this is probably an unpopular opinion but i see the FL more as a flawed character with certain unhealthy behaviors. but i can understand why she may be seen as toxic. As for the 2FL, i agree she is a bit overbearing, she is too hot-headed.

I feel for SQ. She has always struggled with low self-esteem, making it hard for her to believe that HSY could genuinely like her. So when something happens that seems to confirm her fears or insecurities, like their recent misunderstanding, she doesn’t question it—she automatically accepts it as "proof" of her worst fears. Her ex-husband repeatedly made her feel worthless, abusing her both physically and emotionally. That trauma likely affects how she handles conflict and emotional situations now. Her instinct to avoid confrontation or assume the worst is probably a defense mechanism she developed to protect herself. In her mind, it might feel safer to leave than risk getting hurt again, even if it means sabotaging her own happiness. I really hope she can heal from her past and eventually find the confidence she deserves.
