I guess with age, our taste turns weirder. I no longer dream of the prince charming on a white horse, but rather, I've set my target on the cold and indifferent villain. So here is the list of my favorite, flawed yet amazing MLs. 

This is purely subjective and please follow the list if you have the same weird taste as mine and do tell if you have other recommendations.

 The list contains:

Him/her with his/her unrequited love;

Couples who were separated for a very long time and unsure of the other person's feeling, but stayed true and loyal to his woman;

Or an ML who caused misery/grievance to his woman at first but turned st*pidly sweet after the redemption arc.

With that being said, Im into MLs with emotional issues and social barriers so you may not like them at first. I dont like perfect and very good mannered MLs, I like them flawed!

***Sorry. I'm boring so NO Yaoi, Yuri nor harem.

Recommended novels not linked to NU. Most are less than 100 chapters including extras.. (titles and synopsis in the comment section, mtl'ed but decipherable) <<less

female fighting wars 

At what age does a person have to be before his love can be justified?... more>>

the list contains an older FL/ML with atleast 3 years age gap. There is joy in age gap.

When FL is older than him, ML is usually a loyal and clingy puppy. 

Whilst,

When ML is older than her, FL is treated and pampered like a baby.

Please follow the list if you have the same weird taste as mine.

This list consists of a whole lot of amazing romance novels. There will be many genres and also have historical and modern stories mixed in here.  Descriptions will be added to novels when I have time ... more>>

Part 2- https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/58955/

Korean Romance:

Not a Ranking List. ... more>>

Just novels that I found interesting.

Mostly tragedy, but not limited to that. I like a tragedy for a good cry, not for a distressed cry. So mostly these novels aren't full of abuse just to make you cry. You will cry because you feel for the characters. 

There are fluffs and diabetes here, but like I said, mostly tragedy. 

Please read the Genre and Tags of the novel before plunging yourself into this hellhole. 

My tendencies are to seek novels in which: the CP Happy Ending is when they are together <in death>, the CP Happy Ending is when they are together <in life>, the CP is supportive of each other, or the CP building is interesting.

Have a good cry reading these novels! <<less

novel i finished reading and loved it, sometimes i'll reread it again and again. mostly happy ending (my life already not easy so there's no... more>> need to add angst)  ^^
FYI, for some uncomplete translated novel, i read it via MTL. just copy paste the chineese title on google than add shubaow or imiaobige in it <<less

Pretty covers regardless of its contents (part3)... more>>

And also how I got scammed into reading some boring stuff because I got hooked by their beautiful exterior. But sometimes beautiful exterior does reflect what’s inside 

Still adding some pretty covers with good content and also adding my sad conned novel reading experience  <<less

Raise a hand if you recognize: A sweet/wild/sexy/dangerous/smart/lively/pure Chinese girl meets an overbearing boss/actor/CEO/prince/cultivator/general/demon/'god' of any field, and he falls in love with her. As soon as they have any sort of relationship, the girl becomes a pretty prop, while the guy is the one doing/deciding everything. Male friends? Forbidden! Going somewhere alone? Forbidden! Doing something slightly dangerous? Forbidden! Oh, she talked to a handsome male? She must be punished. In bed.... more>>

This list has none of it. Both characters have their own problems, their own goals and their own free will. Even when one has to depend on another, it's because they want it, not because it was forced on them.

Comment if you have novels to recommend for this list or if you think that there are novels on this list shouldn't be here. I will check every novel before adding. <<less

We all know that some novels when MTL'ed can kill a few of your brain cells,  but here are some that I'll willingly sacrifice them... more>> for.   <<less

LINK to part 2 since this list is filled up- https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/60592/ <<less

Created this list to keep track of my favorite completed novels that I've read.  Some of these I like a lot more than others, but I'm too lazy to split them into multiple lists.  If anyone else finds it useful, then that's an added bonus :) - fair warning, a lot of these novels follow similar, if not the same, cliches and tropes, but that's what I like to read. *shrug*... more>>

Also, all have happy endings.  I hate reading a really good novel only to have it ruined with a depressing ending.

Some of these novels are not showing as complete on NU, but are completed elsewhere, so I'm including them.

I'll add notes/comments as I feel like it - some notes are just key points/words to remind me which novel it is.

I'm going to add any other novels I really love, but aren't on NU in the comments for tracking purposes.

BL novels listed separately.

Smut with plot also listed separately now - this is not saying that there is no smut/NSFW in the novels on this list, just moved any novels where smut seemed to be the main focus.

Also moved some to a new list for novels that I did enjoy reading, but probably won't read again (just to keep track of what I've read without adding to this list).  So I guess "favorite" = "worth rereading"

Just started Part 2 of this list - may sort them by genre or something later: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/87122/?ft=yes <<less

A list for whenever I get tired of ever so gentle, proper and harmless FLs.

My Favorite Chinese Historical  Novels which I've finished or I am currently reading part 2 >.< This list consists of both BL and Straight novels with... more>> a rating above 4.0~ <<less

I was tired of reading stories about tyrant ceo's , their actions irked me ; not to mention the hypocritical FL's who magically fell in love with their abusers but still shamelessly promote being a strong woman . So I created a list of MC's that don't irk me . The ML's are cute sweethearts , they might be a bit stereotypical in the beginning but you would know why I call them sweethearts soon and most Importantly the FL's ARE THE PROACTIVE ONE'S IN THESE NOVELS . ... more>>

Mostly completed novels because cliffhanger in angst wont ever let me live my life in peace... more>>

Tw: Many of these novels may contain mention of self harm, depression, bullying, abuse, r*pe and su*cide. So, please please read reviews and tags properly before picking up a novel.  <<less

BG romance, No-sad-ending club :D... more>>

I mostly included stories that the translations are either completed or half-finished (so it's easier for you to mtled it), this list contains romance stories that'll entertain you, I finished all of the stories whether by MTL-ing or reading a proper translation, so if you want to ask me some questions, I'll always welcome it. HAPPY READING FAMSS <<less

Ended up falling by mistake into the world of cultivation's cauldron. Didn't gain any superpowers sadly, just a good old mundane high from it. Particularly for cultivation novels with a female MC. Looking for more.... more>>

This is just a list to track down my to-be-read as well as likes and dislikes a.k.a my personal library. Recommendations are welcome!

Novels with non-humans. Will include mostly fluffy novels, mostly HE and some tragedy. In addition to a non-human characters, this includes novels where mc was previously a non-human and then becomes human, characters with shape-shifter ability, or just novels with pets.... more>>

- includes ghosts, spirits, gods, vampires, and werewolves, pillows, and other humanoid/non-human characters, etc. 

-this list will not include any orc/beast tribe harem novels (will only include 1v1); nor does this list include system- human relationships (eg. “don’t pick up boyfriends from tr*sh”) or non-human relationships from thriller, horror novels like “thriller trainee” or “I rely on poverty to sweep through survival games” <<less

Gradual development of chemistry between MC and ML. Not rushed, no bland characters. Sweet, fluff and interesting. NO LOVE TRIANGLES. Like really fed up of plots were FL catches attention of ML and without rhyme or reason he is attracted to FL INSTANTLY.... more>>

 Basically typical rebirth/transmigrated  type of protagonist betrayed by her lover and stepped upon by her half sisters seeking out for revenge and catching the attention of 7th or 9th cold aloof general like prince are filtered out from this list. Like the thing is 'revenge' is more in light than romance part which is rather bland. <<less
