the difference between my quote and yours is that you are talking about the past.... im talking about how i think a cheater would behave during an affair. vivian is acting like a cheater in the update not pointing to the past which we may or maynot get to know about. this is my view not gonna change that.None of that points to her being a serial cheater, or even having once cheated in the past though.
As for the nymphomania stuff, it's just not consistent with what we've seen. A nymphomaniac has a high desire for sex, usually with multiple different partners. She wants it all the time, and she actively tries to get it. What we see here is someone who initially has the equivalent of a one-night stand - she meets Christian for the first time, he takes her home (sort of...) and they have sex, which regardless of how you see the evening playing out, she is reluctant about. That they have sex multiple times that night does not qualify her as a nymphomaniac (if anything, it would actually point to Christian being one, given his actions). They then meet up again and have sex once more (just once, this time) a few days later.
If Vivian was a nymphomaniac, she would have been jumping on Christian, instead of just reluctantly allowing it to happen. She'd have been the one instigating it. She (probably) wouldn't have been crying about it in the shower the next morning, she'd (probably) have been rubbing one out, or trying to get more. She would have at least flirted with the mechanic, if not actually tried to jump him, she maybe would have at least tried to invite Rupert in, especially knowing that her house was likely to have been empty at the time. The twins and Marcel you can't include at this point because of opportunity (being in school, and being around Sawyer), but if circumstances were different, a nymphomaniac would have likely jumped on them as well.
There's a big difference between a nymphomaniac and just someone who likes sex, or even has a high sex drive.
I try to see both sides of things, but I admit that I don't get this argument at all. The absence of any evidence (not even concrete evidence) of cheating is all we have, there's nothing on the other side of the coin that points to Vivian having done it in the past. The possibility that something could have happened doesn't mean anything. There's a possibility that Vivian was born Victor and had a sex change, or at least there's no concrete evidence that that wasn't the case...
Marcel is a student who appears to have a crush on Vivian, and she is being polite and smiling at him. I'm not even sure I'd go so far as to call it flirting, it's just being a nice person (hell, it's even possible that she is blind enough to it that she doesn't realise he has a crush on her). The mechanic is a bit like Christian (in her first meeting with him) in that he is being very forward and has a physical presence that he's pretty much putting into her personal space. I'd have to place it again, but I don't recall her being forward with him, she is a bit taken aback as far as I recall, and shocked at what she can see because she wouldn't expect to see someone poking out of his shorts in that scenario.
I personally think portraying Vivian as a cheater in the past would make the story less real, since then there wouldn't really be any of the corruption that is quite obvious here. There wouldn't be the internal conflict that drives several of the scenes, it would solely be about trying to hide it from Hutch. If you think that's all there is, that she's cheated before and this is just another notch on the bedpost for her to keep secret, then it's like you and I are playing two different games!
I still think Hutch made a mistake that he didn't realise, here. I don't think he intentionally opened up the marriage in the way most of us would take that comment. I think he specifically refers to Christian, and Christian alone (because why would he think that Vivian would suddenly need or want to go finding lots of strange cock elsewhere?).
Although I still think there's a good chance that Christian will be the only partner for Vivian during the game, in a scenario where she does have sex with others (be it the mechanic, any of the students, or someone we've not yet met), I think she would do so with the understanding that Hutch allowed it by opening the marriage, but from Hutch's side it would be a betrayal because he didn't mean for her to have other partners, just Christian.
the nymphomaniac stuff again you quote a dictionary definition but both the british dictionaries don't say anything about multiple partners, only just people with high sex drive. you are assuming which isn't fact, since the key word being "usually". the fact being, black talking about his relationship(not prying just referencing here) with one is how he is interpreting vivians actions, not from quoting a dictionary definitions which again doesn't say anything about having multiple partners... just high sex drive.
you are talking about the past but it's quite clear the the update which shows her sniffing her lovers shirt and keeping it. she is only acting like that in front of hutch like she is a faithful wife over the course of the update. like messaging the husband while she is having sex with her lover. or talking things out with her lover instead of the husband. these i think are typical signs of a cheater not that she was a cheater in the past but she is a cheater now. and shedding tears when she is caught. like most tictok videos
don't remember who but it was already posted theory about the side characters being active partners of vivian in the future... might be duke. but the dev did say there will be a event with the mechanic or he will be involved in one the future. so maybe duke or the one who posted vivian will be of the streets might be true. since there is a interracial(future possiblity) tag in the script file which again is a 50-50.
i have agree that hutch did a mistake yes but the choice was not given to him as vivian says in the bathroom she will convince hutch to let her go out with christian after having sex. having heard that and being manipulated by the boss and hutch being a weak character(for now in the game) was out of options. he even said do it and dont do it (you didn't take that into consideration) that is hutch letting vivian do what she wants all throughout the update. the ball is in vivians court metaphorically and she chose to go ahead and do it it's like letting a cheater do whatever she wants. and vivian is happy that she gets best of both worlds.
i really don't want to hate vivian but there are so many flaws that i think are intentionally shown so that the reader dislikes vivian. vivian being the vital mc for the story based on her and hutch's mindset at the end of 3rd update that's when the most important plot point maybe depicted/explored by the dev. just an assumption and completely aligns with what you wrote in the last paragraph.
