Shitty MLs/Families regret (Shoujo)

I love reading egoist MLs suffer when the FL moves on from loving them, apologising & regretting. 

Ratings /10 on how satisfying the angst is:

》9 - 10: Will make you both angry+satisfied.
》6 - 8: Good, but doesn't DELIVER angst
》4 - 5: Disappointing. Scum didn't suffer enough.
》1 - 3: Cancerous material. Will lose brain cells.

Added really good "haha suffer more you piece of shit" novels with novelupdate links. Highly recommend u read them.

3 OgMLs treat Ogvillainess badly bc theyre crazy in love with a maid. OgVillainess got tired, made a wish to disappear. FL transmigrates into her body instead. FL is not like typical FLs tryna strive to fit into the new world, she hates everything & wants to go back.

All the fxkers start obsessing over FL bc of *how she changed*. Prince cries when he realised OgVillainess, only one who loved him, is gone forever bc she was depressed and chose suicide. He contributed to it.

Powerful mage can't die til she defeats the dragon. She thought she did a double K.O. in her last battle, but turns out dragon's still alive & her body's dead.

A Contractual Couple Again

Genre(s): Webtoons / Josei / Drama / Romance

I usually side w FL in plots like these but FL is dumb af here. FL and ML got into marriage for money, then divorced. But bc ML's gran, they have to get back into a contractual marriage. Theres no trust or communication btwn them. I only pity the child who grew up without a dad bc of a misunderstanding bc their parents WONT JUST TALK TO EACH OTHER.

ML said a lot of hurtful shit and regrets it afterwards but tbh i'd have said the same shit he said with how FL was acting.

Ongoing
Author(s): Choi nokki
Genre(s): Webtoons / Shoujo / Fantasy

ML wants all brides to choose between him and treason, will carry out a "test" which involves emotionally manipulating and kidnapping to get to know their "true thoughts".

Then the whole mansion gaslights FL into thinking this is normal because there were 98 other ppl who went thru this.

1/10 The story wants to portray ML as romantic but hes a dick, and FL as badass, but she's a complete pushover.

Holytomato January 17, 2024 2:05 am

The vulgar words to describe how the fl rejects the ml's repentance is so cute AHAHHAAHAB

Yam September 21, 2023 10:06 am

Re: For my abandoned love
(Cuz I've received 2 messages saying I should rate them higher)

It's a 6 or 7 max for me. (But again, it's my opinion, and if you disagree that's fine, move on.)

There's not much angst involved when FL was already willing to forgive ML's initial neglect bc she liked him so much, he's her bias. There's guilt from his part, and then a slow slide intp romance, but never a crawling for forgiveness, which is all what regret and this list is about.

This list here is for *angrii* and *yess crawl more bitch*, neither of which the manhwa successfully provided.

The ratings are solely based on angst and satisfaction from seeing regret, not how good the story plot is, which I've explained in my descriptions. Please read the description b4 slandering :(((

Uke Generator March 6, 2024 2:16 pm

I agree! The most satisfying stories are where the ML is begging forgiveness and the FL MAKES THEM EARN IT

Kuru-Chan September 21, 2023 9:35 am

Bro For my Abandoned Love deserves an 8+/10 rating, 5/10 be wildin, can't trust whoever created this list

POP-NI August 30, 2023 10:30 pm

Omg I love how similar we rate things! I was trying to look for something new to read but sometimes ppl rate stories I love badly but I read your description in stories I loved and it’s like I’m reading my own! I love when I have similar opinions to others bcs it feels good to see others think the same! ^_^

Yam September 5, 2023 8:27 am

Most ppl find angst frustrating so they rate it bad ahahha. For me personally, the angrier it makes me, and the better the begging scenes get, the higher the ratings go (=・ω・=) i will never know if im a masochist who likes to suffer or sadist who likes to see shitty MLs suffer
