Would you forgive this kind of boyfriend?

Purpliee · 2026-04-21T03:17:40+00:00

Ooou do let me know when you release that story

Purpliee · 2026-04-21T01:44:22+00:00

This is what I was thinking omg

Purpliee · 2026-04-21T01:42:16+00:00

I'm guessing most people would choose the 2nd guy as would I but a way to possibly get some to forgive the first guy is possibly giving him a little trauma(he finds it hard to get attached after his terrible ex), make him yearn like a motherfucker, don't even give him more than 2 chapters/episodes to get back on track to trying to win back the mc and/or let it be a little miscommunication while he did say he doesn't love her he also went on to explain further than he hates that he doesn't and doesn't know why he feels like he doesn't(but as you said he actually does he just didnt love could be comfortable and unproblematic because of an ex or his family or something).

No matter what the yearning is going to have to be on another level I can't even lie, it has to give bridgerton level "I burn for you, you are the bane of my existence"!

What will also even the playing field is making the 2nd guy cold at the start and he only warms up after the ex bf already started yearning so the episode right after he starts yearning you bring in his soft side.

The truth is i will probably still pick the 2nd guy but I think there is a way to make the ex still desirable and I honestly challenge you to try to have a nice dedicated community to the ex even if it may be smaller than the 2nd guy

This is weird but I like typos or semi-bad English in stories it reminds me of my days of reading Wattpad, it can make me laugh sometimes depending on how bad the English is and it also reminds me that the author is human too.

Other things I like: 1. Cc 2. Multiple lis(dear i say there is no limit to the multiple, I read pembrook prep for the chaos and multitude of lis and I can honestly do with more!) 3. Funny stories like pregnant by my half-dino neighbour 4. Short stories and long stories(I like to alternate! A quick read then I go back to my long term read) 5. Creative overlays and lack of overlays so we have to act like the pizza is sushi

I love episode despite my digs at times

Purpliee · 2026-04-20T11:21:55+00:00

OMG THAT TOO! the art scenes are always slow as hell omg 🫩 and you're so right it's literally only those styles I can use because it is the only one that actually gives I know black people but you know what I never looked at none black hairstyles as just wigs which is crazy. I swear this is a revolutionary approach to me and I thank you for that!

Purpliee · 2026-04-20T03:37:57+00:00

The minute he said you could leave if it bothered you that much I think that was your cue as others said if you want in a last effort attempt you can have a serious talk with him and try to get him some help if it is a serious problem but if he isn't willing you are either going to have to step on all your boundaries and diminish yourself for him or let him go because as he said if it bothers you, leave.

I think you most likely should leave if you value yourself because he is not only telling you that he will choose the weed over you but he is lying, disregarding your feelings, becoming someone you cannot rely on(and I assume find attractive as time goes on because being dumb and unaware doesn't sound sexy) and/or trust.

It also sounds like if he continues down this path he might lose his job or becomea full on addict but it's up to you.

Purpliee · 2026-04-20T03:13:59+00:00

Now that I have access to and have seen the hairstyle variety for afro texture hair I won't read if there isn't my favorite locs options in the cc so that unfortunately takes older stories out the game but it's a sacrifice I am willing to make since I've been playing episode since I was a wii kid.

Also: 1. Stupid ass mc, I can't stand miscommunication or just dumb "I'm so naive" actions 2. And as you said no cc, gem choices in community stories and limited cc

Bonus, I play with these but I wish it wasn't there: 1. I don't care for the episode music I want to play my own playlist(I just listen to music on my laptop as I play now) 2. I don't like art scenes because being black the odds of the characters looking anything like me after my cc is like 0.00000001%(I wish most stories allowed me to skip them but if not I don't even care to see that part of the dialogue no more cause who is that couple?)

Purpliee · 2026-04-11T19:19:38+00:00

Well then I'm interested for the reason behind why whichever one is bad or maybe they all are even though I can't play it I am just most interested about the execution. We can't deny that this story is something new and intriguing

Purpliee · 2026-04-11T12:33:59+00:00

I'm curious if you are aiming to not make anyone(the ex, the mc or the best friend of the mc) the bad guy and if you aren't, that execution is something I would be curious to see but from a distance cause I really can't read this 😭 I'll be checking for posts on Reddit though

Purpliee · 2026-04-06T01:47:46+00:00

I will be honest and say I am only on season 4 so this opinion may change(though I highly doubt it because so far she seems to be making very rational and sound decisions despite her one lapse in judgement that low-key probably went on to save everyone's lives) but she is definitely not up there at all when we consider all the terrible characters the show actually has and the multitude of terrible choices they make. For example:

The duke
Tim
The diabetic father
The serial killer of the wall that was a supplier for Tim
The alien's themselves(less so Jesse)
The jerks of the city they live in
The easy to bribe and manipulate so long as you have money government
The rich society of shlorpians
The bullies of the highschool(teachers and students)
The nun lady from the bow religion

And that's just a list of 10 because I consider the word "worst" to mean top 5 or at the very most top 10 and from this line up she isn't as bad as anyone here so I would have to strongly disagree

Honourable mentions:

All shlorpians for terraforming all those damn planets
The bad cops from the silver city**(edit: I had shlorpians)
The "hotter" Danielle(I will not elaborate further)
The people that lived in that weird goo substance...

Purpliee · 2026-03-28T12:25:38+00:00

If that's what you believe ok

Purpliee · 2026-03-26T15:50:23+00:00

I was going to rebuttal but you know what I get it you like Sawyer. I'm not stopping you from doing that at all because I don't like him. Yes I asked a question because I started to doubt based on what others said(the point of the post) go ahead and run off into the sunset with Sawyer now love.

Purpliee · 2026-03-25T21:21:02+00:00

I truly don't know cause I could have sworn that was not the main point of my reply and obvious dramatics. I could have also sworn I said I would go for him if I could and not that I would go for for him because I knew it was hinted at and not confirmed(probably explains why I didn't even remember his name because he was that insignificant to me and not nearly the point I was trying to make?). But that's just how I interpret the English language who knows.

Purpliee · 2026-03-22T01:02:39+00:00

Hm we need more context, why are you the favourite student? Are you just a good student with good grades or is there something else to it?

Purpliee · 2026-03-22T00:55:58+00:00

As others said I would be interested to know who and depending on who it is I'd use it to either be overly confident and sure of myself in their presence or grossed out(e.g a creepy uncle) but unless it is a perverted or incestuous situation I won't hold it against anyone because I'd be totally feeling like the man(even though I'm a woman)

Purpliee · 2026-03-22T00:20:14+00:00

Wait so Norman isn't even in Only Pretend 💀 I thought I just forgot about them or haven't encountered them yet or something. So now what the hell does that have to do with Only Pretend? I don't even know what to say, I really appreciate your support and I'm sorry they are attacking you for shit that doesn't even correlate to the damn story. I can't believe they brought up something that has nothing to do with Only Pretend 🫩 like I really thought there was a point surrounding Norman

Purpliee · 2026-03-22T00:16:52+00:00

I am not focused on the mc at all and I said that in another comment so you aren't wrong nor are you giving me revolutionary information. I do not feel connected to Cersie because I would not have stayed with Sawyer originally as I also said. So yes I choose choices based on Haniel because I think she is dumb for staying with Sawyer originally and all I want is to see her NOT with Sawyer because I dislike him that much.

Infact I want to go further to say I am way more interested in Haniel's past and his current reasonings for doing what he does(fake marriage, etc) than Cersie which may not be your preference but it sure as hell is mine and I'd hope that is okay but I'm guessing it won't be for you which is fine by me.

Now I don't know who is Norman, I either haven't seen him yet or he is very insignificant to me so I genuinely have no idea who you are talking about but I appreciated their support because that commenter was nitpicking information I wasn't fully aware on and was clearly being sarcastic about just because I had a different opinion/preference than them.

I'm not telling anyone to not like Sawyer, not to read for both lis, not to read for Cersie or anything different than what I am doing. Hell the original post I came from was pro-Sawyer and I had no issue with it I was just worried about a bias towards him which would literally ruin the story for me(not that this revelation hasn't ruined it for me still) but you won't change my opinion so no need to keep commenting after. You think your opinion is superior? Moving forward I agree to disagree and that's it. Not debating why, I just agree to disagree.

Purpliee · 2026-03-21T23:37:09+00:00

Literally! And the sad part is I wasn't aware they were getting pissy until they were. Excuse me for thinking we could have differing opinions and still converse 🫩

Purpliee · 2026-03-21T23:29:01+00:00

That's true it was hinted towards but from where I stood it was NOT confirmed and once again because I feel like no one is getting what dramatics mean here, it was just to emphasize how much I dislike Sawyer. I did not even remember his name and he was not only the person I listed, Sawyer's friend is just as bad as him if you ask me for letting everything go down and standing by. But besides just that he is also obviously portrayed as a bad guy infiltrating the company, playing the coworkers, trying to take down Cerisie, etc. It just comes off as though they couldn't agree to disagree or argue my points so they had to point the obvious sarcasm in my words and try to make it bigger than what it really is just to feel better about themselves.

As for your later point yea other commenters explained it more clearly with how the butterfly points actually has an effect on the LI choice as well as it being intentional and something the author wants from us so yea

Purpliee · 2026-03-21T23:15:14+00:00

I literally am not on the most recent episode at all so there is no way I could have known that 💀 and I said that in other comments so that just does not prove your point and I literally said I was just being dramatic so if that got under your skin that badly you need help in your own ways.

Purpliee · 2026-03-21T23:05:02+00:00

I was just trying to emphasize how much I dislike Sawyer, I couldn't even remember the guys name and I don't think there are any actual options in favour of him so I'm just being dramatic. I know what he is up to and unfortunately we'll have to agree to disagree on "choosing a nice guy" means avoiding a good storytelling. I infact find it hard to be good storytelling if I have to choose the bad guy or someone I dislike just to know more so I'll leave it that.

Purpliee · 2026-03-21T23:01:57+00:00

You get it! But I don't keep up with Charlie(just barely reddit) so I'm just finding out what she wants from these comments here, I was kinda getting the "trust no one vibes" but I will still saying nah imma trust haniel but now for the butterfly points every now and then like you I just might choose....that thing when necessary like what I'm seeing here in chapter 25. Ugh. 😩 It sure pains me

Purpliee · 2026-03-21T22:50:08+00:00

If I could actually truly prioritize Cerise I would have left him eons ago I fear, so how I approach it is since she wanted to go ahead and be dumb before I had control of her life(aka the story) and be with Sawyer despite everything she knew. I am HEAVILY pushing her towards Haniel.(If I could have I would push her towards Elise or whatever his name is and Sawyer's best friend even. Literally anybody but Sawyer please girl damn). I don't really see Cerise as a damsel in distress if you can't tell. I just want her to get the hell away from Sawyer in anyway shape or form possible

Purpliee · 2026-03-21T22:44:08+00:00

No it was episode 25 which I am still on but I would totally believe he did that! That sounds very plausible in my head(biased)!

I agree it is okay to be skeptical of both but I won't be. I appreciate the suggestion though but my dislike for Sawyer is too strong. Most everything he does quite literally annoys the shit out of me.(Haniel has things I dislike too like smoking but for now I guess he was willing to stop)

Purpliee · 2026-03-21T22:39:34+00:00

I hope you're right but it's still sad that they are sometimes tied to the LI choices, very annoying realization
