Would you lie to someone you loved for their protection and to protect their happiness? Keep in mind: one answer will make you a hypocrite, the other a liar.
Yeah...sorry, but what a load of nonsense.
She is protecting absolutely no one with her lies/secrets, least of all the MC and she sure as hell isn't protecting the happiness of the MC with it, if anything the opposite...
Guilty until proven innocent. How.....reasonable.
Well, if one is a notorious liar, which lied about pretty much anything for years to you...
So yeah, taking anything about that person with a grain of salt is reasonable.
The only venom in all of this is from guys that think a woman protecting them and lying to them about it is the most evil thing a woman could do to a man. The man gets to do those things, not the woman.
You're still on with that misogyny nonsense, doesn't matter if it is a man or woman who lies, same treatment for both, that is also as most people i knew treat it. Never heard a friend or acquaintance in real life saying it's fine if the man does it, but condemned it if it was done by a women.
If the MC would be in Kajia's role i sure as hell wouldn't blame her for being pissed at the MC or breaking up with him, completely understandable. Honestly i would have cheered on her if she kicked him in the balls after she finds out about all the secrets and lies.
