are you getting bored?
hello i’m 21 years old and i have been reading yaoi since i was a 7th grader lol. Is anyone else starting to feel like they’re growing out of this phase? for me im getting deathly bored of it because ive been here for so long, and i am tired of chasing the high i once had when i first discovered this website. the storylines are boring and childish now i don’t know if its because im a grown woman or what lol
I think everyone who has read a lot of bl goes through this period. Find something new to read. Pick up gl or hetero romance. Maybe venture into something that doesn't have romance at all. Read some books or novels. After some time away, you might rediscover your love of bl.
If you're not ready to drop bl yet, here are a few that I've read recent...... 1 reply
As someone who has been reading BL since I was 14 (27 now), there have been times where I read it less (or not at all) because it didn't hit the same way. If you don't think it's giving you pleasure and enjoyment like it used to, maybe it's time to take a break and widen your horizons! reply
stop reading 'yaoi' then, like spend less time with it, its not easy but you HAVE to. you're getting deathly bored and can't seem to read another genre except BL? yeah that's a problem, your dopamine receptors are fried.
Though, I'm not proposing that you should entirely stop reading it. Some are great but it's things like this (your situation) is...... reply
Hello! 21 year old hear, started reading when i was.... far too young, much, much, younger than you. the internet was the wild west back then, eek.
But anyway, no! you arent wrong! but like with all stories and mediums, you just need to look in the right place. I used to read literally anything and everything, no matter how degenerate, not i searc...... 1 reply
If you're only reading yaoi, you'll obviously feel tired. I've been reading anything since I was a kid, and if I'm not reading, I'm writing, if I'm not writing, I'm playing, if I'm not playing, I'm doing another thing.
I don't know for you but for me, a ~decade of spending your life doing something is a commitment, a commitment that proves thay y...... 1 reply
no I agree w u
genuinely i feel like its bc majority of them have really generic plots and i feel like its getting more and more stereotypical
when there's actually a plot its interesting but ive read majority of the ones that actually have plots + good artwork
its pretty rare to find a good bl that has a unique plot i totally get u lmao reply
Honestly, as someone who has also read bl since middle school, I've also gotten bored of bl. Personally, I think that it's a good idea to start branching out to new genres. When you get read any genre over a long period of time, everything becomes incredibly repetitive as you recognize the same pattern of events and tropes used. It happened to me w...... 1 reply
21 yr old here. I started reading when I was like 11-12. It does get a bit boring at times, which is why I like to read almost any genre available. I don't just spend time reading like I used to. Sometimes I'll watch a series or anime, play games, draw, play with my pets, vc with friends, ect.
The majority of stories are pretty bland. It's always ...... 1 reply
Went through the same thing.. Did find one I like though. Paljae
you know how most yaoi are made for horny teens and it's damn sad tbh, paljae is for those with a taste for true story reply
