Well about the reaction to day she was almost raped, true that simple fact would make it kinda asshole move to answer with that, though factually it is a true statement from pov of MC or he could have answered, well I did not want to bring someone that tried to rape me and that you hated to your big party which is exactly what she did right after at his graduation party . Thing is though that fallen indeed does have a point when he lists it as a total. I said it myself as well before even if many of their actions are understandable from their pov and experience. Jaye does have the habit of being to attacking, placing blame and not taking responsibility or take into account how MC might have reacted to/felt about her decisions/tests and her role she played in his actions and blindly does the same years later.it's all a bit forced for dramatic effect, but Jaye doesn't call because she's waiting to be called (then she blocked the number and that's it) and since she doesn't get called she decides not to call (until the mourning)
in the example you give about absence at important moments in both their lives, Jaye's is a joke about a fairly obvious extravagance, MC's counterpart would have been joking about the day Jaye was almost raped... it seems to me to be a reaction a little out of proportion
also the question of the diary doesn't have the same weight, it's true that it's the same gesture, but done to a teenager and to an adult they have a different weight, then MC wanted to know something that she didn't want him to know, Jaye only anticipates the times in discovering something that either Mc or Tara would have told her anyway
then absolutely everything that happens after the exchange of questions is in any case justified, from that moment they know they love each other, on what level we will see
all this does not remove my doubts on the question of the test with Christian, unplanned, so to speak of manipulation is exaggerated, but intentional
Now I asked devs to throw us a bone with Jaye in last update and they did to an extent. Enough that for me I am able to explore a possible relation with Jaye. Is she still flawed as hell though especially in her relations and actions with regard to MC for sure (with that I do not say MC is perfect or acted perfectly either and did not hurt her as well with his actions).
Edit: Now if MC had been honest when she asked him about why he was not there at her graduation party he would have told her that the reason he was not there, never called or contacted their parents was that he just was not able anymore to live with her after all that happened and was unable to handle his own pain especially cause he did care for her and therefore decided it would be best to have as much distance between them as possible, That that was likely best for for both of them, but for sure for him, since he saw no path to making their relation better again after what happened at party and he was not willing to continue to live under the shadow of that and all that had gone before. Likely too early in story though.
