Sayu and her mother were indeed pretty similar: Both barely could see anything beyond their own limited view, and dealt with problems by running away. Sayu did the running physically, while the mother did it by treating Sayu almost like a stranger she has to look after to maintain her public image, but that's all.

I'm glad I managed to finish this show, I drop too many series these days, but honestly I didn't really feel anything towards the end.

Yeah, Sayu worked really hard to groom the dude, never letting his constant rejections to make her give up. It does seem like she succeeded.
