Unrealistically portrayed behaviour

I was excited for the comedy part of this book and it did make me laugh out loud a few times. But that’s where the positive ends for me. There were too many unrealistic moments that just made me dislike the main characters too much. If someone i’d been looking after for over a month had a family emergency and was driving to the hospital, no way in hell would i be battling myself mentally to bring up almost kissing while they were driving and i called to give them an update ?!?!
That’s some cold hearted selfish stupidity, which just made me clash with that character too much to be able to enjoy a happy ending as the integrity of that character isn’t something id ever be able to see myself relating to. The female character droned on and on and on about dumb stuff so many times that it seriously ruined it, doubts and questioning her sanity in regards to the feeling of intense lust she was experiencing is reasonable but she kept repeating the same words over and over so many times that even skipping it multiple times landed me listening to her talking about the same freaking thing. Got old very quick.
I also hated how the female character was made to be so unprofessional, basically implying and showing her to be someone that would walk out in the middle of her job she’d fought to get and studied years for just because she was attracted to her client? I’m sorry but no professional woman would do that. It’s called professional ethics and integrity? It’s getting so old that it’s always made out that the female can’t stop thinking about the skin to skin contact, or is sooo distracted she can’t focus, or can’t speak, it’s just so annoying now. It’s not steamy, it’s not intense and hot, it’s just stupid. Please god can people get more creative and stop insulting every woman or man that works with an attractive person, it doesn’t stop you from working, there’s just visual appreciation.
