Adults being a mess or a realistic portrait of humans and relationships

I totally recommend this drama for people on their 20s or 30s, why? because you might find it not just inspirational but also relatable.

This is a story about three friends in their 30s, portraying the difficulties and insecurities that women might have at that time specially being successful women in a realistic society. Let's be honest, society likes successful career women? Nah. They like women that are confident and sexual? Nah. Women that do not wanna marry? Nah. Divorcees? Nah. Single women? No :)

The female leads:
One of the friends is a gorgeous divorcee that doesn't believe in love and just sleeps around with younger men, I love her a lot. Also a super young mom.

Another is a married woman that apparently has the perfect relationship, nothing farther from the truth, to the point that her mental health was so damaged. I wanted to slap her most of the time but at the end she was amazing, the very end though.

And finally the FL, a lovely women with the perfect life, great job, nice relationship with her father, amazing boyfriend, beauty and successful, independent, peeeeerfect. However, ought to the fact that she is a workaholic she ended up failing at love, is not her fault tho!

The first women got cheated on, the second was submissive in an open relationship that ended up messing her mental health, and all of this why? because those men were awful and didn't like women with successful career or independent women, and society, specially families were putting a lot of preassure on them.

Now the male leads:

Some of them are just awful, you will hate them. Not gonna talk about it, too bad our society have these type of men.
But I adored the others, one of the female leads son, was lovely.

The ML was too lovely, this is weird in a drama, he was literally so sweet and gentle, a bit naive but not too much, understandable, respectful and caring. He was never pushy towards the FL and always helpful, supporting her.

The other ML was amazing, your typical Casanova but also wise and respectful, I adored him. He was always there for the ML, sincere and honest, giving advice and caring, maybe too honest for his own well being.

The main relationship was healthy, most of the relationships here were shitty, don't worry all characters develop nicely but the main one was amazing. They got time to get to know each other, they were caring and always trying to help the other, they were not selfish and had good communication, except for few moments but this is a drama so... you gotta have drama. However, everything is solved nicely.

The number of episodes were perfect, some dramas are too long that get draggy but here you will watch it nicely, not skipping parts, and at the end you will feel like: hell I can do that, I can be an Iron lady.

Lmao to my own joke, don't hate me.
