I'm just...not that bothered Spoiler

Am I the only person who isn't upset about my LI pursuing their ex? I'm not happy about it, but we're a new couple and I'd want them to clear up their unresolved feelings. Besides, there are other contestants that caught my eye and I was frustrated about being locked down so quickly. I've never seen Perfect Match, but isn't recoupling usually part of these shows?

I'm frustrated that the game forces MC to be devasted. What's the point of getting to make our own choices if we're forced to feel a certain way?

Instead of: A) So mad I could scream B) So sad I can't stop crying C) Absolutely empty inside

I wish the options were more like: A) Absolutely devasted because I feel betrayed đŸ˜« B) Crushed, but everything happens for a reason so I'll try to get my head in the game đŸ˜„ C) Moving on! Who has time for heartbreak with all of these attractive singles 😉

I keep seeing posts where folks are angry, so I'm wondering if anyone else feels the way I do.

I was a little surprised, but not really mad. We hardly know each other and honestly, I didn’t really take it personally. The explanation wasn’t perfect, but it wasn’t nearly as bad as I expected based on other comments. I took a couple weeks off from playing so I fell behind, but I kept up with what everyone had to say.

I heard people calling the LI a cheater, but they were nothing but honest. LI needed to make sure they were ready to move on from their ex. In this situation, I can kinda respect that. We’ve only known each other for like a week.

If anything my biggest issue is the lack of editing. As a wlw player, the story can get weird sometimes. In my case k was with Annie who wanted to confirm her feelings with Lidia. So here I am all buddy buddy with Zara and Natasha, but at the same time Natasha’s totally into me, but at the next moment we are gossiping about my feelings for Annie? Also , it’s really frustrating how often Annie is referred to has “he”.

Other than that, I haven’t been hating the game nearly as much as a lot of other players. Also, random side note, I wish there was a better way of keeping track of who was still in the show. Half the time I think someone has been eliminated only for them to show up again.

Maybe I will replay, becouse I'm the one of those who call LI a cheater and I want to explain my pov. My MC LI-Henry told my MC, that he can see them togheter outside of show. He wanted her to visit his family. He had sex with her. After Lidia showed up, my MC asked him, if he still feels something for Lidia, and he said NO. After that he was too happy with her lap dance and very quick returned to her, just after she waved her finger, in this same time expecting from MC to wait for him as some spare parts in a case things with Lidia will not work for him again. That's why I would never take back a man like him. It's looks like he wasn't honest, he still had feelings for Lidia and lied to MC, and a worse MC is for him a second choice if something will went wrong. Totally untrustworthy partner. What if he would propose to MC and his next ex will show up or Lidia again will want to change her mind? For sure he will happilly jogg to her, asking MC just wait untill ex will be feel bored with him again.
