A welcomed story about how sexual incompatability is a valid reason for not continuing a relationship, and how other people struggled to view a relationship when physical intimacy isn't in the picture. Featuring a main aroace man and a allosexual woman.
I liked it. i think it did what it set out to do. I like reading queerplatonic stories, and how many different ways people can love each other and form relationships - even when love alone isn't enough to make it last in the end beyond platonic. We really need more stories where love takes different shapes and breaks off for totally valid reasons that society don't want to normalize!!
Notes:
* They kiss once (aroace character clearly pushing down their discomfort, and it breaks them up )
mini-summary of plot: A short manga about a sex-repulsed asexual man who gets in a relationship with a allosexual woman that loves him enough to pursue a relationship with him on his conditions. Other people question how it is a relationship when they don't "do anything." Ultimately, they come to the conclusion that they are not sexually compatible (valid) and break up.
