If someone said they enjoy something, why did you reply about how you think it's bad? It's a story that means a lot to them.

That’s a good question. It’s not like I was trying to be cruel or anything, but I can see where what I said could come off that way.

That said, I don’t think there’s anything inherently wrong about disagreeing with someone. The “ick factor” as I called it is genuinely something that I think doesn’t get discussed sufficiently. The musical was WILDLY popular, and I can absolutely understand. It won the Tony for best musical. The portrayal of insecurity and depression is certainly moving, if basic.

But I also think the show could’ve been better. Evan should’ve come clean before fucking the girl he’d been lying to the whole show. And I find it baffling that anyone would think otherwise.

I know this is the Internet where the other users don't have feelings, but come on.

Again, I wasn’t trying to hurt anyone’s feelings. I don’t think I said anything that wasn’t warranted. This is a public forum, if someone doesn’t want to participate in public discussion the onus is on them, not those who respond without malice. If you make statements you open yourself to disagreement, which is a healthy part of communication. Life isn’t everyone agreeing about everything all the time, or it would be boring.
