Amen, sister! Same here!

I flirted with him before (because I have soft point for bosses), but the more I know him, the more I feel "thanks, but no, thanks". So I restarted the book.

In real world, if you romance your boss... Most bosses are married. Most of them won't divorce for a mere bratty girl/boy. Most of them don't want complications like pregnancy nor gossips. Most bosses want safe, stable, convenient and illegitimate affair without consequences. They never would see you as an equal, despite the degree of intimacy you are sharing - they are bosses even in bed, unless they order otherwise. Your boss is allowed to have other lovers. Your boss can dump you in a second if they want. And you can't pay them in the same way, if you don't want to jeopardize your work... And it's a huge mental strain, because you must live in constant lying and hiding like a criminal, often with huge guilt trip for your boss' spouse. It's not life for everyone.

What I mean... Most bosses are stable and safe, and they mostly know what they want (fresh fruits and flowers before they wilt), and they don't hesitate to take it.

Ethan... isn't safe nor stable. He has no wife nor children (he claims that he doesn't want, but what if he suddenly demands it from me?), I didn't sleep with him, so I don't know whether he cares about safe sex. And since he couldn't cure Dr. Banerji, he doesn't have even stable job. He isn't enough discreet, so if you romance him, everyone knows or suspects (Naveen, Harper, Sienna).

He's also rude, hotheaded, unjust, irresponsible, manipulative, insincere (not only to MC, but also to himself). Despite being abusive, he's actually weak and vulnerable. And, what is most important, he's unprofessional in many ways - that's why he doesn't blame MC for unprofessional deed of mercy.

That's why I don't want to be involved with him. He's completely unpredictable both as boss and as a man.
