-BE or HE is fine but there must be obstacles in the middle....in short, angst

-ML doesn't care about the MC from the start (or ML does care but doesn't know how to express it) but once MC is gone from their grasp (death/ coma/ near-death experience/ breakup?) they finally realize what they let slip from their fingertips. 

-or after all the disappointment and hurt, MC doesn't care anymore and it's the emotionally constipated ML's turn to chase.

Hello!!! ... more>>

Here are some novels were the MC or ML have:

-Terminal illness 

-Have some health problems

-Mental illness 

-Use to have problems

*If there is a novel in here that doesn’t go with this list I might have put it in here by mistake or someone recommend me something that doesn’t belong here, so you can always write a comment about it or sent me a message about the error I made*

If you know of more novels like this please do comment below and I will add it on the list :D <<less

Do you ever wake up from an unknown dream, crying into your pillow? No? Do you want to?... more>>

If you find yourself in need of a good cry, or you enjoy the feeling of a lump in your throat, or maybe you’re just a masochist. I don’t know. I don’t judge.

Anyways these are the crême de la crême of novels to make you cry, or just feel plain awful. Some of them have an uplifting tone at the end, but most of them... most of them just leave you despairing and inconsolable. It’s awful, and yet we keep coming back to it, hm?

Enjoy. Or don’t. Whatever you feel like doing, yeah? <<less

The title explain itself.This is for those who love to cry over fictional character because they have nothing better to do.

ml's who are ill/disabled- mentally or physically... more>>

both bl and bg <<less

Where the MC is sick terminally or chronically. 

Instead of OP CEO or arrogant and domineering ML, these precious MLs need coaxing and feel inferior to the MC (or vice versa in some cases). EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE SO PRECIOUS AND DESERVE THE WORLD!! Most of them are insecure and afraid their partner will leave or no longer like them due to their flaws/illness/background/past/etc. There is a lot of pampering, coaxing, understanding, and healing in these beautiful stories. I've tried to put similar setting/vibe stories together so the list is easier to navigate. BG in the first half and BL in the second half :)... more>>

Recently I've seen more recommendation lists on this trope and I'm SOOO HAPPY that these beautiful stories are finally getting some appreciation!! I'll do my best to also find some less popular gems for you all to read >.< Please also comment any stories you would like me to add!

*also, I know I sorta write more for some novels, less for others. It honestly depends on my mood & memory of the novel. So don't feel discouraged about the ones I write less on, they're all well written books :) I also try to only include novels that are 4 stars and above, unless I REALLY think that the story deserves wayyyy more. <<less

Perfect for us masochistic fools who just wants to experience pain 'cause thus is living *sigh*

...but I still keep reading stories that end in tragedies! T-T ... more>>

Tragedies do not always have a sad ending or bad ending. But they are always very distressing.

I don't particularly like it when the protagonist struggled so hard to overcome so many obstacles and his (or her) end is unnecessary or undeserved tragic death. (Ooooh, if a main character dies, he (or she) must die with all the glory.)

I deal with terminal illnesses well, as they are always moving stories. T-T

Oooh, pitiful love stories and regrets... When they are a very moving story, they are just worth reading.

(Spoilers, spoilers are always welcome to calm anxiety. -_-) <<less

Angst, sad, depressing, tear jerking, heartbreaking, read in the middle of the night with a box of tissues next to you novels. (asterisk if i... more>> cried) <<less
