I figure it's because I haven't yet made it all that clear to everyone why MC reacted that harshly to what Julie has done.
When I started writing the story I didn't think it would be this hard to bring up the subject of why he reacted this way, but it is. I am going to explain it in Chapter 4. MC does mention it a couple of times that it was because accusing him of cheating was the first thing she thought of saying to hurt his ex. That she used him to "get at" someone without hesitation. And that broke his trust.
Trust is something that's a really BIG thing for him.
That's an easy trap to fall into as writer.
You know the story and the characters.
We the players can only judge on what we see.
MCs ex-gf is a cunt that treated his best friend like shit. She even baited her. He obviously didn't catch on. I agree that trust is important. It's for most people. The thing that bugs me is that he just accepted it without talking to anybody.
Maybe MC should study something related to people. Trust isn't the problem. His lack of understanding others is.
