Don't let others pay for your loss

The show eschews the basic issues of general gay dramas: discrimination, politics, AIDS, etc., and even sex stops at the point. Patrick has a saying, people know you are gay, they will say, oh, then you use the latter one. I think the intention of the entire production team is that all kinds of attention and curiosity about gays are actually misunderstandings. Their lives are not so different from heterosexuals, and they also face various problems of work and emotions.
A scene where Patrick talks to his mother is intriguing. He blamed his mother for influencing his choice of boyfriend - because he always looked at people with his mother's eyes and perspective, which made him very uncomfortable. Perhaps he had a point in what he said, but it wasn't so tenable when he thought about it: when a person is an adult, can he blame his parents for the shortcomings inherent in him? (It's like, can parents blame their child's poor grades on his laziness and lack of study?) For Patrick, good friend Agustin always hits the nail on the head: Are you making these so-called boyfriend things to prove to us, or to show them to me? Prove it yourself? You are very casual, and you are just having an affair with your boss. Emotionally, Patrick is lost, because he does not understand his own needs, so he is eager to do it; at work, he is also lost, knowing that he does not want to be a "level designer" all the time, but he does not work hard for change ; In family life, he is also like an "outsider", not even aware that his mother is taking antidepressants.
In contrast, Agustin seems to be more able to see the essence of things, but only to others. I like this character setting very much: he sees people and things from a unique angle and is rather vicious. But it is such a person who made a mess of his life, played with fire, lost his job and lost his love. In my opinion, he's more lost than Patrick :P at least trying to turn things around and A just sitting on the sidelines.
Among the three good friends, the most reliable one is Dom. At the age of 40, he is a restaurant waiter, and he seems to be a loser; he was given 8,000 yuan by his ex-date or would not come back. But he took the real step at the age of 40 and decided to open a restaurant and really go for it.
What I like most about this show is the life style that is almost in line with it - your rich and handsome boss wants to have sex with you, but that's all; there is a person who is sincere, but you think he is not worthy of you; you You keep making excuses for your own loss, blaming others; you try and come back to square one, and nothing seems to have changed.
