it all makes sense when you realise the thing talking through nikki that was fixated on / obsessed with bear was the spirit of sandy, bear's cat

this movie is doing literally everything in its power to make sure you won't think that the womyn is doing any of the bad thing

elaborate?

>>220698686
Why do her eyes look like that?
>>
>>220699033
if you mean the squinting its because an inhuman thing inhabiting her is trying to act human / normal because her unnatural, erratic behaviour is causing bear to drift away from her. but it isn't human so it doesn't know how to act

if you mean the blackened eyes, lighting + symbolism

She only behaved like a BPD after he scrambled her brains with the wish

I thought that at first
watch it again but with the thought in mind that she's actually behaving like a cat that really loves its owner, but a cat trying to be a person
then you'll shit bricks

Everyone's debating about the "love" wording of the wish or whether or not she was possessed but my biggest gripe is
>Be Ian
>Is having a FWB with Nikki
>Tells Bear that it's a bad look that he's with Nikki while she's acting mentally unwell in the car ride
>Invites Bear exclusively to a party
>Nikki ends up coming anyway
>Nikki has a mental breakdown and hurts herself in front of everyone
>Lets Nikki leave the party with the guy you just confronted for using her instead of having Sarah, yourself, or any other party goer take her
>(Also the emergency room not taking her scene is retarded)
Is Ian a turbo retard? The party scenes were cool to watch and I thought the movie in general was still really good, but writing-wise this is the most low quality part of the movie.

Every obsession thread going forward should have (it's a horror movie) as a disclaimer, because a lot of midwits seem to forget they are watching a horror movie. It's actually a horror movie

why are you discussing a movie that doesnt even have a BRrip out yet?
>>
>>220699376
When someone says it's their interpretation, that's called being honest. When you write a paragraph that your sperg mind came up with that doesn't make it less headcanon than anyone elses. The other 2 greentext have nothing to do with your sentence. One was part of the interpretation, the other was in context to the discussion that had been ongoing and was referencing that, if you bothered to read. It's all quite logical which you're of course a big fan of.

>>220699391
The emergency room scene was a nurse arguing with Bear, not Ian

that's great, fag
but head canon is most often used as a cope for bad writing

my "head canon" is these complaints lose all merit if he wished for nikki to be obsessed with him instead of in love with him

I thought Bear was arguing with some hospital orderly. It looked to me like he tried to take her to the hospital and they failed to be admitted. It's clear that they didn't see a doctor, but I couldn't figure out why.

Nope, he said

>>
>>220699445
Yeah but that's not what happened in the movie and relevant explanations have been provided to you on why the things happened the way they did. Too many now. So if you cant accept that, there is nothing left to say. You dont like a movie. That can happen sometimes. I suggest for your mind that reading might be more to your taste. Maybe a setup guide? Like an instruction manual of a train set or something. It's very sequential and logical which is satisfying.

>>220699523
Seemed like a bit of both. Sarah said that Ian felt like it was directed at him, so clearly he was taking it personally and probably jealous. But I would guess that's mixed with genuine concern.
Wish we got to see the ride home Ian gives her. The one after the first night, where they're convinced she was taking MDMA and Ian tells Bear that she's all good.
>>
>>220699583
Just to add, am I crazy or did he say more than anyone in the fucking world? That "fucking" bit isn't in the trailer, but I swear it's what he says in the film. It's been a few days now so I'm fuzzy on this point

>>220699583
it's a more valid description of love, though, because it actually includes the word love

I don't understand. What indicates that it was the cat? She cooked the cat and fed it to him. This seems to be working with the assumption that cats are in agonizing pain constantly feeling unrequited love for their owner and looking at all strangers with murderous intent.
Do you have a good relationship with your cat? There are a lot of explanations that come to mind before I'd conclude that it was the cat character which we never saw alive.
>>
>>220699887
>She cooked the cat and fed it to him.
that was the real nikki's influence, in fact, you could argue this affirms my argument because the real nikki knows the cat's spirit is in control and she did this as a way to convey that. "the cat is in me, now its in you, share my pain"
its passive aggression at its finest

the film literally sets it up in the beginning. the first "event" we see is the dead cat and then bear crying over the loss. indicating he had a really good relationship with said cat and likely vice versa. then he fixates on nikki, hoping for a replacement in regards to that loss of companionship

and boom. the wish works, nikki is obsessed with him, but her particular style of obsession and behavioural anomalies are similar to that of a cat. including the strange movements. she moves rather cat like at times. and she practically moves in after the fact, taking sandy's place. and she is fixated on sandy too from the moment of "obsession", from the flowers and from the shrine she made for sandy while the body was still on the kitchen floor

I'll say it again to summarise, the spirit that was in control of nikki's body WAS sandy, with the wish compelling it / her to larp as nikki to obtain the love of bear

think about it logistically too. if you leave a wish like that open ended, its going to come to the most logical conclusion. which is to find an available spirit to put into the body that could take on that role. sandy's spirit is the most obvious solution to that problem. freshly dead, likely not fully cut off from the physical plane yet, loved bear already, as much as a cat can, so the wish just implanted that spirit into nikki's body as a quick solution. and everything after the fact is merely the spirit of a cat trying to act human but failing because well, it isn't human, and then it isn't nikki. so it just spiralled out and became extremely feral, just like a cat would if it was out of sync with its environment

There's an image floating around someone might post for you. It wasn't in the film but there's a few rules. Like no time manipulation allowed
Nothing about that though no
>>
>>220700047
I don't think its wrong I just think its intentionally subtle because the director doesn't want you to know, he just wants you to consider the possibility. because the beauty of the film is you don't know, and that not knowing is what makes it so spooky. but the cat angle, if it is legit, which I think it is, will only really be understood by a certain layer of fans, so there's something for everyone. most fans won't understand what is actually happening but not knowing is exactly what will make it a favourite for them. but then realising the cat angle is legitimate for that minority of fans that can understand, has the same effect for them. so you cover both bases. a bit like donnie darko innit. people are still talking about what actually happened in that film to this day and there's only just really been a consensus on it

there will be more films about similar scenarios emerging as a result of the wishes
eventually the authorities will go see her in a loony bin to get her inside take as the only survivor of wish related events that is cognizent enough to communicate what happened on her end
like after a few entries like obsession we will probably see a true detective type film where a couple of investigators look at the previous events of previous films, try to figure out why this keeps happening and we'll learn more about the source of the wishes and thats where she comes in

FFS HERE’S WHAT THE MOVIE ACTUALLY ROLLS WITH

THE WISH FORCIBLY REWIRES PART OF NIKKI’S BRAIN TO LOVE BEAR MORE THAN ANYONE ELSE WHILE LEAVING THE REST OF HER PERSONALITY INTACT AND FIGHTING BACK. THAT’S WHY SHE’S FRACTURED, ERRATIC, CREEPY AND SOMETIMES SELF-DESTRUCTIVE.

IT’S NOT A CLASSIC MONKEY’S PAW THAT TWISTS THE WORDS TO FUCK YOU. THE WISH BASICALLY SUCCEEDS, BUT FORCING SOMEONE TO LOVE YOU AGAINST THEIR WILL IS ALREADY A HORROR SHOW. THAT’S THE POINT.

STOP DEMANDING WISHMASTER WORDPLAY OR FULL DEMON POSSESSION. THE MOVIE SETS ITS RULE AND STICKS TO IT. IF YOU CAN’T HANDLE THAT INTERPRETATION THEN JUST SAY YOU WANTED A DIFFERENT MOVIE.
>>
>>220700647
I was wondering about this as well. I think it's plausible that your intentions get picked up with the wish. The word "love" can mean a lot of different things in different contexts.
Bear was in an agitated and selfish state of mind when he made the wish so I just figured that's what fucked his shit up.
>>
>>220698686
I don't need the movie to "make sense"
I don't give a shit what the magic mechanism was. I don't give a shit which, if any, particular spirit took over Nikki's body. Literally never crossed my mind and is of no concern. In fact, I think that the vagueness should be left unexplored.
I'm just here for the psycho kino and the lessons learned.

by far the most unsettling movie i’ve ever seen. seeing both halves of myself depicted like that. “i’ll be anything for you.” “please kill me she’s sleeping i beg you.” holy fuck. having a fp doesn’t always mean you love them, but it does mean you feel like you can’t live without them.

i’ve been w guys where i hated them but i couldn’t choose to stop thinking ab them or trying to find any way i could to speak to or be around them. even now with my boyfriend/husband who understands to the best capacity he can and never makes me feel bad for feeling or acting “crazy” the scenes about boys night and banging on the door were awful. the guy who made it either has to have bpd or his significant other. i sobbed the entire way through.
>>
>>220701972
the movie hints at that but it is ambiguous ultimately. if she did have some level of unresolved romantic attraction to him would she have broken up with ian if he confessed to her before the wish was made? if she didn't like him and only saw him as a brother then why press him to confess in beginning of the film? she should have taken it as a matter of course and said "i know you like me but i don't see you that way". there is a little (to stress, excusable and normal) cowardice and avoidance on her part as well when you look at it that way, though obviously this doesn't lessen the fault of bear making such a self-serving and dangerous wish and his other actions later on.
>>
>>220702069
Are you retarded? The whole point was he was such a massive pussy he pretended to just be friends with her when he madly in love with her. She even liked him so much she took a shot right before the wish and he still bitched out.

Thinking she hooked up with the fat dude to scorn him is turbo virgin thinking.

>>220702161
it depends
a lot of women will literally run a mile from who they actually like / love and intentionally get with someone who they don't like at all
women with bpd are especially notorious for this because having someone around who they love is the most triggering thing that can happen to them
manosphere types like to make out that women always have that one guy it never worked out with because they couldn't lock him down due to him being "alpha" but honestly I think its more common that the woman herself runs a mile and then regrets it for the rest of her life. and thats when you get weird stuff like them naming their first born son after that lost love or whatever

that being said, it looks like another viable theory is that actually nikki WAS in love with bear, like fully, but actively avoided it for one reason or another. and that perhaps the wish literally just unblocked that aspect of her own psyche and allowed it to manifest fully. which due to her own personal issues caused a schism, locked the other her, the (mask) which had actually become the real her away. so it was actually nikki after all, but it was the completely unrestricted nikki that she was intentionally trying to keep locked away like when someone with bpd runs a mile so they don't end up in a perpetual loop of limerance and discard and psychosis due to stress

bpd types do tend to fall for narcissistic types too, ironically, and I've seen some breakdowns of bear's character as the archetypal covert narcissist

Yeah what Bear did was awful. They also probably felt called out by the insane female behavior.
>>
>>220702161
It's not ambiguous at all. The first interaction they have is her calling him and begging him to come hang out because shes quiting. If they are just friends it wouldnt be a big deal because they can hang out after work but she likes spending all day with him. Then at the bar shes being flirty, on the ride home she wants to see if he like Sara (shes knows Sara likes him and is jealous) she giving him hints the whole time and then when he still doesnt say anything she asks him directly. It couldnt be more obvious.

idek desu but that does bring the question was it earned or was it just something bear called her
>>
>>220702394
sure, i don't disagree with you. even with that though there are arguments for nikki to only see bear as a brother. i think the movie is more coherent if she did have at least some level of feelings for him, even if confused and uncertain. the director said it's meant to be ambiguous and the actress thinks she did like a bear a little, i don't think either reading is wrong.

>>220702443
Nobody said it was BPD that's just a meme term getting thrown around. I mean, it would probably manifest in the guy in the same way. There will be overridden and their consciousness would be fighting against it

Nah, she just liked having him on the hook. It feels good to have someone obviously in love with you even if you don't have feelings for them. So she was manipulating him to get his affection even if she had no intention or desire of ever going further.
The whole "do you like me?" question was manipulative. She asks this because she can sense he's trying to work up the courage to ask her out and getting close. Putting him on the spot like this makes him nervous and feel dumb, delaying his asking her out and thus extending him being on her hook. If he had said yes it probably would've played out like
>Bear you're drunk just go home
or
>No you don't because if you do then our friendship changes and I don't want that. So you don't like me.
She never had any intention of a romantic relationship with Bear. She never had any intention of telling him about Ian either. She wanted to keep their relationship exactly as it was for her own selfish reasons, just like Bear did for his own selfish reasons.

This is a common thing that both sexes do. There are whole sitcom episodes about it. It's a shitty thing that people do to other people to make themselves feel good.

>>220702555
This is a very crucial thing that all people should learn, but it's something men women come to understand naturally.

Sometimes just knowing that a person would want you enough to actually take steps to be with you is a confidence boost. It empowers the individual because it let's them know they have value

cats will also violently attack anyone they see as a threat to their resource of (you)
>>
>>220702555
too much of a stretch to call her manipulative. at worst she was sending some mixed signals. as other posters have said she did try to get him admit his feelings but he couldn't do it. even if she was ok with letting the ambiguity of their emotional relationship stay it's not manipulative behavior.

Ian didn’t give a fuck about her and was mainly just using her as an easy bang.
Also “Freaky Nicki” had always been a little off balance and the simpler explanation of her randomly hooking up with bear and acting crazy at the party was just she was having a BPD episode and both were symptoms rather than it being the product of a fucking magic spell of a willow tree.
Know I’m in the minority as a sex Haber hear on 4chan but honestly none of the shit at the party was that out of place for an average BPD zoomer chick on ssris.
Bear himself experiences more then the norm with the whole weird dancing at night/standing at the door all day and pissing yourself but the party shit is literally just what happens to 30% of fuck age girls now when you give them alchohol.

I live in a small midwestern city, I worked fast food in my late teens/early 20's. I was 5"11 220lbs, not handsome but not hideous and definitely overweight.
In 2015, when I was 20 a girl from another store transferred over to our store. She was hot and became the talk of all the guys at the store.
We became friends because I was the only guy who wasn't intimidated by her and we ended up getting along great.
On my 21st birthday she took me out to a bar and after a few drinks started talking about how her boyfriend is a total homebody who never wants to go out with her.
Me and her started getting drinks after work pretty regularly. Within a month we were fucking. No romance really just casual sex behind her boyfriends back.
This went on for about 3 months before she dumped her boyfriend, got a job as a shot girl, and developed a coke habit. She cut contact with me shortly after that.

My point is, young people in low wage jobs like to have sex and will have sex with people you wouldn't expect.

kind of brilliant the way it weds the themes about toxic relationships with Bear's flaws. As a victim, he completely fails to grasp the gravity of the situation, brushing it off as if it were no big deal, just like someone coping trapped in such a toxic relationship would do. But that's also due to his egoistic obsession so myopic that he ignores and belittles her negative behavior. it's why I really dislike this flattening of him into just "evil" - end of discussion.

like the audience is meant to eventually turn and be fed up with him but what's presented by the text is a guy so blinded (even personified by the fog in the Sarah car scene), cognitively dissonant and deluded, obligated and trapped it just doesn't make sense to crunch that all down into a craven and even retroactive dyadic "evil" - there is a MUCH more evil version of this story

That he forcibly wished to happen
And when he thought he could maybe cancel it he instead wanted to simply change it
Awful cowardly "man"
You know, I wonder if he led with that he wanted to cancel it, the entity would have let him do it. But because he still wanted her to be in love with him, he faltered and asked for it to be altered, making the entity deny any chance of canceling unless he died, and then taunted him.

people can't extend him charity because Curry is trying to have his cake and eat it too in the writing. it's just preposterous that he could not have realized what was happening sooner if you read between the lines and scenes with a modicum of critical judgement and yet Curry insists with the text presented that this is a preposterous world and Bear just cannot internalize it and so it's a bit of the tail wagging-the-dog acting so unbelievable to get us from scary set piece to set piece, an assemblage of youtube short sketches - and then he crafts the emotional arc of the film to negate what was presented by the text with the dilemma.

no he asked to alter first and you don't know the nature of the alteration he'd make as he clearly does not yet understand the nature and reality of what's happened (doesn't he say "as a friend"?)- he also asks in that scene "is her love real?" he desperately wants that to be the case in that he does desire to cravenly control her, he's just all fucked up and confused which is why he then DOES ask to CANCEL

Nikki is trying to get unstuck in life. She's just stopped hooking up with a guy when the relationship isn't going anywhere, she's leaving her job to pursue new writing opportunities, and while she is clearly willing to give Bear a chance (not the same as not acting on a crush) but who wants to be with a guy that doesn't even like you enough to admit it or take the tiniest risk. Is he even ready to date or still dealing with his grandma's death?
She makes it as easy for him as she possibly can: "if you like me, this is the time to tell me." Nikki is moving forward, Bear is not.

>>220706221
she felt stuck in life, but she wasn't
her feeling stuck was her own doing, it was an internal thing not an external thing
that was made clear with her dialogue in the car
she felt stuck, but she actually wasn't
one thing that really gave it away was she said nobody would ever know who she liked
she felt stuck because she wasn't being herself nor even being honest about who she was
its a common mistake that people think you can go elsewhere and just become yourself because there's no baggage
it doesn't work like that. you take your baggage with you
she could've resolved her internal stuckness anywhere
and she actually tried to do that when she asked bear if he liked her
because one of the major things she was stuck with, was him and her feelings for him
but he was just as stuck as her, if not more
and thats why she reacts to him the way she does for example with freaky nikki
him saying that is completely off the cuff and inappropriate, forced and out of context, like he was trying to force a level of rapport unnaturally
she sensed that
that he was trying to convey something unnaturally, something she wanted to hear but not in that format
and it reminder herself of her own "stuckness"
which is really what made her have a visceral reaction
she was never stuck, she just felt stuck and attached emotionally to someone else who was also stuck

Moral of the story is don't be a hopeless simp if someone says you're like a brother to them

I think everyone is thinking she liked bear waaaaay more than how much she did. I'd say she liked him probably 5%, like a background thought of "I'm not into this guy, and he's like a brother, but maybe if he grows some balls and says something I'll entertain it and give it some thought"
I don't think she was emotionally attached to him much at all, he was emotionally attached to her since she helped me through a lot of things.
>>
>>220706486
I can see why you'd think that but from what I know about women is they avoid the guys they actually like, like the fucking plague and fuck the guys they know they won't get attached to. its actually rare that you'll find out if a girl actually likes you. and even if they end up in relationships and look loved up and what not. they actually don't think that highly of the guy they're with, its more the situation they love and how it makes them look. so I think she actually had it bad for him and saw massive potential there for something special which is why she avoided it. because she wasn't honest with herself about herself, she was stuck through having a bad relationship with herself so opening herself up to a relationship with someone else based on a mutual connection would be the last thing she was ready for and she would've been terrified of that. especially if there's a shit family history there too
>>
>>220706531
>its actually rare that you'll find out if a girl actually likes you.
I'm 35, from my life experience I've had about 6 girls initiate with me (4 led to long term relationships), I actually only let one girl know I liked her first. Hard for me to agree when it's been the opposite for me
>>
>>220706659
yeah, thats normal
what I'm saying is none of them actually liked you
you were just a safe option for them at the time
women are too emotionally erratic to be with the guys they actually want
so they pick the safe guy thats "acceptable" who will be a good long term investment and not likely bring their psychotic side out
thats how hypergamy works
women never approach men that they perceive as being above them in value because they're too insecure, if they approach you its because they know they can have you and want you for a specific reason
and women want that which they cannot have or that which is rare above all else, so they run from it because you evoke a visceral reaction from them at a primal level, of being potentially inaccessible when they are hardwired to get the highest value (in their mind) man they can get
its basic evo psych m8
makes no difference to you because you still get tail so there's no use in a blow to the ego but its not as cut and dry as you'd think

when bear is reciting his declaration to nikki and the girl is like omg this is everything
it was honestly really good and if he said it THE WHOLE THING WOULD'VE BEEN SO MUCH DIFFERENT and he probably would've ended up with her but fat cunt ian spazzed out and said it was cringe
holy shit I hate him so much
ian was always the main villain

>>220707995
lmao, nikki never liked bear that way. she told sarah that bear was loved like a friend.
>>
>>220708009
she also said nobody would ever know who she liked

ian was sabotaging it from the start holy fucking shit

and it was ian who told him to call her freaky nikki aaaaaaaaaaaaa you utter bellend ian

and he's telling bear to wait
why is ian even banging the girl he knows his mate loves
what the fuck
I would smash his head in
>>
>>220705625
I think she makes good points but I would still argue that Bear has an inability to deal with his shame and yearning for Nikki in a healthy way (inability to control self), which causes him to attempt to control the external world to deal with his feelings instead. Just because he does not wish for direct control over Nikki does not mean it was not an act born out of a desire for control.

Someone just watched Mirai Nikki and knew they could turn it into a generic less crazy western horror movie and everyone would praise it.

I agreed with you with the cat theory but this is actually just insane, there's 4 billion women out there, many of which will make the first move with someone they like, life isn't black and white like you think it is. Actually you know what, the cat theory is dumb

its evo psych mate, I've studied it
all human beings live within certain behavioral parameters set by biology and environment and other factors
we are not completely free agents
we have a degree of agency within a closed behavioral system
that means women follow similar behavioral patterns across the board, but yes, some may deviate

hahaha

but she meant he lost his cat

The strength required to turn someone's head to a pulp like that must be insane, demon freaky Nikki is built different
>>
>>220708278
I will also add that possessed Nikki's actions are also born out of an inability to control her emotional state and so instead trying to project control externally at any cost, though she's more sympathetic because her emotions are at supernaturally high levels beyond the ability of any human to self control. Bear is just a bitch.

Cool

Now why would Bear go and make her do that baka

People can blame Bear all they want for being a little bitch about never making a move on Nikki (even when she gave him an opportunity) or for making the wish, but all this could've been avoided if Sarah had just told Bear she liked him from the start.
>>
>>220699362
>has secret feelings for the biggest loser
I keep seeing people say this but nowhere in the movie is it even hinted that Nikki liked Bear. In fact there's tons of evidence to the contrary, from secretly fucking his best friend, to getting the ick and saying "ew" at the joking suggestion that she's "his girl" by Ian, to the whole "she saw you like a brother"/ Hansel & Gretal bit, putting in her notice at work, annoyingly asking outright if Bear liked her.
>but the director said so in an interview
Then he's a retard who doesn't understand his own movie.

That's kind of the point.
He enables this and is an example of a perfect victim in a bpd relationship because he's always weak. He can't take responsibility and is focused on his own needs, becoming abusive and complicit because it's easier than taking responsibility.

Nikki is a toxic friend who becomes a victim to possession.
Ian is a fake friend who was sabotaging Bear.
Sarah is an innocent and soft art girl that just gets ignored.

It's a horror movie about about possession with a BPD relationship being the model for the horror. Everything not explicitly supernatural (strength, weird movements) is just 1:1 stereotypical bad cases of bpd women in relationships

>>220705625
Good takes. Everyone agrees that Bear is pathetic and a rapist but some idiots take it so far as him wanting control and domination or calling him a stereotypical 'nice guy'. Hes not. He's a weak man wanting affection for nothing and suddenly has to deal with really, really harsh consequences for his off the wall thoughts and can't deal with where it leads him. He doesn't have the self confidence or self worth to be there for himself or others and the situation makes it more evident and worse.

I'm legitimately surprised the fake Nikki didn't opt for sex more.
I suppose it would take away from the idea that Bear's focus is affection.

I think it was the real Nikki trying to break out, like whenever she acts super psycho its like she's short circuiting as a result of the real Nikki clawing her way out and fighting back against the obsessive personality possessing her body. Still trying to figure out what she was saying in that backwards walking bit though

No, inspiration. Like the anons said. Saying this shows you know nothing about the history and language of film.
And if he was buff you would say yeah well he's on steroids. It's all the same mentality with you people. He's 26 and sold his first feature film for 15 million. You're currently in a thread about his movie. What have you done?

I don’t see any merit in the cat theory. It’s connecting dots where there are none and making huge logical leaps about how a cat in a human body would act towards its owner and other people close to that owner
>>
>>220699884
he had no reason to think it would work or wasn't anything more than a dumb gag gift so it was so it was basically the equivalent of like throwing a coin in a fountain and making a wish
>>
>>220701203
So you watched the movie drunk and you’re trying to throw out this stupid cat theory as well. Makes sense

>>220711250
no she did have feelings for him

No she didn’t absolute smooth brained retard

>>220710468
don't hate cats but that Anon is right every guy I've ever met who owns a cat for himself is the biggest pussy(lmao). they really are a woman's pet
>>
As a woman I think it’s relevant because it reenforces the fact that Bear is a pussy ass bitch who turns into a villain. He did not want to EARN her love. True to the incel mindset he felt entitled to her. He had the option of coming clean with his feelings. Maybe even getting a couple of dates. But he would have had to risk rejection and face reality—he and Nikki are not compatible. He is a shell of a human with barely any identity. She is/was vibrant and full of life, and has artistic goals. His greatest goal is to fuck/have the hottest girl he knows.

Like that food critic shit was so funny. Bear does not cook or show any interest in food. He has no idea who he is. Then he robs Nikki of who she is.
>>
>>220711421
>no one knows when I have a crush on someone
Not that anon but she did. It is left somewhat ambiguous on purpose but a layer to the tragedy of the situation is that she would have given him a shot if he just asked her out. She literally gave him the opportunity to ask her out directly. The actress has also confirmed this
You shouldn't be calling people retarded. You currently have the reddit opinion of "bear was a total rapist taking advantage of a girl who never would have dated him" Nope. She would have. That's part of this fucked up situation.
