omg. I'm not a Mako stan, but he was NOT "actively cheating" on Asami. Korra kissed him, he kissed back a little, but that was it. No, it wasn't good, but since Mako already decided he was going to be with Asami, not Korra, the kiss was nothing but a bad mistake. Frankly, one kiss isn't all that bad, either - I'm sorry, I can't sympathize with this harping that he's a disgusting human being because of it. After that, sure, he liked Korra, but he liked Asami, too. But he committed himself to Asami, and that was it. the end.

jesus christ, you'd think Mako murdered a puppy for all the hate he gets.

He fucking kept pursuing Korra. He freaked out when she was kidnapped, whereas he barely reacted when Bolin almost had his bending taken away. It was not a single bad mistake. It was a bunch of "mistakes."

And he committed himself to Asami my ass. If he liked Korra so much, he should have broken up with Asami before pursuing the Avatar.

If it was just the kiss, sure. BUT IT WASN'T. JUST. A FUCKING. KISS.

Are you joking? He freaked out when Korra was kidnapped and therefore CHEATING DOUCHEBAG? Wow, that logic. So, he isn't allowed to freak out when someone he cares about is in danger? holy crap. Obviously he likes Korra, but it WAS just a kiss - that's the only thing he did to cheat on Asami, he can't change his feelings. No, he wasn't an ideal boyfriend but frankly? He wasn't the worst boyfriend ever to grace the pages of fiction, either. He and Asami dated a couple of weeks, and it didn't work out.

And since WHEN did he not freak out when Bolin was kidnapped? that's just... incorrect, I can't even.

Would you be alright if your significant other had someone else kiss them and did not reel back but instead returned it? Would you sit there and say, "Oh he didn't cheat on me. It was a mistake"? Returning physical affection, in whatever way shape or form while in a relationship with another, is considered a form of cheating. Sure it may not be as severe as him fucking her but it's still a form of cheating.

After that, sure, he liked Korra, but he liked Asami, too. But he committed himself to Asami, and that was it.

But he didn't. He kept going after Korra and telling her how wonderful and amazing she was behind Asami's back. If after the kiss he had been like "Sorry Korra I'm with Asami" and backed off completely that would be one thing but he didn't. If he liked both Korra and Asami why didn't he just tell Asami they needed a break so he could figure things out rather than stay with Asami throughout the whole thing?

In addition Mako never seemed remorseful for anything. At the very least he should have been remorseful for hurting Asami feelings and I'm sorry but the half assed apology we got in the finale does not cut it.
