Agreeing that somebody belongs to everyone implies that nobody can have exclusive rights over that person, thus neutralising disturbances caused by competition and jealousy. I don't think it's supposed to be a permanent solution.
Exactly, and even in KnT that pact was the of a girl who was head and tail in love with Kazehaya and was only use it as part of her stalling tactic.

While I do agree that Taichi has done a lot for Chihaya since the form the clubs, I just don't think he is sympathetic.

I just think that he was simply too afraid to act and using Arata as excuse for himself.

Either way though I really don't mind how this will eventually end.

Like I said, Arata's got a better pairing right now, at least IMO...
