human relationships, especially romantic relationships, are valued by social constructs. these are artifacts of history, nothing more. i dont see why polygamy is considered cheating, bu ti can understand the biologically based aversion to it in certain involved parties. however there is no reason why the situation cannot be resolved in a different way or seen ina different light.
anyway it is clear that im rather peculiar in this sort of stuff so dont argue with me about it unless you want to write sociology papers.

I won't judge anyone on their beliefs, it just sucks that if you do cheat and one of or more of your partners find out, alot of the time they are devastated and crushed. That is the problem I have.
I do have a question. If you are seeing multiple women, would you mind if they saw multiple men? it would only be fair if they could do it as well. |

Teenagers.
Well after watching that episode its just becoming more and more painfully clear makoto is the absolutely worst match for kotonha possible. She reads romance novels and dreams of grand things where making love is a thing of beauty whereas makoto...Well just wants to get laid hah. I know itd take all the drama out if he just went with sekai at this point, but it would be the best choice for everyone to me. The two of them are pretty in sync and she somehow manages to handle this idiot pretty well.

well of course i would have to take into consideration others' feelings and reactions. i'm not going to hurt anyone, but no one has to be hurt. the whole structure of attitudes toward this sort of thing is the variable, while the principle of 'happiness for all' is not variable.
why do these things anyway, for fun and other fulfillments. if you can't even get that, for everyone, then dont do it.

Eh, that is your way. Whatever works for you. If everyone knows about it(Whoever you are seeing), then at least no broken hearts will occur.
Anyways, we should stop this before a my opinion vs your opnion fight ensues amoung the various people here. |

What about Sekai? Surely shes as bad as Makoto if not worse, she was the one encouraging him to go further, came up with the idea and also went behind Kotonha's back. Shes the one whos been pulling the strings on Makoto's relationship. Even though it started off unintentional by her so I think, I'm glad ehr feelings about him started to show but she is just as wrong as Makoto.

After watching episode 1, I thought "I hope Makoto and Kotonoha end up together".
After watching episodes 3 and 4, I thought "I hope Makoto dies a terrible death". That being said, I can't stop watching this disastrous love triangle.

If ur referring to her "taste" in men, then yea thats a problem but then it would probably apply to most of the other girls in this, or for that matter every girl in any harem series ever

her problem is that she needs to stop acting as the "in between person" between kotonoha and makoto...letting them breakup first then hooking makoto with her line is fair enough but what she is doing right now is just annoying...

The man with the plan

the thing about this anime is how irritating all the characters happen to be. every last one of them lacks any incentive to empathize with. makoto is a jerky and indecisive asshat, sekai is an in-denial middleman, and kotonoha is relentlessly annoying.
the worst offender, though, is kotonoha. i doubt she even likes makoto at all; she just wants and expects so much more out of the relationship than he would bother to provide. people, you should never enter a relationship expecting more than you're going to get. and on the topic of cheating and all that bull, i am a strong believer in keeping to one girl. i know, being a teenager doesn't exactly mean you have the full understanding or willingness to stick with one person, but for the sake of decency you should end things if you wish to pursuit someone else. i'm 17 at this point in time, but i have one of the most amazing girls in the world as my girlfriend and it's well beyond simple courtesy that i'm even with her. it's plenty possible for teenagers to fall in love, i believe, and while i get temptations now and then to cheat, i stay true to what i really want. not that it applies to everyone, however you should spare the guilt and heartbreak by making smart decisions at any age. |
