why do people hate this book so much?

okay, i guess i can see why people would dislike it. let me go more into detail about the pros and cons:

cons:
the main character tate was a total doormat and completely allowed miles to use her for his own desires. there were multiple times when i said to myself “tate, STAND UP.” 
it was pathetic and i really hope young girls/women don’t think this is how they SHOULD be acting or the type of behavior they should put up with. miles just needs therapy, tbh.
HOWEVER! the pros are that i think this is a pretty sweet story about redemption and second chances. mainly,
miles needed to forgive himself for his past and give himself a second chance at love
. i have no problem with that, it’s just kinda unfortunate that his growth had to happen at the expense of tate.
