I've been thinking a lot about everything going on, and heres my thoughts: no matter who ki dates, its going to turn out bad. theres no "good ending" here. I think not even with the noble and caring ex bf. now, we know ki is very mentally ill and likes to be abused. in her mind, whats the ideal bf? a sadist. someone who will treat her like utter shit and cause her pain and suffering. if u pair a sadist and a masochist together, it might make them both happy for a while, but if you look at the big picture, this is going to be an unhealthy relationship based around kinks and unhealthy behaviors . its going to make both ppl more mentally ill and toxic in the long run. im trying to think of other examples of this, where you pair two things together that seem beneficial and fulfill each others desires, but it also causes them to spiral deeper into degeneracy and makes them worse. like two AA members potentially dating, they have the potential to drag each other down into the abyss because their bond is based upon something toxic and harmful.
