He can't talk about his feelings and is angry that the other guy doesn't understand how he feels

I don't know if I hate it or love it. The story is well written and the characters are realistic and multi-layered after all. But this was so frustrating to watch, like what kind of situationship is this?? For once, I don't understand, why didn't Segasaki just confess when he was making the proposal at the start. Wanting your crush to live at your house as your "slave" is weird, but it's much weirder to ask a friend you don't even know that well to do that. Also, Segasaki literally sleeps with his "slave" all the time, and him still acting like he's not in love with Yoh makes this situation even weirder. Also, I would really like to know how that even started. Did he just randomly come onto Yoh and Yoh accepted it as "part of their deal" or what the fuck happened? I honestly don't think they ever even talk about it. Yes, Yoh is dense but please please Segasaki can't you once tell him what you really feel and not try to show it indirectly.
And him stalking Yoh (after not allowing him to go to work?!?!?) and tying Yoh up out of jealousy is not cool. I mean Yoh liked being tied up, but it's still too much. His weird jealousy was also really annoying and that Yoh just accepted not being allowed to leave the house was frustrating. Their power-dynamic was honestly weird (Yoh is completely dependent on Segasaki) and that made Yoh not being able to speak his mind freely, not a good situation to start a relationsship.
Segasaki also said other really possessive problematic stuff, but I think he didn't mean it seriously? At least I hope so...

And the worst part of all of this is, that till the end they never had a real talk about their feelings (only "I like you" in the last episode) or about their relationship (they kinda confessed to each other, but it didn't change anything?? they didn't even seem to be happy after hearing it lol??). It feels like almost nothing happened in 8 episodes. And if Segasaki already knew that Yoh likes him, why would he not confess to Yoh in the beginning??? He already knows that he won't be rejected? Whyyyy???? And why would he treat Yoh so coldly in the beginning, only talking to him about what he wants to eat and when he will be at work and when not. At this point Yoh was literally just a maid and that's it. Obviously Yoh wouldn't think that Segasaki likes him when being treated so coldly??

And till the end I'm still not sure who Segasaki is. Is he really just cold (like he was on the "date" with Yoh) or is he actually a nice guy like he was to Yoh in university? I understand Yoh completely, but Segasaki? I still don't understand why he does things the way he does it.

This was one of the most frustrating BL's I ever watched, but I couldn't stop watching it. I actually don't mind the miscommunication-trope (if it ended after the 3th episode I would have loved this series), but here it was dragged on to long. For example in My beautiful man, Hira is even denser than Yoh, but that's why Kiyoi works hard to communicate with him better. But here? Their communication only got slightly better, but it's still a mess. Segasaki is frustrated that Yoh doesn't want to consider his feelings, but Segasaki was acting so confusedly, and also it is not Yoh's job to figure out Segasaki's true feelings. Just say it yourself you coward and don't blame Yoh. Have you even considered Yoh's feelings? How confused HE feels because of your actions???

I'm sure some of you will eat this up, but this is not my type of "kink", I'm not the biggest fan of characters like Segasaki. I mean I love me a tsundere, and I love a cold-on-the-outside character, but here? Here there was something missing to make me actually like Segasaki. Maybe it's because till the end he doesn't lay of his cold "mask" or his jealousy.
