I dont know many people who wouldnt walk away getting things like that dropped on them honestly, I personally do this just so I can digest it and not just go off without thinking, which happens just about as often as walking away and I later regret it. MC right now is a wreck, he walks in on his mom and her BFF making out topless in the pool, makes a snap call on that being why his parents broke up and then gets the Hiroshima of all revelations dropped on him
. Anyone that can take a double whammy like that and not need to walk away and clear their head has some serious mental/emotional problems or a serious lack of emotions. Then finding out about Alexis and Erynn being BFFs, yeah walking away was the best option in both cases. Dude needs to get his head straight before trying to tackle that kind of stuff.
