Unfortunately, I'm getting really frustrated with the cognitive dissonance that isn't really addressed in the story with Jayden, Ed, and Merry. I tried playing Ed as loyal, but the narrative just won't let me. There are all these scenes where the story puts words into the mouth of the character that feels inconsistent with the choices he makes.
Jayden for instance. I played him as the morally superior dominant that got angry at his girlfriend for cheating on him, humiliated both her and her lover, and then rejected her as a slut. So, he ended the relationship, when he could have abandoned the moral high ground, kept her on the side as a disposable lover and treated her like the slut she is.
But, now he's essentially playing the role of the male asshole/dog he humiliated previously . . . which doesn't make sense to me. Especially since he's playing it off as if he was egregiously betrayed by his girlfriend, is holding Merry up as some kind of paragon and Ed as a guy, who's always been there for him. He's trying to cheat with her behind his friend/her husband's back. There's a disconnect between those two versions of Jayden.
Furthermore, Jayden told that story of moral superiority, betrayal, and humiliation to Merry, who also seems OK with falling into the role of the slut girlfriend Jayden rejected. Who knows.
There is a lot of confusion and a lack of consistency in how many of the characters are portrayed. So, I just started fast-forwarding through the narrative to get to the fap material because the story was making less and less sense to me.
