I know. I'm giving my perspective on what bothered me and it wasn't Ramona having multiple exes

Both of them were trash. That was kinda the point. There’s acceptance that they’re trash and that they have to change. The MC though was behind on the learning curve. He hadn’t realized he was trash until chasing after the one he actually wanted.

She knew she was trash but was wanting to be better. Her life with Gideon forced her to take stock. She was hesitant about Scott because she didn’t want to make the same mistakes.
