Oh ffs 🤦‍♀️I mean, the woman can’t even keep her occupation drama and conflict-free. But this is exactly what I’m saying. She can’t write a romcom because she’s never had a happy, cute romantic relationship.

And to be clear: I’m not criticizing her for possibly having had only abusive relationships in her life and becoming desensitized to it. But I am criticizing her for passing abuse off as simply “enemies to lovers” - except without them ever loving each other - for financial gain. It’s okay to talk about abuse and express what it means to you, but it is not okay to pass it off as something it’s not and misrepresent the dynamic, possibly influencing readers who are in abusive relationships (and already vulnerable and impressionable) into thinking their situation is normal and just “romantically tragic.”
