Right episode, wrong time...

Win Metawin carried this entire episode!!

I'll be very direct, I like this kind of dramatic tone, here, unlike the previous episode, they gave us more depth for us to feel a little more of Tine's insecurities, it finally showed us, after 11 episodes, how deep is Tine's love for Sarawat. And knowing that he loves him so intensely made me feel more complete with this BL story. I like that, and for me, that (and Type and Man's arc) were the only things that saved this episode. But, because we have already seen thousands of similar scenes, of Tine being jealous or insecure (in each ep), this ep, which was supposed to be the most special for really showing us how strong the love of Tine is, it was just a little boring, unfortunately... Because it was just more than what we had already seen in previous episodes, someone in the middle of their relationship causing insecurity in someone else.

I think this episode should have been 9, 10 or 11, this kind of drama from the penultimate episode seems so RANDOM, as if they just wanted to, again, create tension to keep the audience until the last episode, terrible . The production of this BL really got completely lost after ep 10.

And WTF happened to Sarawat who just started acting like he was another person????? Okay, still he looked worried about Tine, but not as much as he was before. Normally, if he saw Tine feeling sick like that, he'd stop anything to take care of him. And he always pushed away people who tried to get close, now just because Pam is his first love, he can't do that ?????? What the actual fuck!!!????

But like I said, the fact that it delved into Tine's feelings for Sarawat and was pretty intense, and the scenes where the Man practically had a "reality check" while having dinner with Type's rich friends, is what saved the ep.But like I said, the fact that it delved into Tine's feelings for Sarawat and was pretty intense (thank u Win for your amazing acting), and the scenes where the Man practically had a "reality chock" while having dinner with Type's rich friends, is what saved the ep.

Good! but fell short.

This was a great fluff episode but its kinda felt weird at the end like instead of lovers they were really close friends, i mean really close lol, there was no hug no kiss no touch.. any sign of affection would of been nice but it still was a good episode. I love the background characters Green and Dim were fantastic and the Type and Man arc was very good. The writing was all over the place, in some parts, and it didn't make sense in context to the situation but at least we got one of the cutest scenes with Sarawat confessing about the prayer and how all along he was trying to get to Tine and kinda screwing up a lot :DAll in all a decent episode that kinda lost traction at the end.

Episode 12 reminded me that 2gether is about first love and the mistakes done while in love

Okay, so episode 11 fell flat into the abyss that even I, the reigning Queen of Darkness 2020-2021, couldn't fathom where it went. It's better for it to just disappear. Never to be found again. If it's shown again to me, I'll pretend it didn't happen, nor existed. HOWEVER, I think ep 12 redeemed the series. (Except for that damned bracelet being found then everything's fine and dandy, everything else was sound and I've no complaints). Top-notch acting, most especially on Win Metawin's side. Watching him cry broke my soul and left it to ash as it burned. It's a little bit frustrating because everything could've been prevented if Wat just told Pam to duck off, and for Tine to tell him exactly how he felt, but the show is about first loves. And first loves are cute and fluffy, but if you're in it, it's just messy. It's like walking in total darkness.


I'm both happy and sad (because Tine had to cry like that and I had to pretend to argue with my cat to have an excuse for crying) that this happened, but it made episode 13 something to look forward to. I'm even hoping for a 2nd season, but maybe have it with a higher classification rating?


I've read a lot of people talking about how communication is key. Real-life couples struggle with communication. Even the strongest of relationships struggle with opening up emotions. As someone in the mental health field, I've had conversations with married individuals and/or couples that have difficulty expressing what they want to their significant other. It doesn't mean that their connection is weak, it just means that the human side, the side that refuses to show vulnerability even to our loved ones, is rearing its evil and ugly head. It doesn't matter whether you've been married for 1, 5, 10, 20, 30 or so years, you're both human and there are some parts of you that you want to keep for yourself. Especially the ones that you consider your weakness.


They are, in the essence of the show, dealing with a first love. First loves are always difficult because both parties had never felt the strength of emotions focused on one person. On one hand, you want to be the center of this person's universe, so you try to change yourself or do things that would make the person love you more. Is that a good thing? NO. Like Sarawat, he felt an attraction to Tine the first time he saw him. Gradually, he felt genuine love and care for him because he finally had gotten to know who Tine was. He was no longer a fantasy with a cute smile. He doesn't want to change Tine.


However, Tine felt insecure because, in the biggest role reversal of the century, he was being pursued. He was used to it being the other way around. Instead of giving, he felt he was receiving more than reciprocating. So he felt that Wat could easily be snatched by someone else because he thinks he's not doing more for him. He has been having doubts ever since the beginning whether he's enough for Wat and if he's doing enough for the relationship. He is too focused on his perceived flaws that he completely failed to see that Sarawat was just waiting for him to open up to him. But! His human side wants to completely hide his vulnerability, in fear of embarrassment or being hurt in the end.


I don't have any issue with Sarawat letting Tine have his space to cry. In my point of view, I saw it as, 'okay, you go have your emotions, but you can trust me to help you deal with it. Just come to me.' It was a mature thing to let your significant other to have his/her moment and not push the other person to open up. But Tine was too caught up in his mental narrative that Wat could be taken away by Pam, that he was too blind to see anything else.


Needless to say, Tine had never felt anything as intense as he felt for Sarawat. He didn't want to talk about his feelings because he didn't want to appear weak. Weakness, to him, could be perceived as not being good enough. He wanted to be equal to Sarawat. In all aspects.


Also, why are people saying that Sarawat was being all shady? He TALKED about Pam being his first love to Tine - or person that he liked, not first love as in, a partner. My boy didn't keep it from Tine. He reassured Tine each and every time that he's the one for him. He was going to ditch school and the important band practice just to take care of him. It was Tine who failed to see that Wat was doing his best for him. That his boyfriend was ready to give up everything for him.


Yeah, Sarawat could've just told Pam to back the eff off, but he did care for her once upon a time. He didn't want to hurt her and with the personality of Sarawat, he has no idea how to approach the subject.


Sure, Tine could've just told Wat how he felt. But then again, everything was new to him. Like what I wrote, he didn't want to appear weak because he wants to be seen as an equal.


Also, if Tine told Sarawat everything, we wouldn't have this story. Tumultuous as it was and it might have been used before in other BL stories (this trope of misunderstandings and miscommunications HAVE been done before, plus a woman as a 3rd party???????), it worked. It made me feel nostalgic. It reminded me how stupid and immature I was when I was in love for the first time.


We also got to see Win Metawin's brilliance in acting. It burned my soul and I'm not sure how to recover from it.

This episode hurts!

SPOLIERS!! This episode was so full of emotions. I was never expecting Sarawat's first love to return (I have never read the novel so this is all new to me). You can see the emotion when Tine sees Sarawat and Pam hugging. I started crying so hard when he ran out and cried. I'm excited to see how the finale is. I hope it is long and gives us the closer with Phukong and Mil as well as the endng with Type and Man, as that was a mess in this episode. When Type's P' started "teasing" Man at Type's farewell party for his ending at the intership, you can obviously tell that Man was hurt and Type was uncomfortable, whether it's from the teasing or the responses Man was saying. But when you saw Type choose to ride with his P' over riding with Man, you can see his heart break. From the teaser for the finale, we see some "action" from all three couples. I hope we see a happy ending for all of them.
