I don't give two shits about SandRay after this episode even trough they were my faves before
Lol Top cheated on Mew just because of an old kiss 2 years ago and then had the audacity to show jealousy towards Ray and Mew. How can you defend that? Cheating isn't nothing, it's the worst betrayal someone can do, it's the most toxic of all. And yes, Top cheated Mew when he was pretending to be after him. That was the whole point of episode 6, did you watch it?
And Boston manipulates Nick as well as he manipulates everyone else. He may have made it clear at the beginning, but he continues to play the lover with Nick every episode. I didn't see his affair with Top as cheating because at that stage they were just FWB, but now? There's nothing clear about his attitude towards Nick and Boston is completly playing Nick.
Why am I not defending Top? Because his mother didn't kill herself because he was born. Because he always gets the love and attention he demands. He's clearly not as depressed as Ray and he's lucky enough to have someone loving and real, and yet he cheated on that person. So yeah sorry but I'm not going to defend someone like Top who is nothing but a spoiled arsehole.
I'm not defending SandRay because I like the idea of their relationship but because it is the least toxic of the 3. Everything that has happened between Sand and Ray during this episode is the result of a lack of communication between them, not one wanting to play with the other or one seeing the other as a ridiculous trophet.
this isn’t supposed to be like the stereotypical bl. the characters are very realistic and even relatable..…
Yes, it's true. There's a character I can totally relate to, and... it hurts so much because I feel like I'm seeing my own life in his. This drama is really brilliant...

You're exaggerating and it's only episode 6, only halfway through the drama. A lot can and will happen. Especially since many of the tender scenes between Sand and Ray from the trailer haven't happened yet.
First of all, they're not the most toxic couple. Not compared to Top who cheated on Mew and lied to him just to get his virginity, or Boston who uses Nick like a toy and tortures him mentally and psychologically.
As for Ray's attitude, let's not forget that he was drunk and on substances. That's not to excuse him, but anyone who's ever been drunk knows that you can't control what you say or do, especially when you're at your wit's end. Which was his case. I think Sand is aware of this and not only feels guilty, but understands that Ray is not in control of his emotions (hence the fact that he tried to restrain him and then left after him).
Ray has self-destructive and suicidal tendencies. Attacking the person who has so far looked after him and done him good is a way of hurting himself. By hurting Sand, Ray was above all trying to hurt himself by rejecting the little love he could get. I don't think Ray is a heartless person who just uses Sand as a placeholder when he's bored. Just look at his attitude whenever he was with Sand. He was genuinely happy. Just as Sand pretended not to want someone like Ray but fell in love with him anyway, I think Ray denies his feelings for Sand (out of loyalty to Mew and fear of happiness too). They're just two idiots who lie to themselves and I think that after a lot of arguing things will eventually come out between them.
Then, if Ray is in this state, Sand is the direct cause. I'm sure that Sand would never have used Ray to get back at Top if he hadn't realised the day before that he wasn't as special as he'd hoped in Ray's eyes, because of Boston. In other words, Sand made the choice to use Ray's feelings for Mew, as well as his emotional instability and addictions to achieve his goal of causing Top harm, simply because he thought he had no chance of winning Ray's heart over Mew anyway. Which is petty. Clearly, it's better that Mew knows the truth and I imagine it's Sand's well-deserved revenge on Top. But he didn't mind destroying Ray in the process. So for Ray to get so angry with him, I'm not saying Sand deserved it, but it was largely to be expected and it's the consequence of his actions and choices.
Hence his guilt, and the fact that in the next episode Sand saves Ray's life (again) and they spend time together. So they're going to forgive each other. And then they'll fight each other again and then I think and hope, forgive each other again.
