you add queer people into the mix you're bound to get drama at some point. No need for awful people or sociopaths, this is just a realistic take on adult's love lives <3

(btw shimura-sensei I love you)
 
>the husband is closeted gay<

Yurism at its worst. "Lesbyn never wrong or cant immerse", that kind of thing. What is really clear here, is that Akaris piece of shit. She should end up alone and miserable.
 
@Kayyou totally, relationships and feelings are complicated and there often aren't simple answers/solutions
idk what the fuss is about in the comment section...it's already chapter 4, if you don't like the manga, just forget about it and leave
 
>if you don't like the manga, just forget about it and leave

How about you stop trying to read peoples minds and leave? Or alternatively, if you dont like the comments, mine or someone elses, theres always a block button. Yurism at its worst bis, "cant critique muh darlings". Posts are on topic, this is character driven story, and were commenting on characters behavior and motivations. Dont like it? Dont read them, but if you intend to, either participate and stay on topic, or shut the fuck up and stop repeating yourself. Its already chapter four, enough of your whining.
 
I don't really hate the teacher, don't really love her yet either. I'm not too attached to the characters yet. But yea, cheating is kinda to be expected in some adult, long time relationships. It just happens, you talk it out and move on (either together or separately)
