I feel emotionally drained from reading so many stories lately with this depressing plot where MC has a tragic past and nothing ever goes his way then he meets some powerful ML (supernatural kind of powerful or thr usual asshole cruel CEO) and MC suffers even more ...it's like some authors took the complaint about Cinderella plots (poor MC x rich powerful ML) too seriously and were like "I heard you hate love stories between poor MC and rich ML so how about we keep the same dynamic but remove "love" from it and just make it torture and toxicity.....you can't complain then".
