This! He has never told her his needs and made himself smaller and smaller. Even after the incident with Paulo when she tried to mention it he hand waved it away and said his friend was just irrational. For all she knows he also is busy with school and friends and has no problem with her calling when she is able. They have almost never talked about serious stuff, even when they chatted every day it was mostly heart emojis back and forth.

2021-03-27 01:42:42 +0000 UTCI look at it this way. Mike is completely responsible for the relationship he is in. He never brought up his insecurity with Sandy and this has allowed her to think that everything is fine. For all we know, she could be thinking "With my busy life, I am glad I have a low maintenance boyfriend like Maishul~". Her life is hectic, she might think Mike's life is just as 'full'. I bet, if she was really aware of his needs, she would not be willing to continue whatever relationship they have. Mike's insecurities go even deeper, he pushed Lucy out of his life because the feelings he had for her were a 'threat' to his relationship with Sandy if you really get down to it. He used Sandy's reaction to his offhand comment about Lucy "decking him in the shin" as justification for cutting her out of his life. He is never willing to address his feelings and just used Sandy's disapproval as an excuse. Its sad, because you know if Sandy knew what Lucy did to herself as a result of what Mike said, I think her view of him might be different.
