Wtf man. Just saw this on instagram and have a few things to say about it:
1. Luis was confirmed to be bisexual right??? Just so we're on the same page here. That (for him) includes loving women (remember Miro?). By implying that he's a "real" part of the lgbtq+ community only when he's in a romantic or sexual relationship with a man, you're actively feeding into the homophobic and misogynistic rhetoric that bisexual people need to "prove" their queerness to be accepted into the community, and that being in a relationship with a woman somehow makes a bi man "less gay"/"more straight".
2. You "only want to see LuMo"? So you're saying, Luis' and Moritz' stories are only valuable to you as long as they're in a monogamous relationship together?? I want to remind you that you're watching a soap opera, a genre infamous for having love triangles and unstable relationships at all times to make the show more interesting at any point. If you want to have a m/m storyline with a stable relationship, you're quite frankly watching the wrong genre.
I'm not saying that you can't or shouldn't be mad at how the show is handling Luis' and Moritz' storyline right now, but man. Take it easy. It's not the end of the world. It's a daily soap. They'll probably get together again anyway. The writers are just putting in some tension right now bc Luis and Moritz had no actual struggles for almost a year since that whole thing with Miro. Naturally, they had to do something to cause major conflict between them. Did they do it in the most unproblematic and well-thought-out way ever? No, definitely not. But that, as well, is not the point of a soap opera.
Know what genre you're watching.
