Just because there's no malice in his actions does not mean he is not at fault. He feels entitled to her time and affection, like he feels entitled to everything else. He never has to think things through or deal with consequences because somebody else always deals with it for him. Despite her consistently telling him he needs to be more mindful he persists in his carefree attitude and behavior, never once even attempting to put himself in her or anyone elses shoes for a singular second. If he spent just a couple of moments thinking about how his actions made her feel they might be able to have a proper conversation and mend their relationship, but he never does.
He doesn't care why she stayed in the countryside so long, he doesn't care why she keeps pushing him away, he doesn't care why she resents him. All he cares about is that he isn't receiving the adoration he thinks he deserves from her. He's never once been concerned about her feelings, or what she wants. All he cares about is that she might hate him, not because he did something that hurt her, but because that will get in the way of receiving the love from her he feels entitled to. He's never once expressed any concern about her feelings that wasn't centered around making her like or praise him. He's selfish to the core and is incapable of realizing it. This is exactly the kind of thing she ran away to the countryside to avoid and it still followed her to fu** up her life. So yeah, she's being mean, but there's some people who won't listen no matter what you do or say, and sometimes the only way to get them to leave is to be a little mean.
