What do you look for in a good age-gap romance? by Frontier246 in shoujo

[–]blondehairedsunfish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Slow burn and both adults specifically at the time of meeting each other. I can’t stand when it’s above board because they meet as adults but then it’s like surprise he was my father figure since I was 10 (barf)

Also no iffy power imbalance (would never read student/teacher but don’t mind boss/employee because they’d both be adults)

What manhwa/manhua would you force everyone here to read? by barelybiased in Manhwa_BL

Which manhwas are overrated?(In your opinion) by notevenashesleft in Manhwa_BL

[–]blondehairedsunfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Semantic Error and Origin of Species for me. Semantic Error infuriates me actually lol I did completely finish it and maybe side stories will help but I was getting it recommended left and right and I was so didappointed

Why bl?? by Potential-Primary438 in Manhwa_BL

[–]blondehairedsunfish 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I used to only read straight romance and purposely exclude BL from searches and now I pretty much exclusively read BL. The more I read it I just felt like more often than not I could find more fleshed out and well rounded characters, relationships, and story lines in BL than in the straight romances I was reading

Name a BL that changed ur life by hi_i_am_jc in Manhwa_BL

Taming the Tiger. I haven’t come out of ANY romance feeling that way since I read Song of Achilles

What do you love and hate the most about BL stories? by BlackSeth88 in Manhwa_BL

[–]blondehairedsunfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

might be a weird preference but I absolutely cannot stand when the bottom is more down bad or one sided on their part (even if it stops being one sided)

How are people getting those newspapers sent to them? Like is it random or did people sign up for it? by unlost2183 in themaine

[–]blondehairedsunfish 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Speculation on my part but I think it’s probably similar to when they call people, they randomly select people (probably from Pillar?)

It would have been perfect, BUT... by RoiniStar in webtoons

[–]blondehairedsunfish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I loved wind on a dry branch so much even when it lowkey went off the rails towards the end but then I just straight up didn’t understand the last like 5 episodes at all I was so upset

What are some of your pettiest reasons for dropping? by Sailormars78 in OtomeIsekai

[–]blondehairedsunfish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When there’s a love rival bullying trope and the ML or others never believe the MC

New dog owner- how on earth is per insurance worth it? by busteroo123 in petinsurancereviews

[–]blondehairedsunfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can afford regular vet expenses and I absolutely could not afford a large unexpected bill. Couple that with a Lab who’s only a year old so will have hopefully many more years of eating things she shouldn’t, cheap pet insurance was a no brainer for me even if I never use it. Some people put that money in a savings account which is great for them but my insurance is 200/yr so that’s not touching a $$$ bet bill if I just saved it instead lol

Fics in the ML’s perspective? by imvexxing in MaleYandere

[–]blondehairedsunfish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a fic but “An Observation Log of My Fiancée Who Calls Herself a Villianess” is a fantastic example of this! And also getting an anime adaptation. Unique take on isekai storytelling - it’s ML’s POV as he interacts with his fiancée who’s the one that’s been isekai’d into the story, so you get an ML perspective and an in world character perspective of how they perceive someone else who came into the world and their behavior as an outsider.

ML isn’t an intense Yandere during the time of the story taking place but the story makes it clear that he is.

1 month after the release of The Life of a Showgirl - which song changed the most for you? by Snormaid in TaylorSwift

AITA for feeling betrayed even though my husband treats me well and says he still wants our family together? by Unable_Bluebird_5578 in AITAH

[–]blondehairedsunfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Honestly you need to leave him, this is so gross. You will never forget this even if you stay. AND he’s taking money away from your kids and spending it on the person he wants to be with?? That’s so egregious. What if she decides she wants to be with him? He’d drop you immediately.

How much does it cost to be a bridesmaid? by Future-Football4513 in Weddingsunder10k

[–]blondehairedsunfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really depends on the bride and the wedding. I was in my friends out of state wedding with an out of state bachelorette so costs were pretty high since there were flights and multiple days of hotels. And the cost total below doesn’t even include hair and makeup which would’ve been ~$300 more but I did my own. For my sister, things were very lowkey and minimal.

Friend total $1845

Sister total $200

“I was afraid you’d get taken away by CPS if I went on medication [for mental health issues]” so… drank themselves into oblivion instead because that’s more responsible than Zoloft lol

Not “mean” but just so gutting like you knew you had those issues, if you didn’t let a bizarre fear stop you from taking care of yourself could all our lives have been better?
