get in loser, we’re going suffering

It's so revolting when certain stories actively build up romantic connections between a main female lead and a morally grey/villainous character, going as far as including a few soulmate elements into the dynamic (meant to burn together two that are one like calls to like you were meant to be my balance yadda yadda), only to turn on everyone who was invested in the pairing and be like "wow you shipped that? You really thought this evil guy was some romantic hero? Lol you're dumb silly. He is bad and abusive and you are bad and prone to enter abusive relationships if you liked him." Like... you were the one who built a narrative of two souls fated to be part of one another so you don't get to be upset when your audience takes your word for it.
