Reviews for Loving pain or not by Kurisutaru

I am assuming that english is not your native language. I am also assuming that this story is an experiment in writing. I think you would profit from having a beta to help you with it.
The first thing I want to point out is the line spacing: the lines are too close together and it makes reading it more difficult. I almost didn't read it for this reason. By the time you're done reading this you may wish that I hadn't persevered.
The punctuation and grammar need some work. I noticed a number of parenthetical phrases that should have been set off by commas to clarify what you were trying to communicate to your readers.
The story itself is kind of choppy, it is important to take the time to develop the characters and the storyline. In a number of places the sentences were cut off without finishing the thought. I got the impression that you were trying to get as much written as you could, writing too fast to complete your thoughts.
Next, choose a perspective to write from and stick with it: first person, third person, whatever. Jumping back and forth is too confusing to the reader. This is what led me to wonder if this was a writing experiment.
This actually has a chance of being a really good story. You've got a good premise and the beginning of an interesting plot. I would suggest that you make an outline of the story you want to write and then take it from there. I think that, with some effort, you could become a good writer, but it will require a lot of work.
Well, you wanted a review and you got it. I hope I wasn't too fierce and haven't come across as a 'simoncowell,' but I wanted to pay you the respect of being honest about this.
