Genre(s): Shounen Ai / Webtoons

(kinda?) ML is extremely traumatized. He likes teasing and bullying MC because it helps him get distracted form his fucked up mind. He absolutely hates how he was mean to MC and hates himself for being a loser who can't be an ideal boyfriend. Even he is confused why MC would even spare him a glance. The first 5 pages were torture tho.

(father, not the ML)
The father locked up his emotions after his wife died so that means he has to abuse the daughter now. He legit threatens to murder MC multiple times over small stuff and he still thinks he's a good father. Apparently, the wife chewed him up from the afterlife but it feels cheap that we don't get to see it.

The single best regret novel. I'm not going to spoil anything at all. Just know that ML goes trough ABSOLUTE HELL, worse than you can imagine, you wouldn't wish his fate on your enemies, that's how much he suffers and the cherry on top? MC watches it all from his throne while eating popcorn and says ''boo lame, suffer more'' while ML is throwing up blood. ML becomes a soulless husk of his former self and it hurts so good

The Substitute Relationship

Ongoing
Author(s): 咸鱼大西瓜,猫仆工作室
Genre(s): Shounen Ai Webtoons


ML uses MC as a substitute for the guy he loves, MC ''dies'' in an accident and ML acts all edgy and uninterested while he's losing it by the second. MC comes back as a ''lookalike'' and ML does the same thing that drove MC away, He starts using the new MC as a substitute for his ''dead lover''. MC does not care about ML's suffering at all. It great seeing ML taste his own medicine, aka the cold shoulder.

Does anyone know the name or link of one specific BL Substitute story I am trying to find. Essentially the uke is being treated as a substitute by the ML and is humiliated by the ML's peers. One time he even meets his biological parents and brother who do not recognize him as they though he died or went missing when he was a baby. His parents and brother immensely miss him and have no idea the same guy who is being humiliated and mistreated is their son.

I would appreciate your help as it's been a while and I don't think I saved it which I really regret. I know there is a novel, but so far I haven't been able to find it in any specific list. I am putting it on any list similar to the theme so I can find it. Thanks.

I came here with all the seriousness of a reader who wanted to read a story where ML groveling at MC's feet. So I read through your plot descriptions with a serious visage, all crumbled after the phrase ''what a silly baka'' you should heard how LOUD I CHOKED!!
Your description made my day, I think I already satisfied with reading your quirky n definitely helpful plot descriptions without actually check out the story.

Please continue (≧∀≦)(づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ

"twisted fucking cycle path" i love your snark lmfao. pretty good regretful bastard list, some of my faves are on here. i had to comment about "sono suki honto" tho, i absolutely love the relationship there and imo it has a great resolution. please please reread it, it also has a side character who keeps reminding the ML about his fuck-up and it kills me every time
