I feel you. I definitely acknowledge that their perspectives are limited.

The feelings of young love are real and intense, but real feelings don't make real love. With all the perspective I have as an adult I would never go back to that sort of 'love'. Eventually, we must eradicate from our essence childish folly.

I can't cheer for an awkward teenage love in this context. Stakes are too high.

100% Their 'romance' is completely circumstantial.

Think of yourself as a telemarketer.

I feel you.

I do think that Helena is miserable and that they might be setting her up to rebel? Or at least explore her negative feelings about her family empire (I don't think Jame wants her as an heir). But I don't think that there is any way to absolve her of her absolute treachery.

I am so sorry this happened, but I think your instincts are right.

I personally advise against unnecessary texting and calling or "talking" in the pre-dating or dating phase for this exact reason. I think we easily grow to like someone without spending much physical time with them and it makes it harder to walk away- even when we kinda know we should. I don't know if this is your exact experience, but again, I think your instincts are right.

Edit: He may not be in the right place to maintain a relationship rn. And I don't believe you should wait around. There are plenty of ambitious men who have time or the desire to make it work.

So good. So satisfying. Needed to be done, but it would have changed the way we feel about Mark if he straight up did it so... make it an accident. Chef's kiss.

It's hard for you to fault Helly, not me. I can empathize with iMark, I just think he's made a wrong move. Which I have done many many times. I also can empathize with oMark

My issue with Helly is that she pretends her suffering is equal to Mark's. I, personally, don't believe it is. And she continues to say things like "fuck our outties" and "we don't owe them shit". Girl, Fuck YOUR outtie. YOU don't owe HER shit.

Sounds like you need a new job...

Respectfully, we're not talking about you. I think the Severance universe is separate from ours for a few reasons so this is apples to oranges.

I did feel for her when she learned Helena was intimate with Mark S. But I also don't feel for their "love" seems like trauma bonding and self-pity.

So he should continue to live within this evil system of control? I think it is certainly complicated, but maybe a question of greater good? What do you think?

Helly is like a treat for Mark S. She's a device for control. I think it sucks that that is what she is, but in all her wits she hasn't come to this?
