So to all my people who've read a lot of Fake Dating/Friends With Benefits tropes, you know how the love interests who are usually the friends come asking the MCs for help with their breakups. These breakups are usually before their established ex says that "they want space/time away from the relationship", when 10/10 that's not the actual reason why they broke up (I'll talk more about this in a separate post coz I have thoughts). But instead of asking to help them move on, these mfers ask the MC to either be their fake partner in exchange for some sex favours, or they want to know if they're really bad at sex so they can win back their exes.
Welcome back to the messy and drama bitches. If you haven’t read the first part where I ranted about ML’s doing anying BUT moving on from their ex who dumps them because “they want space” and asks their Y/N’s to be their fake girlfriends to win back said ex, I encourage you to read it.
In this post we’re talking about the exs who say “they want space” when really it’s not about “wanting space.”
So grab a snack, tea, cool beverage, a blanket and enjoy me crashing out at the sheer audacity these bitches put me through for chapters on end.
From my reading experience, normally when a girl or anyone in general says "I want time away from the relationship to find myself and have space", that usually translates to either:
I cheated on you.
There's something bothering me about you and this relationship but I don't want to bring it up or communicate with you like a human.
Just an excuse for us to break up.
I did something I wasn't supposed to do or something so fucked up that could make you hate me. So I'm breaking up with you to avoid accountability.
I did it to protect you and not be a burden. So I'm intentionally hurting you to make you hate me.
I have a secret that I want to take to the grave.
Normally the translations are usually, 1, 4, 5, and 6.
Now let’s get into our offenders.
⚠️SPOILERS AHEAD⚠️
Nari from His Tutor Girl by ravsisrekt
Oh, you thought Jimin was the problem in His Tutor? Nari was the BLUEPRINT.
BUCKLE UP BITCHES. Because Nari was out here wearing a halo while causing 90% of this mess, and it confused me how the majority of the readers really thought Nari this innocent angel.
Was she outright a moustache curling villain? No, she was actually pretty chill and nice. But she was a well meaning person WHO MADE THE MOST STUPIDEST DECISION ALL BECAUSE SHE COULD NOT COMMUNICATE WITH HER MAN.
So as y’all know, Nari broke up with Jimin because he was “bad in bed” and couldn’t satisfy her (BITCH YOU THINK THOSE HIPS THRUSTS DURING THE BAEPSAE LIVE PERFORMANCE WERE A JOKE?! THOSE HIPS ARE ENOUGH TO GIVE YOU INFINITE ORGASMS SO HARD YOU’LL BE SQUIRT A WHOLE FOUNTAIN).
I immediately knew she was was bullshitting and suspected that she’s hiding something, she cheated or did something she was supposed to do and was just looking for excuses to break up with him.
She spends months without talking to him, watches him struggle from afar, up until the chapter she showed up at the dorm, like nothing happened and somehow Jimin forgot he has a bitch hiding under his bed with no panties on.
And the next time we see her, she in the back of the car getting her coochie at by this man, who somehow forgot that he made a promise to visit his situationship’s sick grandma at the hospital the moment she FINALLY admits that she lied about him being bad in bed (shocker).
And THEN we find out, through her conversation with Y/N that the REAL reason why she broke up with Jimin she was getting dragged and hate from the fans for dating and didn’t want to drag him with her. So instead of COMMUNICATING that with Jimin, she chose to LIE to make him HATE HER thinking that it was going to “protect him.”
Protect who, sweetie? Especially when you saw that this nigga still LOVED you and decided to slide back into his life.
Bitch you went all this trouble breaking up with him and lying about him his sex performance hoping that he'll hate you enough to move on because in your head that was somehow better than telling him that you couldn't bare people talking negatively about y'all and didn't want to be a burden. ONLY for you to worm your way back to him because you couldn’t stay away from him.
Like ma'am do you not see how inconsistent you're being? Which is it? Making him hate you or you taking him back. Pick a lane.
And WHY on Namjoon's titties and dimples are you talking to Y/n about why YOU broke up with him instead of the person YOU 🫵🏽 hurt. You didn't hurt Y/n, she's the innocent bystander caught in the mess YOU 🫵🏽 created because you didn't trust your man with the truth and honesty. You OWE Jimin the information you're sharing with Y/n. Not Y/n.
And when she was asked why didn’t tell Jimin all this, she said that Jimin was going to insist to stay and work things out if she told him.
Girl. Stand 👏🏽 on 👏🏽 business 👏🏽. Stand up. Stand your ground. You are allowed to put your foot down and be firm on your decision cos you had the grounds to leave him. It would suck but it's neither of y'alls fault.
Yn is better than me. I would have crashed the fuck out and read her to filth and it surprised why even a handful the readers were like: okay she's not a bad person.
No. No. I can understand why she did it coz dating an idol is not for the weak especially when the greater majority of the fandom is misogynistic and super parasocial.
But WHY do you need to hurt your partner and push them away to protect them or shield them from your problems. That to me just shows that you don't even trust your partner.
And she and Jimin ended up breaking up in the end so what was the point?
If traumatising the self insert who became the rebound disguised as a Sex Tutor and was dragged into this mess because you chose LIES over COMMUNICATION. The congrates. Here’s your medal.
Kiko from Mutual Help by personasintro
Whew besties, y’all need some hard liqour (and grape juice for the minors) for this coz Kiko in this other story was just…. wow.
So as you know, Kiko broke up with Jungkook because “she wanted space” (which was also bullshit.)
So Kiko and Jungkook finally had a conversation about why she broke up with him and Jungkook straight up asked: did you cheat on me.
She didn’t deny nor confirm. She just went with it. Saying that she didn’t want him to hate her. (This is important).
Jungkook asks if she cheated with Hoseok (since they’re close). She denies it and says that it was with someone else he didn’t know.
Obviously Jungkook takes her back despite her “admitting that she cheated on him.”
Fast forward, Jungkook walks in on a heated conversation between Hoseok and Kiko with Hoseok saying “If you won’t tell him, I will.”
And obviously, Jungkook’s sus radar starts tweaking and forces Kiko to spill the beans.
He asks again if she cheated on him with Hoseok and she denies it again until she caves and tells him the real reason why she broke up with him was because SHE WAS PREGNANT.
And she had an abortion after she dumped him. Hoseok was the first and only person she told about it and made him swear into secrecy. Mind you, Hobi and JK ARE FRIENDS.
Remember when I said Kiko didn’t deny or confirm that she cheated and just went with it?
This is why?
Meaning that she lied to Jungkook TWICE.
And obviously Jungkook was mad, blindsided and traumatised by this HUGE secret that she kept from him.
Now listen. I’m not mad at her for having the abortion. I understand why. It was a high risk pregnancy and she wasn’t ready to having a baby. Her body her choice.
What I don’t agree with is LYING to withold such information from your partner and making choices while keeping your partner in the dark.
Kiko should have told Jungkook that she was pregnant by him and that she was getting an abortion since it was a high risk pregnancy and she wasn't ready to be a parent instead of breaking up with him "to take time away from the relationship" then have the abortion AFTER they broke up and let this guy believe that she broke up with him because she cheated and felt guilty about it when he asked: did you cheat on me.
And for what? Because she didn't want him to hate her. What were you expecting? You wanted him to be fine and applaud you for lying and blindsiding him and keeping a secret THIS big and made a decision without talking to him?
Like yes he doesn't get to decide what she does with her body. But this is his child. He wasn't even a horrible partner to warrant keeping her pregnancy from him. He deserved to know the existence of the baby HE HELPED CONCEIVE WITH HER.
