the way they both went "i would still love you romantically even if it were confirmed that we're sisters" 💀 and then also that last act jealousy subplot. my girlies matched each other's freak and stayed insane and toxic until the very end. kinda love that for them ngl

Rushed ending killed my vibe

no pb 🙂

You'd be right. It is the best. They really did that. I had to pause it so many times and keep closing my eyes. The sounds Pleng was making and Wan talking to her? Goodbye.

Out of context but i wish MDL would include the tag (Triple) F rated and F rated for the content, basically like IMDB. Triple F rated is directed, written and acted by females which rarely happens in cinema (that's why in festival this tag is more relevant). Honestly is wonderful seeing females thriving in popularity (and everyone behin the scene obviously!) thanks to the girls love genre.

wan: hey you're the most important person in my life and i can't live without you
pleng: girl idk :/ i mean same but let's not go there
ek: hey you're the most important person in wan's life and she can't live without you
pleng: oh my god you're so right. thank you. i need to go find her right now

WHYYYYYYY IS THIS MAN'S OPINION SO IMPORTANT TO YOU FUCK HIM I'M LOSING MY MIND

One of the things I HATE about her novels is victimising the men. I don't need to sympathise for nop, kirk, anueng's guy friend, marvin and ek. I wanna hate them just like I hate the annoying women of bls

He cheated, no one pointed a gun at him.
He caught her "cheating" and he's pointing a gun.
Men will forever not be able to handle what they dish out but will be quick to say "it's only a mistake, please forgive me, take me back and let's move on" but are unable to handle it if reverse were the case.
What a joke!😑

I have no complaints about the acting, both are doing great. For me it comes down to how they write Pleng that's just not resonating with me.

I'd go with #2. And in the book, she was scared of losing both their friendship and Wan, the only person she has left in her life if one day their relationship ended. I don't know why the series doesn't cover or talk about her trauma and how had she been through in the past 13 years. They just decided to give dumb Ek a back story which no one would give a f about

why are people blaming pleng😭 between wan and pleng, it was wan that made the wrong decision from the beginning and although ek is a horrible cheater and deserves to d1e, she decided to give him false hope ofc pleng would feel awful and guilty whenever she sees ek, and about the job, i think it's important to acknowledge how pleng has trauma from being a burden to wan and her family and how she suffered all these years without her parents i kinda get her for wanting to have a stable job after all and not depending on wan for everything. both wanpleng are flawed and complicated but they're real.. it's kinda upsetting when i see society always wants female characters to be reasonable

I was getting annoyed but jesus theyre hot lol i wish pleng wasnt such a blank slate sometimes

I think it's two things.
1. Guilt. She's the one who brought Ek and Wan together which caused suffering to everyone involved, including Pleng. So now she wants to make up for her mistakes.
2. She's stuck in a loop of self-sabotaging her relationship with Wan, so she may unintentionally seek out conflict just to ruin things because it's more "safe" than facing her own feelings. She feels that she's not worthy of Wan for various reasons (fear of ruining the friendship, their past, internalised homophobia, disapproving Mom etc.).
Or... 3. The writer just doesn't now how to create a believable conflict 💁‍♀️

Its ek who's "the other wo(man)" not pleng. These companies need to stop buying chao planoy's novels and this is how we'll get less annoying men. One of the things I HATE about her novels is victimising the men which BLs authors NEVER do that to women

I am glad that we were shown that Wan made it clear to her Mom, when she paid homage/respect to her good for nothing Dad after his funeral, that she wouldn't allow Wi to have ANY say in her life from that point onwards. Her Mom basically believed that Wan had to make the choices in her life, (marry into a rich/wealthy family, and not become the side piece), that she never had.

That's a horrible thing for a child to realize about their parent, but Wan lived throughout the choices both of her parents made for themselves and her in her life up until that point.

As for Wan choosing to marry Ek: Yes, she was fully in the wrong for marrying him. But Ek also has to take some responsibility in his decision to marrying a woman that clearly did not share any sort of real love and affection towards him. When I have watched the very many BLs in years (and in weeks past, hat-tip to "Live In Love") past, in which a female character is so desperate to hold onto or gain the interest of the main male characters, it makes me wonder if folks see value in themselves outside of whom they may end up with in their romantic relationships. Why demean yourself in such a way?

Phleng has spent years in some sort of "punishment" for walking out of Wan's life. Wan's folks made it clear that she wasn't wanted, especially when the money they expected he to have from her parents deaths didn't come to pass. She had to get out, and let Wan have a future, in which she had no say in. When she found out that Wan had been lying to her about her actual achievements, that was heartbreaking for her. Phleng has wanted the best for Wan. So, in her mind, at that time, she wasn't the best person for Wan (and that wasn't just about her untold/unrequited romantic feelings for her).

It's going to take time for Phleng to not feel some sort of guilt regarding her pushing Wan to be with Ek, her abandonment of Wan, her sudden return into Wan's life, and now her being found out as the "other woman".
