self-healing

MC gets into a healthy relationship and is able to develop and love himself

ML (seme) has past trauma and scars and gets a lot of development and growth

oh boy this one is a lot to unpackage.

LAST ONE OF THE SERIES. But this couple specifically is wild although the list can also apply to the first couple in Sabita Yoru

MC (uke) was basically the antagonist of the first manga and abused his bf. He has a lot of guilt but is able to face it properly and develop thanks to ML

I feel like sex friends to lovers stories always have the most of this type of angst where they’re able to accept themselves and stuff

THIS IS THE ONE. this is the manga that made me want to start this list

i literally started this entire list JUST to put this in here because this manga awakened something within me. it gave rise to my love for this type of plot trope

I FINALLY FOUND IT. i’ve been looking for this manga forever and i found it on page 4 of the healing tag

please this is also the core reason i even made this list. i really really love this manga and it lives rent free in my head all the time. i probably think about this manga like at least once every month or two.

Both MC and ML fall in love and overcome their past loves together. Love how healthy it is and how well they develop
