No,getting out of current relationship is not Josy`s motivation and it goes beyond the need for physical aspect of a relationship,its not the realtionship with Maya that makes her unhappy but lack of Maya as a whole on top of her own issues.
Emotional needs is exactly what pushed her into another guys arms(MC`s arms that is).
The dinner conversation you bring up,is her trying to justify her feelings for the MC while being with someone else and acting on those feelings.
Maya did stood up to her father,she resigned from her fathers money to be with Josy and Im pretty sure Josy is well aware of the situation.The plan was to go to the same college to be together,Maya was holding the 2nd bed for Josy,specificly.The things went even deeper south when Josy did not got admitted in the first batch and was pretty low on the waiting list,that what made Josy feel like giving up.
Than you are ignoring everything that matters.
Feel like already explained Josy`s situation - her parents divorce is heavy on her,she did not got admitted to college,at the time she feels like she wont be able to be with Maya - the combination of her circumstances makes her feel vulnarble,emotional support and not fucking is exactly what she needs right now,due to the long distance,its also something she does not get from Maya at the time.
Maya does not feel accepted,she is sacrificing her familky ties to be with Josy and than feels like Josy ghosted her,I can imagine it made her feel rejected and also being at a very vulnarble stage of her life.
In both cases there comes MC offering exactly what both of them need - attention,affection,understanding,support...
I partially agree with the last part,yes the tasks made the 2 grow closer and in relativly short amount of time(in name of my Baby - you`re welcome
) but "it made Maya feel good"?Really?Like everytime she felt guilty,regretful and apologizing?We might have different definitions of feelin` good
Minoruxxx - Dont worry Im not a Maya hater,just keeping it real
