>>2847676There is a chance they hurt other people too, its in their nature. What's to say someone will come to love Asuka? What's to say she will even let someone come close to her? Hence, hedgehogs.
>And seeing it from Asuka's point of view, I find it difficult for her to just accept Shinji so easily. Her pride is too strong for that.She actually did try, but Shinji pushed her away in his own way. She says he hurt her feelings, and she was mad how he doesn't understand her. There is something there, but its too messed up. Is it love? Is it loathing? Its too vague and cryptic.
>I don't intend to offend you or your family, but those kind of relationship are extremely dangerousMy mother was kind of like Asuka, always angry and very abusive. There was love there, but very complicated. She slapped my older sister as a baby, made her bleed. Treated my father like garbage, he could only drown his sorrows in beer. He tries to kill himself once several years after she died, until he found someone better.
Mother died of cancer when I was 19, both my parents had really fucked up childhoods and had an abusive marriage. It affected me in a pretty bad way.
