pretty good

i like how this wasn't as black and white as it seemed, it took a trope and actually made a complex enough story out of it

I loved it

This is a nice story that feels like a dream situation of people making mistakes and owning up to them. Life may not go as you want and how you think you’ll deal with a situation isn’t so simple. I’d probably give it a 4.5 if I had an option but I do like that it’s not so cut throat nor ends in a perfect way.

Just ok till the middle then going so wrong

This review contains spoilers. While it has good moment from the middle it went all wrong. Guy watching apology tutorials only regrets for job and reputation. From cheerling the main character it turns into wife enjoys his tries and who went all back into kitchen and giving chances…in the end you know she still looks for excuses to keep him around. That makes me ick vibe

Story that gives heartburn

This review contains spoilers. The ending is very unsatisfying. It is unclear if they will divorce.
The guy should be dumped. He only asked for forgiveness when he realized his life would be disrupted. He would be the type who cheats again.

Realistically complicated

This review contains spoilers. I like that she started standing up for herself, being consistent with her beliefs and decisions.
I understand a lot of people don’t like the ambiguity of the ending, but I think it fits perfectly.

Personally, the very fact that the husband started out the apology as a manipulative tactic only to end up learning from it sincerely and self reflecting on the way, as well as accepting the fact that his reputation and everything will go to ruins due to his actions, that’s a big deal.

Change isn’t easy, and acknowledging that you are horrible isn’t either. It helps that he genuinely started to change and felt sincere regret for what he did afterwards.

Doesn’t mean she needs to forgive him, but it means it’s understandable if she does. It’s not easy to let go of someone you loved nor is it wrong just because you do.

All in all, they both changed for the better, and I hope in their stories, life will get better.

Can’t say the same for the side piece tho, she wasn’t regretful at all. No redemption at all :/

Man it’s so complicated, I love this comic, it depicted it in simple terms.

Great plot (-Warning spoilers-)

This review contains spoilers. I loved the plot in this. It did anger me that the FL stayed as long as she did. And that she forgave and apologized to the mistress, But in the end I think it made her appear morally better.

Is this all?

He definitely got what he deserved. It was also dumb of him to fall into the side piece's traps. She should have been put into custody. The story wasn't bad, but the ending is what made me give it the rating that I did.

Worth a read if you’re in a similar place

This review contains spoilers. I still feel like the mistress should have paid alimony (or some kind of repercussion) but in the end I’m proud that she still left him. I know it’s implying a friendship or something similar in the end but that’s unfortunately realistic.

Very true to real life

This review contains spoilers. I liked that this story keeps it real. In real life not all marriages are good and psychological abuse is an easy way for partners to hurt each other. I really liked the ending because it leaves the future ambiguous and left open to interpretation by the reader in whether she will change her mind and take him back or really complete the divorce and just stay friends.

Good story

This review contains spoilers. It’s a pretty good story so far and I’m really into it. I hope the girl can prove him wrong and make him regret his decision to cheat on her.

It's realistic

This review contains spoilers. Not the ending we hope for as strong independent woman. But realistic because when you think you love someone you try to make it work no matter what. People cheat and somehow make it work or come back stronger in the relationship. If he really changes for the better... if anything at least she's getting him to fix things and entertain her until she finds better. It's left open like that.

So far so good!

Haven’t finished the series yet, but I find it really interesting and a bit unfortunate for the female lead. It really goes to show that people handle things differently.

The husband is really awful and I want to see where the plot leads. Hopefully she leaves him and finds the happiness she deserves!

That’s about right

I mean… saw this coming a mile away lol She still loves him, and as much as he doesn’t deserve any part of it, they probably will make up and hopefully he’ll be better.

I believe it’s now finished! But..

This review contains spoilers. I dunno if people are gonna like the ending. It’s still not a sure thing that they are going to stay apart. In fact, she asks him to help her set up her new apartment, saying the future isn’t set in stone. I honestly loved the story, but the ending has me worried. Even if this scenario happens in rl too

Waste of time

This review contains spoilers. I'll save you the money. It ends with her spending the night at his place and wrestling with if she wants to take him back or not.
No revenge... No satisfying ending.... And they don't plan to update more.
