Mmm. I know this is probably going to spawn some Mako!Hate, but, I think it's funny that the creators of the show stated they doidn't think Mako would be hated. It was stated "He's just a regular teenage boy"

You're supposed to root for Mako and Korra. And honestly? It's just a teen romance, not someone married for ten years with kids.

[fadeinthewash]

To be fair, teen romance/childhood sweethearts being the endgame for life is kinda over-represented in fiction.

"I think it's funny that the creators of the show stated they doidn't think Mako would be hated. It was stated "He's just a regular teenage boy"

Maybe they should have run Mako's characterization by some of their female friends because if they really said that, what the writers consider normal teenage male behavior is what most women consider utter dickwad behavior.

If they expect to salvage Mako's likeability (for anyone but ship-blinkered Makorra fans, that is) then he needs to cowboy up & tell Asami he wants to be with Korra. I've seen the new trailer, and if that Makorra scene happens before he and Asami break up (and I'm willing to bet it does) he'll be in for even more hating.

[zenity]

I think it's alright to hope for your Mako to choose you, OP. However, I hope your Mako handles his situation better than the real Mako does.

[(Anonymous)]

I hope I don't come across as an asshole, but don't be so sure your crush is totally in love with you. It could end up hurting a lot of people, including yourself. I wish you luck.

[kallanda_lee]

I think you need to...stop projecting the situation/lives of fictional characters on your own love triangle.

Even if people have similar looks (or even personalities) that has no bearing on how your real life situation will play out. I know it can be painful to watch a show that hits close to home...but on the other hand, I think it's wonderful that shows actually can capture these real life emotions.

Hang in there, anon, and good luck with your crush.

...Yeahhhh. Makorra is most likely endgame. (SORT OF RELATED BUT NOT REALLY)

In a show, it's different, but real life? I hope your crush breaksup with his girlfriend before doing anything with you. If he doesn't, well, I don't think he'd be able to care about you very much, IMHO.

Re: KORRAEPISODE11CLIP

[kallanda_lee]

This is good advice. The thing with cheaters is: if they will cheat on their SO to be with you - well, you already know they'd be capable of cheating on you too.

So much this.

Re: KORRAEPISODE11CLIP

[(Anonymous)]

Yesss. This is a dangerous situation to be the Korra in. People can't choose the way they feel, but anyone who strings someone along while in another relationship is likely to cause a lot of hurt. I'd say back off and forget him until he breaks up with his Asami.

Re: KORRAEPISODE11CLIP

[(Anonymous)]

yeah, last time an anon linked us to previews of mako and korra in the same frame telling us it was CERTAIN ENDGAME it turned out those scenes had nothing even remotely stand outy as potential shipping

except being in same frames and maybe talking to each other.

[(Anonymous)]

Projecting can get dangerous. And it will hurt in the long run, because your life is not a scripted TV show.

But anon--you can't be sure that he really likes you. I've felt that way many times, but was ultimately proven wrong. And the times I was right, I stayed away anyway because the Asami would get hurt and if the Mako really liked me and wanted to be in a relationship with me, he would sort out his own feelings and break it off with her before talking to me. (And if I were you, I wouldn't date a guy who "makes it clear" that he's crazy about one girl while dating another. But that's just me, OP.)

[(Anonymous)]

*starting a relationship with

not talking, argh sleep deprivation

[(Anonymous)]

A-plus comment anon, typo or not.

[(Anonymous)]

Is that supposed to be Michael Jackson in a wig?

[(Anonymous)]

Well at least you guys feel a little bit guilty about your!Asami's feelings and I hope you'll try to end this situation as gently as possible. Mako in the show doesn't give two shits about Asami's feeling. Korra doesn't either, but really it seemed to me more like because she was still not sure if Mako does or does not like her (which is understandable, the guy is so frustratingly indecisive)

[chanterofelegies]

Is your Mako a jerk?

[natural_blue_26.livejournal.com]

...Why does part of me think this is the same Mako!fan anon that's been around recently? (As this crush situation would actually explain a lot.)

Regardless of whether you are that anon or not OP, the heart wants what the heart wants, but if you think this guy is perfectly okay cheating on his current girlfriend, why would you think he wouldn't do the same to you? Sounds from the secret at least that he's the type to have his cake and eat it too, etc.

If his intentions are good and he REALLY feels so gosh darn guilty why exactly doesn't he break up with her AND THEN move on to exploring the possibilities of other relationships?

[cloud_riven]

This is mutual, right? Dude could have the grace to at least let his girlfriend know, or break up with her. It would suck for anyone to think they're obligated to maintain a relationship they're ni longer invested in. It's cool you don't want to step on the other person's feelings, but is it really worth shafting your own?

(somewhat off topic, but that's what bugs me about mako actually. Not the part where he's confused about his feelings for these girls, but the dishonesty and tendency to keep leading them on)

[(Anonymous)]

Honestly? I'd suggest stop projecting - that's probably only going to end with you getting even more hurt at some point. Also, if you're really in a situation similar to them...then are you so sure that he actually is that 'in love' with you? I ask because the fact he hasn't left her, even though he knows that he's 'in love' with you is usually a good sign that *something* in what he's saying is off somehow. If he's using the 'I just can't leave her right now!' excuse? Then something is *really* starting to smell like a fish market.

Seriously though, if there is any real level of similarity between the two triangles, I'd suggest sitting down one day and thinking about what's going on, and how this situation is impacting all three of you...and if you really want to remain in a situation like that.

[(Anonymous)]

if your crush acts anything like mako does I hope the "asami" wises up and dumps his ass and that you move on and realize there are more important things in the world than fawning over an idiot teenage boy who has no idea what he wants.

[fadeinthewash]

I haven't had to deal with a love triangle, but the last guy I dated had a similar degree of "I love you and you're great, but I dunno, it seems so difficult to be together..." going on (he took a job on the other end of the country). He, too, was crazy about me and made me feel so special and cared for... until the day he wasn't and didn't.

I'm just saying, some people really like the easy way out or not rock the boat, even when it comes to being with (or not) someone they claim to adore. And in other cases (speaking again from a different personal experience), you can get so caught up in someone else's feelings for you that you (unintentionally) lead them on, but ultimately it's a longer-term "heat of the moment" situation. Plus, as others have pointed out, if he really is crazy about you, why isn't he already 'officially' with you? How honest is he being with his Asami?

Good luck, secret poster. I hope everything comes to a happy (enough) and relatively painless conclusion, one way or another.

[(Anonymous)]

Except

1- Mako hasn't chosen and 2- Aside from her initial silly crush announcement, Korra hasn't done anything else that can be taken as romantic. Maybe she moved on like Bolin did and the only one who hasn't is Mako.

[(Anonymous)]

Here's a thought; maybe you should look for some other guy who's unattached, rather than pine for someone else's.
