i get your point here, but thats not what i meant...I agree to that, i was happy with the whole Fuck buddy thing and then the author goes and forces us into making it a real relationship. That should had been a choice like "Stay Fuck Buddy" or "Go for More", i was given the choice to "fight for Jill" or not, but now thanks to Elena not keeping her big mouth shut, unless i chose just sage, i still get to be her friend but i lose the awesome Fuck Buddy thing they had going. I mean the whole point of dating is to date, dating is not engaged or even "going steady" if they would still use that kiddie saying, not decide to just one girl based off a date or not even a date with most of the girls, it's his first semester in college and he is having a blast, it shouldn't turn that serious that fricken quick. She happily fucked him and Quinn so it shouldn't upset her later when she learns that he fucked half the house, and still is, if they were still Fuck Buddys it wouldn't be that bad as opposed to his just being her friend or her even actual boyfriend
iam talking more from the romantic side...
I get it, there are many guys and girls who can get along with open-relationships or fuck-buddy things... i just cant.
In a game like this it could have worked out with a open-realtionship or the fuck buddy thing an i would have been ok with it for the Sage route until certain things happened...
First of all, how the whole relationship starts is just... ugh... come on, who wants to date a girl going out with Chad? Uff... Thats the first point...
second, she is just jumping the MC to spite Chad, nothing more... who really wants that?
third... out of just spiting chad... it goes to a fuck buddy thing without any feelings... hm nah dont see that, i was once in a fuck-buddy relationship for some time, but it wouldnt have worked if the girl had a relationship going on and is suffering from the end of it... no way. cause this ist just...meh
than more or less out of nowhere the MC wants more than to be a fuck-buddy and rebound guy, but sage doesnt like that storms out and let the MC standing in the rain... nice?
short time later she tells the mc she doesnt use him as a rebound guy... girl, but thats exactly what you were doing the whole time. Of course the MC is to blame too in this case... cause he is going along with that for too long.
than we get a threesome with quinn, and she likes it very much that the MC is fucking antoher girl... after that, they want to start a serious relationship... come on, what the fuck? How is this gonna work?
I cant just buy this relationship with sage one bit. Its just not working in any case... even a open-fuck-buddy thing is not working if am looking back how the whole relationship went so far... its just... a mess.
And in the end of ep8 it just feels like DPC decided to give us the option to go for sage, cause this very option was there for the other LIs too. Its kinda forced without reason. Its just not working... maybe with some more time yeah it could work out, but now? Not so much... its way to jumpy overall.
