I have finally figured out why the ending is bothering me so much, well in part. It looks like Lois is going to assume Clark has turned against her, when in fact he loves her just as much, he just has no hope.
Which is why it tortures not only Clark, but also reader.
I have little hope Clark will explain everything. There is no easy way to explain his reticience to move their relationship forward too fast without telling Lois about the curse, and that requires lots and lots of explaining.
Oh, sure. There's lots of things he could say.
