Only half of the was great, the other half... Holy fuck. WHO THOUGHT THAT THAT WAS AN ACTUAL GOOD IDEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So starting with the great part: the main couple.

A really cute best friends to lovers story... With them pretending to be gay to attract a girl one of them likes (coz yup, that makes sense) and eventually just falling for each other with drama sprinkled in.

I liked both of them. They were good friends who became a really cute supportive couple. There were a couple of bumps on the road but they made it.
Also if someone where to ever randomly LICK my lips, regardless of gender, I'd understably freak tf out coz like wtf..why... WHY!?!?

The fact that they always defended one another, physically or otherwise, was nice. They were a well balanced couple very funny, loving, sexy, cringe and overall entertaining. I loved them.

Half of this series was good because those two characters were really good too.

Which is why I don't understand wtf happened with the 2nd couple.
WHO thought that pairing step siblings with a BIG AGE GAP was A good idea?!?!
And fxck NO, making the younger sibling the aggressor does NOT make it better.

What do you mean by aggressor, you may ask?
Wasn't it just a cute(creepy) forbidden crush? Maybe, idk. I got distracted by him stalking his older brother & breaking into his HOUSE to watch him SLEEP so I didn't notice. That raised so many red flags for me AND THEN...

He SA'd his older brother after getting him drunk.

It gets worse.
How could it, you ask?

HE FILMED THE WHOLE THING...

And it still gets worse.
How? You whisper

their mom knew...

BUT WAIT, it gets worse.
how? you are now scared to ask.

HE SHOWED THE SA TAPE TO THEIR FATHER.

Then the series has the AUDACITY to try and carry on as if that relationship was in anyway cute and that it was somehow necessary because others the older sibling wouldn't have come out(btw he was also outed via SA tape??) & dated his younger step-sibling.
What The Actual Fxck.

Didn't know SA was anyway to start anything especially a relationship that isn't with jail but the parents in that show were hunky dory about it. Nevermind that he was disgusted with himself and traumatised over it, oh no, ✨its True Psychopathic Love✨?

What also sucks is that the older sibling was a really great & kind character that I genuinely wanted to have a happy ending. I was rooting for him to not end up with his criminal of a creepy younger step-sibling.

This series could've been overall good but the addition of the disgusting excuse of a 2nd couple makes it that I can never actually recommend it to anyone.

In conclusion: Half was great but I kinda would've preferred that it never existed than have that other half still exist.
