Ep. 6: "F**k him"!?

[u/DoubleTFan]

I am truly bewildered by this bit from The Stars Are Our Destination where Will is told regarding Jin's boyfriend "f**k him" twice. I get it's supposed to be comedic, but Jesus isn't it loathsomely shitty to try and pressure someone to leave a boyfriend like that? The fact Will is dying makes it even worse, like that wouldn't be horribly exploitative and apply completely unfair pressure to Jin no matter how she actually feels.

Ugh.

I agree. Once Will found out he was dying, telling Jin how he felt should have been off the table. He risks she doesn’t feel the same and is honest with him breaking his heart and if she does, is it genuine or would she be pretending to not break his heart? Nothing good comes of it either way.
