Not you too! Tch, I thought I could count on my cynical jackals but you’re all falling for Milton.

He is level headed and rational, but I think it’s because he believes he’s so much better than everyone else so doesn’t value their opinions. I think Lydia is drama and phoniness personified, but the way he invalidated her feelings and twisted the conversation at dinner from Lydia’s (quite legitimate) issue with him being a slob and never respecting her and her opinions to her issues and behaviour was kind of shitty.

Like yes, her behaviour sucked but he repeatedly refuses to change his own behaviour and continues to dismiss other people’s values, viewpoints and emotions as irrelevant. It’s like he’s a teenager, unable to empathise with anything outside of himself.

His mother I love and she basically said the same thing, that he kept leaning on her and she wanted him to stand up and be a grown up but that she didn’t think he was there yet. And his attitude proves to me she’s right, he’s clearly been told he’s smart his whole life and has piss-poor emotional intelligence because of it.

He’s probably the most decent person on there but….nnnn

The guys are so fucking awful that Milton ends up being good in comparison. But don't worry, I'm more than ready to accept he's a jackass too, best believe that a man will never be the hill I die on, especially not one who goes on Love is blind lol

God, thank you for this! I'm reading these comments like how the hell did ontd fall for this?!?! His total lack of a emotion and hand waving anyone else's emotions is such a red flag. He's immature as fuck, so Idk how anyone here thinks he's the most mature? Also, Lydia shouldn't have to constantly tell this man to pick up his towels and wash his dishes.
