nah I do as well just not on my main save. But only if we get a way to keep them together and change Ian for the better. Cause without changing him it's just too toxic and she is better as friends with him and the MC. Cause while he is a pos at times, he also is a bro to the MC so hard to hate him 100% especially when everyone else at the club but Hanna is worst than him.

She's NOT. That's her mask: if you start dating her you will discover her true self and her inner demons.
And Ian just doesn't love her. He doesn't even like her, too.

The latter, agree to disagree. The former, i counted that in when i wrote what i wrote. I could divulge if you want to read it, but as it stands unless you ask me to i do not want to write an essay.

I can't help but feel that Ian is really, REALLY mischaracterized...

To me, the question of whether MC should be in a relationship with Mina is a separate question from whether she should be with Ian. The Edwin x Mina question is dependent on the Ian x Mina question (unless we're talking about a poly relationship
), but whether we like Edwin with Mina or not doesn't change the fact that it doesn't seem like Ian and Mina are a good fit.Sure, Ian can be rehabilitated into a good man. He's got a lot of good traits and he's young enough to grow out of his bad habits. I don't think it's a short path to loving himself enough to not continue to be a womanizer or a relationship self-saboteur, especially in his current occupations. Mina's got her own issues with confidence and self-image, not to mention that her mother poorly modeled romantic relationships.
However long it would take for Ian to become "boyfriend material" and for Mina to figure out who she wants to be, I doubt the relationship is salvageable. Yea, they were a cute couple, but I didn't get the "true love" vibes from them. It takes more than being cute together to get over betrayal. They don't have a previously solid, long-term relationship that can help them pull through the tough times of rebuilding the trust. Even if the relationship can be put back together, is that kind of baggage going to make for a happy, healthy relationship? Is the relationship worth her effort to have to put their history out of mind and pretend that she's not constantly worried that he'll do the same thing again? Is Ian a strong enough man to humbly and calmly reassure her when she breaks down over her doubts about him?
Letting these two guide each other from pseudo-adulthood into true adulthood is a recipe for a breakup in three-and-a-half years with two very poisoned hearts. My cost-benefit analysis of the risks versus rewards of reestablishing the relationship puts the expected returns too low to justify the expenditure. They should cut their losses and become better people for their next relationships.
Clearly I'm biased, projecting my own real world experience onto TD's imaginings, but this is how I like to look at realistic plots like this. If the question is whether TD can put these two "back together" long enough so we can see another double date scene, sure it'd be completely believable. Plenty of people hurt each other, break up, get back together, then rinse and repeat for years, but I'm not sure that reading another version of a scene we've already witnessed is worth the disappointment I'd feel in watching the MC let his friends do that shit to each other. I think we all know that several of the plot lines in PC are zero-sum, so I'm looking for as many realistic happy endings as possible.
Only a few thing I would add onto this when it comes to Ian's character. After Mina broke up with him I couldn't but feel that's when he realized how much he did like or potentially love her. To me the break up is what probably will be what changes him for the better. As after there was a few sex scenes with him I couldn't help but feel he wasn't happy and didn't care as much to be a womanizer but still does it since he has no one anyone he cares about. I may be totally wrong but that's just my take / addition but I do agree with everything you said.To me, the question of whether MC should be in a relationship with Mina is a separate question from whether she should be with Ian.

Right here:
Trust takes years to build, seconds to break, and forever to repair
And Ian did so much damage to this, it's beyond fixing. You can trust a stranger faster than you can trust someone who stabbed you in the back. And Ian didn't do that to a friend, he did that to a woman he is supposed to love.
But look at everything I wrote earlier and Ian doesn't really know what love is. This just firmly cements that he gotta view his own self and come to a conclusion or be a more destructive man than Chuck to the women he hurts through his actions.
That's the crux of the argument.

But surely then...on that hypothesis...he'd just not just use women for meaningless sex at all? There really isn't any self-restrospection in reality...he just an ass who thinks of himself. Surely if he realised what you think he does...he'd not have a woman over to use as an object for his own purposes.
I didn't mean he'd stop cold turkey right away but just I think it is what will get to slowly stop over time. Again that's just the impressions I got from a few scenes with him after the Mina break up and probably wrong.

So far I haven't really seen that from him. It seems more like a
kinda situation for him.The only woman he has real feelings for seems to be Victoria as a surrogate mother and so far I haven't really noticed any change in his behavior towards women.
Maybe im miss remembering but I wrote that post I was thinking about the scene when he was on the phone with the MC at night on the balcony. From what I recall it was shortly after the break up and he was asking about her alot. That was the scene that gave me that impression the most.

I don't know...some of his dialogue could almost be read as him being relieved that it is over for the sake of Mina.

I think it's a bit of both. He can be regretful over losing Mina and happy for her that she's free of him. It shows he's not an unredeemable asswipe, aware that she's better off without him. While at the same time, he knows there could have been a different reality where he was a good boyfriend and they were happy together.

Yes, at least he realizes that he was an ass to her and that she deserves much better. That is more than can be said about a lot of assholes treating their wives or girlfriends badly.

Anyone noticed how Abel and Sophia have the same name color and outline? Sophias outline is just ever so slightly brighter.
I wonder what that means. No other 2 characters have name styles this similar.
I swear I can fix her
