I'm glad you enjoyed it! Ogeretsu is a pretty popular mangaka so you might've already read these, but if you haven't, I think these two have someone pretending to be something they're not:

I am looking for a manga that a boy acts like he’s weak in front of his childhood friend that is a girl and at times he gets defensive but I remember specifically about a part where she wears make up for the first time and he called her ugly but he didn’t mean it.
