It just seems...I would agree with the first story. It just seems to leave a bad taste in my mouth but the second story, I see as less awful. I live in a college town where football is everything so I get it. I, also, understand the not reporting a potential rape. He didn't believe her and there was no precedence in place. I don't have to like it to understand it. He goofed and, obviously, it bothers him. He may not have done anything to fix the situation but even his confession shows he's a better person than he was. <br />I haven't read either but based on your description, I would feel less dissatisfied with book number two. He made a mistake and it wasn't something he did to her. However, book one - he was doing it to her and then going oops. I have no faith that he wouldn't continue to manipulate her in one way or another.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
