    what is the worst romantic relationship in a novel that you have read...?
    So far.. I remember in the earlier chapters of IRASS , i read Bout how the MC confessed to his boss , and she was like . Ok let's do it . And so they are in a relationship, but the mc dont act like he is in a relationship with her , it's more liike he is viewing her as a andult who he should reapect while he's just behaving like a kid!!!
    -When he's is sleeping over at her house thy sleep separately
    -He can't even bring himself into kissing her while she's awake !(he kissed her when she's sleeping "__")
    He had a bath with her , he didn't do anything and she did nothing to (like she's bathing with a kid) Except he Got a boner !!
    -He don't tell her some flirting and sweet words he even ask permission when he want to hold her hand ...!

    Well i see this relationship so far as a relationship between an adult And child !!!
    But it does make me laugh actually how the mood is set up in this relationship...



    So tell us what's the worst romantic relationship you read about so far...!

    I didn't like Nie Li and Ye Ziyun in Tales of Demons and Gods. I preferred Xiao Ning`er~

    Most CN xianxia/xuanhuan novels. Those Damn Romance is a lie, it's only a Plot Device to show how Awesome the MC is, the same with the Harem.

    well, they give up later anyway, so all is well anyway...

    Worst romantic novel to me is a novel where you force a romantic series in a harem genre...

    I Strongly disagree with what u say about the IRAS romance , the romance as of the part where i am at is one of the best i have ever seen in a CN. You cant except for a full blown romance in the early chapters for modern fantasy with no harem. As an OTP zhang ye and wu zeqing really does well

    You've described every household parent relationship.

    The mother is the Boss, the father is the lackey.

    All of IET mc's love interest seems to be some sort stepping stone and their drive. Although we rarely see them having romantic scene bar few occasions, like linley and alice. Their love interest somewhat need to be revived and brought back to their side, that's extremely infuriating. Personally I love MC that grow because they lose someone close i.e. wife, kids and family member to them, and didn't have chance to revive them later in the story. I get that you wanted to show MC kindness and personality, but it just so so so frustrating it became so cliche in IET novels. Sometimes it's better to let go and move on.

    And XN and XT from Still wait for me, damn it make me mad. XT obsession to XN is just so sickening, I get it XT have the second chance because of his regret over XN. But to actually stalk her and interact with her is sick, just wait few more years until he pass the legal age I will support you. And his kindness to other women is not healthy, I am reading to much story where the MC is just too kind to their opposite gender and then their relationship get messed up. But how he entangled himself deep into Apple heart and then forcefully distanced himself make me mad real good. I just hope XN leave XT, and he fell into depression. #teamApple

    Mhmm as I've read so far the setting of the relationship seems forced... and didn't follow the steps that a true love and romantic relationship must have ....
    and reading about this relationship in irss don't let the reader imagine any further possibilities And things that may happens between them...: )

    They were great though. I hate Red Packet Server's relationships. The MC picks up a lover, buys them a house, and then forgets about them -_-

    No idea why he ever fell for her, or she for him for that matter.

    i dont like the Mc of 'My life'. He is too timid and even though girls give him the looks, he acts too pathetic and never makes the move. Seriously, i hate 'My life'.
