I never really saw your 1st issue of much of a negative if im being honest. Since she did try to talk with him a little after just not immediately but he wouldn't see her. That and try to think of myself if I was in her shoes and as much as I would want to leave Ethan and check up on him asap I probably wouldn't either , being the passive person I am. I would mostly like just try to get Ethan to leave first before going to check up on him.I never liked Erynn for two reasons:
1. When Ethan bullies the MC as a kid when he professes his love for Erynn, she stays with Ethan rather than going to see how the MC was doing... like Alexis did.
2. You mentioned the way they are together. When I read those scenes it reminds me of how a girl treats a guy she friend laddered. She uses him for all kinds of friend and emotional support stuff while giving none of the benefits.
Plus she's always in trouble, always needs help and she looks like a plecostomus.
#2 well that just comes to how wee see things. For me an ideal girlfriend is someone that can be playful and act like a friend like in those moments I like rather than be a girlfriend 100% of the time.
I do admit her being in trouble and needing help is what got me to like her in the first place.
Also looks don't matter to me once I like a LI

So you would prefer if the thread descended into people throwing stupid insults around about certain LI's that they didn't like? Insulting their appearance as you did? I think someone needs a nap..

Dessolos you are definitely the man. You broke my brain twice with this one post. First, being a very high energy extrovert, I never really thought of it from a passive person's perspective (three Ps!). Now that I do I'm actually a bit less pissed about it.
The second thing was your talk of an ideal girlfriend. It's not that I don't like the things she does with him but she should be banging his freaking brains out at this point if she's really interested. All the crying and letters and pouring her heart to Alexis and still... the action is minimal. So I actually agree with you on how it could be if things were really right... I just want the cherry on top as well.
Peace brother.

And don't forget: Erynn's only had one partner, Zane. A sex tape (willingly or not) was made and it's ruining her life. She has a sexual predator (Ethan) assaulting her and trying to force her into sex. She probably is gonna find it hard to relax and have sex again that easily.Dessolos you are definitely the man.

I'm trying to think about this from a more passive perspective like Dessolos. The writer is gonna write what they want but she should have stopped that at "sex tape" since, if she was filmed without consent, that's a crime. I was making a joke earlier about Elena but if Ethan had taped her and tried to use it against her she'd have told him to fuck off and flattened his nutsack against her cheerleading sneakers. It always seemed to me like Erynn gave her power to Ethan without a fight. Now though... if I imagine her as the passive damsel that she might be... I guess I can give her a pass

Dude, she wants to be a teacher. A sex tape released would permanently kill that career for her, not to mention damage her reputation in general. Willingly or not, criminally or not. The world isn't fair about this shit.I'm trying to think about this from a more passive perspective like Dessolos.

Hmm. I think if she had made a porn and had it released that would kill her teaching career. Some guy peeping and filming through a window when anyone might expect privacy on the other hand. Maybe you're right... fair is a human concept.

Ok I don't mean to bring things to a screeching halt but when did the narration of the sex scenes come into play? It's gotta be new for v14 right? I'm sure I'd remember it. I'm just now reading this MC and Melissa scene and it's like I'm reading a romance novel from the greeting card aisle in the grocery store!
Edit: Maybe it's because it's a dream?

I think Erynn makes an okay friend, if a little naïve and seems to have a really hard time telling people no. I also think she makes a terrible girlfriend for the same reasons. She falls for Ethan's shit time and time again and once she's finally realizes he's a classic douche, he's got something on her and is trapped. Of course, being the intelligent, mature person she is, she's gonna deal with it herself, and not involve anyone around her, like Melissa. Melissa knows what kind of damage a sex tape could do to Erynn, no matter the field she was trying to go into.
Alexis checking on MC after the confession was sweeter than almost anything Erynn has done story wise. Erynn showing up later to check on MC after he starts avoiding her (how much time passed?) is just her being too little, too late. Of course, we know from the letters she wrote that she did make a considerable effort to try to patch things up. It still doesn't scream romance to me at all, it's just a friend missing her other friend.
The only time I see what I'd consider romance with MC is the photoshoot, where it's a forced interaction (you make the choice as the player, but if you're interested in Erynn, you're not gonna leave her hanging here). All the other times are the MC taking a step (or the rare case early on where she makes a move and it's a huge mistake to accept it) and then getting frustrated sexually because she can't reciprocate.

The irony of professing yourself an Iris lover and then criticising Erynn's looks. You do realise that Nyx deliberately gave both girls similar features because they're half-sisters?

Do you realize that you don't know what a plecostomus looks like? Here let me help you. So if it seems to you that Iris' gorgeous mouth and Erynn's suction cup are "similar features" that's all good. To each his own.

You should have chosen Elena to pick on. She's a lot more suction cuppy than Iris. Still prettier though

Time to rank all the girls in terms of "suction-cupiness."

She was a teen meeting new people on a new school, a teen we know turned a lot of heads and grabbed a lot of attention, it's unrealistic to expect that she would just turn everyone away.
Erynn stays behind to try and shut Ethan down, you can argue wether that was the right decision or not, but she was put on the spot and had to make this call in the heat of the moment... then she goes to see him the same day, right after he locked himself in his room and Emily tells her not to.
Even before the recent letter much was said of the effort she put into reconnecting with him, how much she thought about him and wanted him back in her life, on this part the MC is definitely to blame for ignoring her and making as hard as humanly possible to reconnect.
Neither girl thought of him sexually before that day(probably why there's so many scenes of Erynn thinking about how he grew up nicely), he was a little kid for them...
Erynn is slow to progress for 2 things:
1-She's scared to lose her friend, she worries that if they date and it doesn't work out it will lead to a cold and distant relationship, for her this is a real worry, she wants to remain close to him always, so this is something she must take into consideration, the risk vs reward(this was more a thing early on then now, but still a little bit).
2- Her bad experience surrounding sex, she had sex and it led to years of torment... she was left traumatized by the experience, so jumping into bed isn't something she just does.
Every small step of gaining comfort around the MC is character development/progress in her case.
