This is such a cute story! The top is such a huge baby!!! I love a crybaby devoted top! The omegaverse side story is sooooo good! First time I’ve see the phrase “I was in rut for you” and I’m not getting over it anytime soon.
For those saying the author could do better about promoting therapy, this is a short story with less than 20 episodes (some episodes are duplicated so there’s less than it looks like) total including 3 different side stories. I think it’s very realistic (considering this is a fictional story) that someone who hasn’t been loved before seeks out physical, and therefore more tangible, reassurance. This is the story of a lonely man who carries the guilt of thinking he could’ve done better in a past situation, finally giving himself the chance to try to care for someone again. And another man who hasn’t know love but craves it badly and finally found someone who understands his desperation to feel that warmth. Also he clearly does a lot, we see that he donates to children rights, volunteers with animals and in the side stories even takes parenting classes, and takes a mental health break, he’s learning even if it’s not talking to a therapist. If he did all that within a year what’s not to say he will try therapy at some point? The story only shows us a couple of months of their lives as a couple and about a year in an omegaverse au, so yeah. This deserves a read, don’t let some comments scare you off (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
Is this read worth it? I saw the panel of the guy hurt and I’m wondering if this read is worth it or if it’s heartbreaking?
Yes worth it. The seme does a whole 360 in personality. Cocky whore to devoted yearner. His actions are a little questionable which is why some people would argue he deserves to be hurt. Current recent chapters are at the peak of the drama (you might find it frustrating) A lot of people misinterpret the uke’s actions yet it’s very clear he does have some feelings for the seme. The sexual tension is super good.

This one is not exactly similar but the premise is because they start as a casual fuck or contract and develop feelings like the ones above.
Cunty/independent uke

My personal favorites:
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/payback_1/ (has plot and tension with possessive seme)

The seme is DOWN BAD for the uke (he’s an asshole at first though) The expressions the seme has are captivating as the story progresses.
Random recs:
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/off_track/
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/the_muse/ this one is a little boring but the romance is cute.
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/boiling_frog/ This one is a random rec too, slutty-looking uke and the seme is pursuing him. It’s teacher x student (at first) but the student is 20 yr old since he went to study abroad so he’s closer in age with the teacher.
Omg this is soooo peak!!! One of the funniest and all around feel good stories I’ve ever read. I love how many silly jokes there are while still having such a good story line and art style. I wish we could see more of the side couple, once is never enough! This is just the best and I miss them already (=・ω・=)










This is exactly what you read when you need a break from all those red flags tops. This is so cute and wholesome. Some darker parts are there but for the most part we get a lot of good and happiness
