There’s a cliche we’re a FL verbally discusses not wanting intimacy and the ML will do it anyways because: they’re in love, you made me this way, your body is more honest than your words— it doesn’t matter the reason but it turns me off so bad.

I know why it’s done this way, a woman who admits she wants intimacy is often seen as a threat to society as a slut or a dirty minded person. So to move the story along(sexually) we get scenes we’re the ML makes the first move and the FL denies her sexuality, because that’s how some women are in certain situations(culture/timeperiod/ect)

But I dooooont likeeeee ittttt

We have some different kinds of women who don’t do that and take charge- but authors sometimes swap the roles and we end up with “FL tops ML doesn’t want it” which is just as bad.

Any suggestions for a story where FL isn’t constantly refusing intimacy

I lost a manga!!!

It’s a ninja village, the girl had long hair that was normally in a pony tail, with one long strand lose on the side, bangs. And a stereotypical cool/silent type ML

She’s a “useless” ninja, and he’s the next village chief, they’re married, and love each other, but she doesn’t know he likes her because she’s air headed/low self esteem/bad communication. Turns out her ditzy way of living was what drew him to her, and he’s been stalking her since she was like five or something. And she him.

rice was a big theme, theres a rice kimono or something??

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE TO FIND IT???

Please I miss it ;0; and it’s not where I left it on my lists, and I checked them all.

I’d really appreciate it if you could give me either your top picks for Smutt or anything where they kiss~

I’m in a romance mood! But I can’t find anything

Why does the lead end up with the one who treated them like hot garbage?? Is it good?? Does anyone even like that irl?

I only keep reading out of hope the lead doesn’t end up with the obvious asshole. WhY

DOES ANYONE ELSE HATE THIS TYPE OF LOVE INTEREST??

    I mean it happens a lot IRL where someone will fall for the toxic people. They tend to never realize it because love is blinding and tend to ignore those who say that person is good for them. Idk if I need to say it but most manwha/manga is banking on the girls who read these things and don't think about the relationship complexly and think about how attractive they are and how dom they are.

    Stockholm syndrome is a blessing. Only reason why the girl in my basement isn’t moving or saying anything.

    Yeah, I agree with you, it's definitely not a good trope but I think I've read it so many times by now I'm kind of conditioned to it? Like, now when I come by it, it honestly barely faces me and I just keep on reading. Sometimes though, I get pleasantly surprised when I see character development or when it turns out there was some reason behind his actions. Although, of course, that all depends on the reason. If the reason is BS I get seriously disappointed. If the story is poorly written then of course the character development or whatever doesn't matter in the end. Though, I guess the reason I keep on reading these stories, even though I know the ML is a jerk, is because I truly hope for that sweet character development and love to read stories with characters starting from the bottom and crawling their way to the top and learning something.

It’s a rare find but Soft Doms? I’m a little annoyed/bored of the aggressive ML’s. I’d like a strong willed FL.

Honestly? Any cute boy who’s unexpectedly dominant would be *chef kiss* BL, Romance, Smutt. I like seeing that gap....

Plz Help!!!!! I’m dYing
