Good message, not so good delivery
"Every disappointment leaves scars and endless pain. Endings depend on you. You can lock your heart and let the pain linger or allow someone to break down your wall and unlock your heart."Love and Rain were SO FRICKIN ADORABLEE, I love how open they were with each other, including physically. I loved even more how they asked their friends and Love's mum for support when they were struggling with their sex lives, it was very open, honest, and healthy, which was really nice to see.
Love's relationship with her mum was very refreshing, they were mother and daughter, sisters, and friends, her mum was her N⁰1 supporter, and she her mothers.
Can't believe they pushed through with Pat/Dean, like my baby Pat was WAYYY too good for Dean, and I felt all of Dean's actions when she was making amends for the past lacked sincerity. Also, what was even so difficult about being truthful and clearing up the misunderstandings? Its not like Dean had some huge secret that if she was honeat about it, their life would never be the same again. She literally created a problem out of nothing.
Wish they would have introduced another character truly deserving and worthy of Pat's love.
All in all, a good but forgettable watch.
I was really enjoying this at one point, but personally, i felt Dean's character single-handedly ruined it.

Not worth watching at all.
I initially started this because I try to watch every new Thai gl coming out. I've never been the type to drop shows because I like to see them through and see the end, so I did finish this one. If I did drop shows, I definitely would've dropped this one.I wasn't going to take the bad acting into account because it's low budget, and that's expected, but then I realized that I've seen many other low-budget gls and never noticed/hated the acting (I don't have a problem with low-budget shows, given that I like a lot that I have seen, just something about this one I guess).
As for the actual plot and storyline, I just didn't vibe with any of it; it was executed poorly. I wasn't eagerly waiting for the next episode each week at all.
- Not worth the watch

Really ???
OK, I find this series randomly and try to watch it.I like this series when I watch first episode, its feel like.. "Ah, I have a trauma and pain because of love"
Then I realize that I should face it and not close my heart too long.
The series is good when we see the person who really in pain because of their love.
Allow another love to heal us, or let the pain consume us ?
Well, I like the moral in here but..
More I watch, the story then change and have another red flag love story issue to be fixed.
I hate the second couple. Not mean Pat, but I think they should kick out Dean from Pat life instead they make them together ?
Last eps kinda not make sense at all.
What on earth we talk about sex with mother ?? Oh C'mon.
Family vibe is good, but.....
I drop the whole rating because the second couple and last eps.
Who is there that also skip a lotof Dean scene ? or am I the only one who do that ?

easy qt story
it was cute.i'll start with the major cons:
- technical: need a different camera or put more work into framing and shot choices. they probably had a limited amt of time but post could have been tighter. do some coloring and tighter editing. the audio was fine. obviously it wasn't perfect but you can tell they tried to clean it up. not sure why they dubbed footsteps but oh well.
- story/pacing: partially because of the technical stuff. it was jumpy and not very consistent but i could get the point. that's probs it's because problem. not much goes on and what does go on can be frustrating particularly with the second couple
if you can deal with that it's a cute easy watch. i appreciated that they had a variety of different women and particularly the inclusion of, and overt being, of bisexuality. this genre tends to elide it or pretend it's just a side thing. it's really rare and that shocked me and probably endeared me to this drama more. thte main couple was so cute! at first they were a little awkward kissing but then they got much better at it. wish they could take their fucking clothes off somehow tho and this is something gl needs to figure out. literally limited because of our boobs and patriarchy. awesomeee...
second couple...pat...girl you are too beautiful for this. her and deane were fine and had chemistry but like at the end i was like bitch whatever lmaooo couldnt pay me to fuck a girl who told me she was using me again BYE BYE. bullshit. but whatever
the friendship was rly rly rly cute!!!! and the advice! and love and her mom! i have huge parent issues so seeing that i was like omg mom...i wish my mom was like that! and the discussions of their lives and sex was cool. it's little things like this that make it an enjoyable experience even through the frustration. and the women who play the main couple—if given the chance to work together more—could really make something strong and intense.
also the acting wasn't that bad. deane's actress was the weakest but the other three as they work more can carve out their skills. a lot of their discussions were based off the lines but the way they delivered it was improvisational at times. the (familial) chemistry that love and her mother had is one of the best. this had a kdrama feel to it which i liked. obviously they had a smaller budget and the cast is sparse but with what they had? not bad at all. it's meandering but if you want something sweet to watch i'd recommend it. you can always skip what you don't like but it's a cute story with a good atmosphere. i enjoyed the portrayals of friendship, the discussions and i saw an evolution of rain and pat. the three of them and love and rain's rship stole it! i appreciate this drama!

what the heck!
So, I decided to give this series a try since I was already watching three others and wanted something fresh. Unfortunately, it wasn’t worth my time at all. The lead actresses of Love and Rain had previously starred in another GL series, which at least had a coherent plot, but this one—honestly, what was the writer thinking? The plotlines are underdeveloped and poorly executed.The message was golden but the delivery was way too poor.The characters are flawed, which is fine because, after all, we're all flawed in real life. But Love’s personality is almost too perfect, like a golden retriever—a typical choice for one of the leads. Rain is… well, Rain, I don't blame her though, She's been through enough.The relationship between Love and her Mum was absolutely refreshing. And yeah, the way Rain and Love were dealing with their love life, it was commendable. Dean and Pat's character development (or lack thereof) is disappointing, to say the least.
Honestly, all of them could benefit from more acting lessons.
If you value your time, skip this one. But if you’re willing to waste it, go ahead and watch.

After watching two episodes, I've come to the conclusion that this series isn't my cup of tea.
I’m constantly on the lookout for new GL series, but the acting was disappointing.Right from the start, I felt a wave of annoyance as the coworkers were excessively dramatic. Their acting skills were lacking, to say the least. But since they were just random characters, I decided to brush it off. I just want to highlight that it’s unusual for a series to irritate me so quickly.
The cheating boyfriend? The way the infidelity was "found out" came across as poorly executed...
Plus, what was going on at the bar with that woman touching another woman's cheek with her nose? It was just cringeworthy.
Sadly, the second episode failed to make me eager for the next one. I don't feel a strong connection to any of the characters.
I wasn't particularly moved by the flashbacks either. Even though Rain is Love's love at first sight, the scenes from the past didn’t make me feel any excitement about them meeting eachother again.
I was hoping to find more GL series to enjoy, but this one just isn't hitting the mark for me. While Love and Rain are beautiful, the plot feels weak, and sadly, the acting can't save it.
