I am just so disappointed with SOME of the reactions I've read regarding baekhyun & taeyeon's relationship. Everyone who thinks that these idols deliberately hurt them should GROW THE FUCK UP. Yes, you have the right to feel heartbroken over what transpired. Yes, you also have the right to share what you feel on every fucking social media platform there is; but you have no freaking right to dictate as to whether their choices are wrong or right. These two people are normal human beings who deserve to date anyone they want. They have the right to use their OWN sns accounts for whatever purpose they want. Feeling sad or disappointed is okay but cursing their relationship and their choices is not.

Why are people being so fucking possessive? Spare me the bullshit story that you "invested everything on them" or that "they need to respect you out of everything you've done for them". All I'm hearing is that you think you deserve to curse at them and tell them that what they're doing is wrong because your money puts food on their table. You know what, my mother works for a real estate company that sells millions of property to people every year. She has the obligation to please her customers with regards to the houses she sells them and their money allows us to live in comfort, but if they feel offended by her personal life choices (i.e. Whatever she posts on her facebook account or who she decides to date) then she doesn't have any obligation to apologize or cater to the desires of other people. She provided them her service and that's the end of the story. Same goes for this issue; baekhyun and taeyeon just have to do their jobs, whether it be performing or filming or doing pictorials. They do not need to adjust to your expectations of them because the things they do, which is something that normal human beings do, hurt or offend you. Sure they market themselves as perpetually single droids who are there for your existence but this, kids, is called advertising; and if you believe that anything that is advertised should be regarded as true then you should get your but off your computer and actually live in the real world.

Some fans are feeling betrayed because they believed in what these idols told them. I understand that. You can feel whatever you feel but when you start taking everything they did or will do against them then you should stop. Why? Because these two also have the luxury of making mistakes and just like us, they can decide for themselves what they can't and can do. If they think that their relationship is something they won't regret publicizing then so be it. It's their life and I'm sure that they know what's right or wrong for them better than any of us hiding behind our computer screens.

In conclusion, nobody forced you to spend your life's fortunes and your personal time on them. It was all on you. You didn't fall for these people, you fell for SM's marketing strategies; and if you think that baekhyun and taeyeon deceived you then you are obviously not mature enough to dictate their life choices. I suggest you go back to school and try to determine the dynamics of how businesses make profit. They are not liars, but rather opportunists whose public life is driven by what their company tells them to do. Their personal life and choices are theirs and theirs only. At the end of the day, fans are just consumers and these idols are not products, but service employees. Once they've done the service their job entails them, in this case to perform (since they are singers), that is the end of the story. We should be grateful enough because the fanservice they provide is just extra. If you think that you can dictate their actions then you see them as products and not humans. Just like us, their lives do not stop at their careers, they deserve to live freely, love freely, and instagram freely. Thus, I can accept your comments saying how sad you are or you hope this is just a dream; but if you start saying that what they did is wrong and will cause their downfall or that they deserve to hit rock bottom then that means that you have no respect for them as fellow human beings, and you should not look for any respect from them in return.
