I agree. Thank goodness for the caretaker. From start to finish we have seen Saenkaew physically and mentally abused. Sasin has been his only ray of sunshine. Pin who was viewed as a friend has become an albatross weighing him down. If I see one more clip of that dreadful wedding I am going to literally scream.

This is so sad. It reminds of a longtime friend I have. At the funeral of another friend he got up to speak. He spoke of how they had grown up together. Then he sighed and said how his own life had been and how his mother had her foot on his neck. He sounded so bitter. At that point it suddenly dawned on me that his mother had made all the decisions in his life including deciding who he would marry. I realized he felt he was just being a dutiful son but ended up living in misery. I hope our guys have a happy outcome.

No she wont let go. She is too selfish. The Prince is her way to feel legitimate and worthy. She actually thinks that by marrying Prince her father and stepmother will finally embrace and accept her. She is too blind at this point to see she is just a pawn. I dont even think this love she has for either Sasin or Prince is real. Love does not see you in pain and just brushes it off to serve your own needs.

I hope you are right.

Happy or not I need Pin out of the way. The scenes with just Prince and Sasin are so heartwarming and so full of love and warmth. Everytime she shows up it feels like all the air is sucked out of the room. I guess I am supposed to feel sorry for her! Sorry but I don’t!

I have asked the same question a thousand times. It is really a turn off. However when I see female characters portrayed like the ones in Memoir of Rati , To Sir With Love. Laws of Attraction and Shine it gives me hope. Still, too many bls seem at a lost as to what to do with female characters except use them as thirsty, lovesick , empty headed foils. Maybe it’s a cultural thing. I grew up in an environment of feisty, strong willed females with high self esteem. You cried in private, wiped your eyes, put on your make up and the prettiest outfit. Then you strutted out with your head held high. Every time I look at Pin groveling and clinging to Prince I get literally ill. Sorry guys, that is just me. I may skip eps 9&10 and just rely on your wonderful spoilers!

Wow! It just hit me! The actress playing the character that is married to Prince’s uncle was also in To Sir With Love. Completely different role, look, tone. Actually the uncle and aunt provide the comedy relief. They are such baffling fools. Even the house Sasin is staying in reminds me of the house
Thian and Jiu lived in as a couple. I really hope all these tidbits lead to a happy ending for Prince and Sasin. As for Pin she needs to sail off into the sunset or at least give Sanya a chance. Right now my only comfort comes in knowing we get two episodes a week. Lol.

Yes yes yes there is enough sadness in real life. That is actually how I stumbled onto bls. Until We Meet Again and Love By Chance were among the first ones I saw. Right now I am enjoying I’m the Most Beautiful Count and The Wicked Game. The only ones that go on my rewatch list are the ones with a happy ending. Take me to la la land please!

I can certainly relate. I grew up around so many dysfunctional relatives that I knew exactly what I didnt want. I talk to a number of young people like you and I tell them you can do bad all by yourself. You dont need help. Being single and at peace and happy is better than being in a toxic relationship. Some people are just not meant to be married and that is ok. Someone I know turned 70 last year. She had never married. Then last year she met her future husband. She thought that ship had sailed. Just be the best you you can be .If it is meant to be you will find each other. Take care.

Thank you but I have to credit my mother and father . They themsekves had suffered so much discrimination it really made them have empathy for others.and to try and educate ourselves and put ourselves in that person’s shoes.when my oldest son divorced his wife I asked him what happened. Part of the reason was she started liking women. She and I had always hadc a good relationship. I had to live what I had had been taught. I loved my granddaughter. I could not suddenly turn on her mother. I said the same to my son. I think they got along better after they divorced.It also made life better for my granddaughter
who loved us all. When my granddaughter graduated from high school I attended her graduation alongwith her dad and her aunt and uncle. Her mother had her graduation party at her home. We all went. There were about 30 of us there. I dont know who was gay or straight. It did not matter. We were all there for the same reason which was to celebrate my granddaughter. I am still learning. My granddaughter recently married. She is not gay. She loves her mom and her dad. She respects her mom’s partner.
That is how it should be. As I said I am still learning and growing.

I am thinking about doing the same because I know the next three episodes are going to be full of heart-wrenching drama and a lot of angst directed at Sasin and Prince.

I really wish the two of them would have just sat her down and told her before now. She already suspects something but already I am getting bad vibes from her. I hate females who resort to tears and playing the blame game. She needs to know even if Sasin had not fallen for Prince she did not have a chance. She acts like she is so innocent when she is just delusional . And all that talk about the three of them has gotten on my nerves. A trouple they are not!

I can tell that despite your age you speak from experience. My roots stem from my family having grown up in a small rural Southern town steeped in Christian conservatism. Lol if they knew I watched bls I would be condemned to fire and brimstone. I too find it somewhat amusing how people who were once discriminated against can themselves discriminate. I worked for a Jewish man when I was in college. He and his sister were the only two members of his entire family that escaped Nazi Germany. Yet he said something once which was blatantly discriminatory. I politely put him in check. Fortunately he apologized and we went on to have a very good relationship. I just finished rewatching To Sir With Love. Please try Shine. I actually didnt find it as depressing as many did.

Sounds like you may be from my generation. I was born in 1948 so I know first hand what it was like during that time. Yes, it was terrible but so was gender discrimination, race discrimination and even age discrimination. I lived through it all. And I witnessed it first hand. There was always a gay community. Many lived on the downlow. Depending on where you lived it was not safe and being subject to physical attacks and ridicule was common. Still, there were those who found support and safety in of all places the church. They also found support from their family. I know this first hand because my first cousin was gay. We did not demean him or cast him out. Whether we agreed with his lifestyle or not we protected him and loved him. We gave him the support he needed to be able to face the cruel world. So while I know the reality of the sixties and even the current climate I do not excuse his father’s cruel and abusive behavior. Yes, many did marry and have children. To the outside world they looked happy. In reality many faced a cold, dismal existence. Their children became collateral damage. I know that side of the story too from first hand experience. The children knew their dad was different or that their mom had a special girlfriend. As you state many countries today still consider homosexuality as a crime punishable by prison or even death. It is my hope that we will have a happy ending for our two which will provide a symbol of hope that even in the 1960s there was a glimmer of hope. If you have not watched the BL Shine I recommend it highly. It too was set in the 1960s and provides another realistic perspective on the gay culture at that time. Sorry for the length. Take care.

I am really sick of Pin and the prince’s evil father at this point! I hate a female who is so thirsty for a man she will stoop to doing anything. She may get him but he wont really be hers! And the father is just ruthless! He needs to die a slow death!

I can’t believe the end is next week. I still have no clue as to how it will end but it has been a great ride. This is a hidden gem. It is so realistic. It reminds me how hard growing up is as you face life decisions. And as parents we want the best for our children but we sometimes get in the way. I remember my parents wanting me to take a certain path. My mom wanted me to teach. My dad wanted me to attend a college his cousin’s daughter was attending. I am so glad when I pushed back they reluctantly let me make my own choice. I have a friend whose daughter has always wanted to be an actress. At fifty she is still chasing her dream. She moved to a large city where she has been cast in various plays and musical productions. Along the way she picked up a couple of degrees. Her side gigs pay the rent. A young relative of mine is pursuing his passion for photography. Another young couple met in college and are chasing their dream of becoming musicians. The husband even toured with a popular recording artist. She sings at various nightclubs and has even cut a few songs. That father seems determined to stop his son. I sense some real resentment and a bit of jealousy. Is he afraid his son will achieve what he couldn’t? And Ack’s mother is wrong in thinking being poor somehow doesn’t give her son the right to love someone rich. From what I see the two actually have made each other better. If nothing more I hope they remain friends. Sorry for the length but there is just so much and I feel like we haven’t even scratched the surface.

So true. My cousin met a man and he seemed to be a perfect match. They both belonged to the same church. They both had beautiful voices and loved to sing. He treated her like a queen. But there was one secret they shared. He liked men. She married him thinking their love was enough. I attended the wedding. It was beautiful.
Unfortunately reality set in less than a year into the marriage. He was unable to suppress his true nature. He could not meet her physical needs. They agreed to divorce. They remain friends. I just hope Pin is able to acknowledge and accept the ir love for each other.

Ep 7 was so so good! The calm before the storm.

I am sorry to hear that but I hope you are living your truth and are surrounded by people who love and accept you. Somewhere out there I have a young cousin. He should
be in his early thirties now. He was in his teens when his parents discovered he was gay. His mother disowned him. His father physically and verbally abused him. We did not handle the situation properly. For awhile we were able to stay in touch. His grandfather and his aunt tried to reach out to him. But several years ago we lost all contact. I just hope he is somewhere safe and happy. I understand how the father may feel but I cannot condone physical or verbal abuse and rejecting your own child. I hope Pin does not become one of those females who believe the person will change with time. A relative of mind tried that. She married the guy knowing he liked men. The marriage did not last. At least they parted ways as friends. This series is hard to take but so good.

Wow! Wow! Wow! Episode seven was so beautiful! Our two guys have finally declared their love for each other and sealed the deal. They both truly look so happy. But we know this is the calm before the storm. Back home the storm is brewing. Fasten your seat belts. We are in for a hell of a ride the next few episodes.
