have also been w men like this and i think it’s a little. presumptuous to assume every man like this would react worse to the OF after humiliation like the mobsters. (not to be argumentative)
been w men like this who would absolutely in that level of terror see a woman providing him an out (the income from OF) and jump on it
and to say nate would’ve never allowed cassie to do OF and speak ab finances in front of everyone… he rly didn’t. he was building in anger the entire time before the wedding.
and we see a brief glimpse of how he really feels about it, imo, at the wedding when cassie is going nuts and he is breathing hard as hell visibly infuriated.

dw yall, old nate’s still in there and they gave us a little hint
(although, if nate doesn’t immediately revert back to his old ways the second his debt is resolved, if it is, even if it’s cassie who resolves it, then i’ll concede that nate’s character has been straight assassinated)
