Why would she do that - because she likes Maya and understands that she might lose her.
Do you know what a great way to lose the person you like? Disappearing without a trace and then showing up years later with a kid just because the kid's dad died and now you need someone to help you.
Yeah, maybe her motifs are/were not the romantic ones.
Michiru has not done a damn thing to make up for that level of betrayal. You really can't even say that she truly loves Maya, Maya's point of view that Michiru is just moving from one solid foundation to another is completely backed up with what we have seen. Even Michiru becoming more independent work wise resulted in her relying on Maya more and more dealing with her kid. If someone more suitable with taking care of a kid shows up then why would Michiru stay with Maya instead? She has already shown that she can leave without a care, nothing has shown that she won't do that again when opportunity strikes.
True, the trust between them is gone. And I'm not making any excuses for Michiru. I'm just saying that i think she is well written, even though some might hate her for what she has done.
Personally I think she cared, that's why she left. She was just being immature and she couldn't handle it. She lacks basic human interaction (she just runs every time), even her kid knows better how to behave.
Actually, I think the guy who likes her will probably be used to prove that she has changed and that Maya can rely on her or will be able to do so in the future. But maybe not, we'll see.
I guess I wouldn't have the patience to deal with someone like her either. it's just nice to see her evolve. Personally after disappearing I couldn't trust her either, though. But people and feelings can be strange...
Even if Maya doesn't love the guy, at least he loves her enough to give her what she wants even if that means not being with him. Michiru doesn't even come close to that. Maya needs to find someone else because Michiru is nothing but trouble.
Yeah, maybe... but not as bad as can be, at least in my opinion.
