Comment by beefyqueefs on Jesse Miller

@Jesse Miller I agree that treating mental illness is important, but i think ML's approach is inappropriate and potentially detrimental to MC's current mental state.
Getting treatment is more effective when the patient is willing and cooperative so ML should have broached the issue and given the MC a chance to understand and acknowledge that he needs help before giving him an ultimatum.
Like essentially he's saying "despite how much pain you're in rn, I'll be less cold towards you if you get consulted" like sure it's a push and done with good intentions(ig?), but it unintentionally comes off as a bit emotionally manipulative.

maybe its just me but if I was just rejected and then they said "want to grab Chioptle with me? Get mental help first" 💀 I would never recover 😭😭

If you ever come across a review that reads like the ravings of a lunatic, it's probably mine! :)

@beefyqueefs I understand what you mean but I don't think that's his intention. The ML's concern is Winter's health and at the same time he doesn't seem how to handle his own feelings. Because they both have their careers to think of. But remember the ML made an observation that no one has asked Winter about his health or recommended him to get a consultation. So it's a foreign concept even for Winter. It might seem manipulative but all I can say is that it seems more of good intentions than anything. He wants to cater to Winter's wish for things to go back to normal and have dinner with him but at the same time the guy can't help but worry over Winter after seeinf his state. And I understand him because it will suck more knowing you could do something to help but turn a blind eye if he faints again? Also for someone who has feeling for Winter that is the last thing I would assume he'd want to experience. He did also say if he doesn't want to then he doesn't want winter to force himself to go through with it.
