this was a love/hate relationship and honestly so tragic. the guy loved the girl so much but she was always into the SML, and then at the end years later she has the audacity to come back. The ML's entire life is just so tragic, and he just wants someone to love who loves him back... The SFL loved him and sacrificed alot, and he accepted her but she sacrificed again for him and he didnt even realize or get with her at the end. He still reminisced on the FL at the end and the FL always had an open door to come back, even though she was the only one cheating the entire time. She doesn't care that SML's brother literally ran her over, but rather was "scared" that ML was going to do something to hurt her the entire time, when he literally wouldn't lay a hand on her bc he has only wanted her. I can see where it feels burdening for FL, but this mans became rich just to provide for you and take care of you, and ONE trip with another guy pushed everything he's done away as a bad thing. Yeah SML cared about the girl's interests but FL never even got to know or ask ML his interests too. It felt like ML was attempting to learn how to date properly bc he didn't want to mess it up, and rather than help him she just cheats and breaks his heart. Idk ML did so many nice things for her, but has SML done all of these things besides getting to know you? I can get an online friend to care about my interests, but finding someone who will break their back and isolate themselves just for me to be happy and have financial freedom so i can reach my goals eventually is just so much more beautiful and touching. SML was always living in his head and unrealistic with his life views, he just blamed everyone else and didn't even listen to the person who experienced the event he was mad about, he just takes and takes whats given and never gives back. He was a snake and sly, and always played a victim and FL loved that. How could FL realistically go for her passions and dreams, when she doesn't have the financial freedom to do those things? It's like SML was manipulating her and using those aspirations to reel her in, when he was living in the clouds but the ML was on the ground working hard so she can achieve those things. Like out of all the things that ML has done for you how can you never believe him and think he did all those poor things with bad intentions towards you like you being dropped from her "dream job", when SFL was out to get you. ALSO, the AUDACITY FL had when ML gave her the clothes, the trip, the experience in Guam and she pretended like had those things and gave the credit to the "happiest days of her life" to the SML who also got to be in Guam because of the ML too??? Like yall both were broke, and act like those dreams can come instantly when in reality yes you need money and ML worked hard and DONATED his money to both of those charity grabbers like they actually believed it was a "scholarship" that they deserved.

I honestly think FL liked SML bc he was always beneath her especially in terms of persona bc he was the lowest and always sought revenge and was unhappy even when he already had the girl, whereas ML still looked at the positives and always gave and was generous and forgiving, and FL was intimidated for how great of a man he was that she was just projecting her own guilt and insecurities onto him bc she couldn't handle how much wore of a person she was. Out of all of this, she never cared about the relationship between all of the guys but always herself. I honestly think FL got this personality from her father. her mother was right that she stayed with the dad for love and look where it got her, he was still treating her poorly and making bad decisions. The father never like ML bc he still had an ego and inferiority from him around, and projected onto him as well. The father is the one that went to loan sharks and thugs, and was shocked that thugs did that to him when he didn't have the money. After all those years, when ML literally kept FL's dignity, he paid for his medical bills, provided for his daughter's tuition, etc. he still thought about the "worst" time in his life when he literally brought it to himself and the ML basically saved the father's life from dying by bringing him back/finding him. Like the father really thought money should be given to him and people will understand that he can't pay it back, and then get so hell bent that they tried to get their returns with no benefits?? All of these characters were so ungrateful except ML and (i would also include SFL but she also connived and used all of this info that ML has wanted all of his life for a LONG time to get him back.. and then pity him when others try to do it to him too the same way she did, and she prided on herself for loving ML when she couldn't let him be happy with FL). ML in the end let FL go and was happy for her, and for someone who never loved before he was the only one who TRULY knew what love was which I really admired. He always stayed true to himself, and never changed for the worse.

Although you can argue that ML should have stayed away from SFL if FL had a problem, but he did that eventually and cut ties with her when he saw how it affected FL. FL still kept SML around and had an affair but still had the audacity to get upset about SFL. Also, ML alot of the times couldn't control how SFL acted or when she showed up or what she said and no one believed him when he tried to explain himself. It's ironic how FL never cares to listen to ML's explanation or ever believe his words, yet says ML never gets to understand her or her dreams/aspirations like its a 2 WAY STREET. Break up with the mans, if you like someone else and want to do things with them like atleast be a decent human being..

I give it a 7 bc many dramas can't pull my heart strings or draw emotions like that from me easily and also for the ML <3
