Chapter Seventeen
Xu Weiwei frowned and said, "It is indeed easy to break up. Many people who lack confidence in their relationship will take the initiative to break up, even if they still love each other."
I don't agree with the statement that leaving is due to a lack of love. Many people believe that love can conquer all, but in reality, that's often not the case; regret is the norm.
I used to think that no matter how much I loved someone, we would never break up. But after a day, two days, three days apart, I gradually got used to the separation and not having you around.
People are really easy to replace. Just like when ten thousand people stand together, they will be overwhelmed. No matter how tall, handsome, or beautiful they are, it doesn't matter. They all look the same and there is no difference.
When I've been shipping couples for a long time, I sometimes feel a bit disoriented. It's like true love is sometimes an illusion. For example, in a male-male couple, both the top and the bottom are incredibly handsome.
At first, I only liked the top guy, who was young, good-looking, and strong. Later, he was a member of a boy band, so I thought about pairing him up with the best-looking guy in the group, which was like pairing people up.
Often, they both sell and dismantle items, selling them heavily and dismantling them very obviously. When I was collecting them, I selectively looked at the items I bought and ignored the ones I dismantled.
For a while, they were really into the bromance, to the point where they had to do it on camera. I really thought they were going to make it official. But when I checked the timeline, I realized that at that time, the top had a non-celebrity girlfriend and the bottom had a girlfriend in the entertainment industry.
They were in talks for both of them, and then they used a big sales event to divert attention. Actually, they weren't a boy band at all; they were all heterosexual. They all broke up later.
I really don't understand how their girlfriends can tolerate their boyfriends engaging in homoerotic behavior with other men. Their actions are far too intimate; they do almost everything couples would do, and even more.
What's the point of their relationships then? There's nothing special about them. Or are the men just heartless and cold-blooded, betraying their fans' sincerity and deceiving both solo fans and CP (couple) fans?
There's another couple I shipped where the seme (top) had a lot of girlfriends, and each time they would shift the topic and focus by flirting with the uke (bottom) in a BL (Boys' Love) way. Among those girlfriends were some very young, some very old, some ugly, and some beautiful.
The younger ones were ten years younger than him, and the older ones were fifteen years older. He had talked to his agent, female assistant, and even the recipient. I can only say he went too far.
The submissive was also very generous. Knowing that the dominant had already talked to him, she was still willing to engage in bromance with him to divert attention. Every time they stayed at the same hotel, her girlfriend was actually sitting on the bed waiting for her in the room she had booked.
When they went on a trip together, his girlfriend shared a room with the top guy, while the bottom guy stayed alone. The bottom guy covered for him many times and was very loyal.
Furthermore, the dominant partner uses matching profile pictures, wears matching rings and bracelets, all as a cover for engaging in bromance with the submissive partner. The dominant partner also invites their girlfriend to their concerts, and the girlfriend subtly shows affection for them.
The guy who's always on the offensive feels guilty and goes on a crazy promotional spree whenever he's with his girlfriend. He doesn't do anything else at other times and gives his fans the silent treatment because his girlfriend gets jealous and doesn't want him to be too nice to them.
I couldn't understand why the other party was willing to make such a sacrifice. Later I found out that he was really injured, but he had hidden his wounds very well.
I saw that he later got together with someone I thought was terrible, but this terrible person was very good to him most of the time, but there were still many bad times.
All I can say is that the guy who was attacking was a jerk. Maybe he's gotten used to this kind of mixed emotional pattern. I feel sorry for him and think he deserves someone better.
He may need to be loved all the time, but it's clear that he gets hurt sometimes, though someone he doesn't love can't really hurt him.
Unlike the top, the man he once truly loved could genuinely hurt him. Later, I felt that neither of them deserved sympathy. In any case, the bottom insisted on covering for the top, deceiving the top's solo fans and their CP fans.
As a fan of their pairing, I think their relationship is fake. One of them has countless girlfriends and is completely heterosexual, but he pretends to be gay. I really hate this kind of person.
I may not have been particularly invested in them, so I can move on quickly. But I've seen some girls who started following them in middle school, only to find out in college that they were fake, and they find it hard to accept that fact.
I think boy bands selling bromance is really harmful to themselves and others. The main thing is that they were really in love, but one of them was too fickle and abandoned the other.
Finally, after I stopped following them, I found out that the other person had found a girlfriend who was very beautiful, a rich second-generation, and treated him very well.
I only found out that they had a relationship, but it only trapped their CP fans. Later, they both had girlfriends, went from idols to actors, openly announced their relationship, and finally got married and had children.
The only thing I don't understand is why the bottom was so loyal in the first place? Didn't they love each other for a while? How could he be willing to take responsibility after knowing that the top was so fickle and loved to play around? Did he love her too much or not?
I think if someone truly loves another, they might not be able to be so magnanimous and would only want to destroy the other person. Or perhaps men simply value self-interest more than so-called love.
Continuing to exploit the BL (Boys' Love) genre maximizes their own profits, while the dominant partner is merely a tool to be used. I've shipped too many gay couples, and every single one of them has left me disappointed.
The same applies to lesbian couples; they're even more disgusting and fraudulent than gay couples. You know what? I once knew a lesbian couple where the dominant (T) was incredibly good to the dominant (P). When the dominant got sick, her family refused to pay for her treatment, but the dominant (T) provided both financial and physical support.
T worked hard to earn money, and whenever she had free time, she would go to the hospital to take care of P. She also hired a caregiver for P. It was almost entirely T's time, effort, money, and care that cured P.
But the final result disappointed me greatly, you know? P married a man and had two children, a boy and a girl, so T had to go abroad alone to heal her wounds.
There is also a lesbian couple, a PP relationship. They both have long hair. The older PP is five years older than the younger PP. She is very beautiful, very capable, and owns her own company, making a little money.
Little P is a female college student, and Big P treats her very well. He does almost everything you could imagine about a beautiful life for her.
In the end, Little P chose to marry a man. Little P told Big P that she was not a lesbian or bisexual, but a heterosexual.
She lacked maternal love from a young age, and being loved by Da P made her experience maternal love, which she couldn't bear to leave. But now, she wants children more, which means that she has never loved and only coveted the kindness others showed her.
Look, this is the kind of lesbian I ship. There are so many heterosexual women who pretend to be lesbians, just hoping that others will provide them with emotional value and money. If it's a man, forget about emotional value; he won't really empathize with you at all.
I might be a woman, although I'm heterosexual, but I can easily identify with lesbians. I think I'm that T who met a P I truly loved and treated her very well, but in the end, what she gave me in return was to marry a man and have children.
I'd definitely have a heart attack. I'd feel like I loved the wrong person, and I'd regret this relationship. I can't accept that my partner only used me and didn't love me.
The gay community is so chaotic, so shipping heterosexuals must be okay? That's not true. Heterosexual relationships are just as bad. The heterosexual couple I shipped dated for ten years and then broke up.
Another couple got married, the woman gave birth, and the man cheated on her during her pregnancy. The woman was in a postpartum care center upstairs, while the man was ordering takeout downstairs. In the end, they broke up.
There was another couple where the man flirted with another woman in front of the woman. The woman loved him too much and refused to let go, so the man hooked up with a rich girl and decisively dumped the woman.
So, if it's always the man who's at fault, does that mean the woman is always perfect? No. I once shipped a couple who were childhood sweethearts, inseparable since they were young, and the man treated the woman incredibly well; they dated for eighteen years.
As a result, the woman was photographed by the media marrying a strange man in a bar. The man chose to forgive her because he loved her too much. He thought she would change, but he didn't know that there is only zero times or countless times when it comes to cheating.
Later, the woman cheated on him again and again, completely disregarding him and only seeking thrills. The man eventually gave up and later married another woman and had children with her.
When the woman learned of the man's engagement, she went completely mad and started an affair with a female singer at a bar. She then announced to the media that she was actually a lesbian and that she had never truly accepted herself before, but now she did.
Later, she dated countless girlfriends, and each relationship was always a grand affair, a major news event, with her even paying people to film it.
I really don't understand her. If she truly loved him, why did she cheat on him in the first place? If she didn't love him, why did she suddenly go crazy later?
Yes, anyone with eyes can see that she staged such a big farce just to show the man that their relationship was a mistake, that she wasn't heterosexual, and that his leaving was actually for her own good. She wouldn't regret it; she was overjoyed.
I don't really know if the man ever truly let go. He gave his all but received no response, only countless setbacks. I think he probably became so numb that he could no longer love.
You might not be used to it at first, but after countless little moments of happiness and the arrival of children who are related to you by blood, the love you had when you were young becomes insignificant.
There's another couple, both singers. They started out unknown, with the woman writing songs for the man and the man writing songs for the woman. When they weren't famous, they busked on the streets and openly sang duets together.
Later, someone filmed a video of them and posted it online, which went viral. With the increased traffic, people approached them wanting to sign them. The woman didn't want to sign, feeling that the terms and conditions were too troublesome and that there were too many rules to follow, making her feel restricted.
She feels that her life is very good now. She is doing a job she likes and is with the person she loves. She has no requirements for food or housing. As long as there is food to eat, she is fine and will not starve to death.
She just needed a place to sleep, as long as she wouldn't get wet in the rain. She didn't need much money. She busked on the streets, earning money through her singing ability; it was very good, and she loved it.
The man thought they should sign a contract. With the help of a management company, they might be able to enter the entertainment industry, become stars, gain fans, and become very popular and make a lot of money.
Ultimately, out of love, the woman agreed to the man's suggestion and they signed the contract together. The money would be split 30/70, with the management company taking 70% and them taking 30%.
The management company did indeed manage them well, gradually turning them into a popular singer group. They appeared on many variety shows and galas, and were loved by many people.
Their concerts can hold 30,000 people in a city and run for four consecutive days. Many passersby like to join in the fun and buy tickets to see their concerts.
The man felt right at home and very comfortable, while the woman felt very uncomfortable. She felt she had to attend various social events every time, and the people she met were all different kinds, which was very chaotic and she disliked it.
As the man became richer, he turned bad and started flirting with younger girls. When the woman found out, she immediately demanded to terminate the contract. She was strong-willed and couldn't accept her boyfriend's betrayal, so her first reaction was to leave.
Later, she lost almost all her money before successfully terminating her contract with the company. She continued to busk on the street, and many passersby recognized her and gave her more money than when she was unknown.
In addition, she also releases songs. After experiencing a deeply painful and failed relationship, she had many insights, which she poured into her songs.
These songs resonated with many listeners, who felt she sang them exceptionally well, that the songs belonged to her, and that she could collect royalties from them.
She became a wealthy person, but she still missed the days when she was poor and the days when she sang on the streets with him before he turned bad.
She knew perfectly well that the man from back then simply didn't have the opportunity to cheat on her; it didn't mean he loved her that much at the time. She was just a backup option. If he had truly loved her, he wouldn't have cheated on her later.
Anyway, most couples are like this; they'll always have a bad ending. Even if there were some wonderful moments in the process, so what? There are basically no couples that can stay truly good forever.
If you ask whether it's true or false, you can only say that the love at the beginning was real, and the lack of love later on was also real. Choosing to ship a couple inevitably involves getting hurt, but the process of shipping makes you feel that love is wonderful.
