I''m looking for something similar to the following:
-Otomen
-Kare Kano (LOVE.)
-Lovely Complex
-W-Juliet
-Mousou Shoujo Otakukei
-Saruyama
-Nodame Cantabile
-Power!
-Kisu yori mo Hayaku
-Koukou Debut
-Love Attack
-Fujoshi Kanojo
-Crossroad (kinda sorta counts. I mean she has one guy on her mind the whole time. plus he's with a girl so it balances out.)
-Toradora! (yes it counts. look up the meaning of the title.)
-Karin
-Midori Days
-Yoru Made Matenai
-Mars
-Itadakimasu (dont bother recommending other works from her because chances are I read it already)
-The Wallflower
Now I'm sure you are wondering what this means. They are all different. But with one thing in common: There is no long ongoing love triangle and you know eventually the two main characters will end up together. Thats basically it.
A romance with two people. It can be funny or dramatic. It can have other couples. As long as there is no threesome crap. It can have smut as well. But it cannot have rape=love bullcrap. The girl needs to be a little aggressive. *points to Yoshihara Yuki's manga*
As long as it is nothing and I mean nothing like Peach Girl, Vampire Knight, Hana Yori Dango, Fruits Basket, Kitchen Princess, Moe Kare!!, or any other love triangle or Harem manga/anime. I cant stand them and wont go into it now because it will not only turn into a rant but insult some people and popular series.
I'd prefer it complete or at least with decent amount of volumes already out.
Thanks. If for some reason this gets locked and someone stumbles on this topic and has a good manga then pm me or something.
Oh and I accept yuri/shoujo ai. I liked Girl Friends. Dont know much else. Shounen ai is ok too. No yaoi. Chances are its terrible. I'm close to done with this genre.

The Italics and "hynh huh" faces are HIGHLY recommended.

Eensy-Weensy Monster - so cute! same mangaka as Kare Kano
Hana Kimi - possibly? I mean, Nakatsu never really has a chance
Anti-Gravity Boy - no triangle that I remember
I second H3 School, Tsuki no Shippo, Othello, and MeruPuri.

Did you read the manga/ It has a love triangle, but it's not all that bad... Not like most Shoujos.
Really.. It's almost not even really there. Unless your talking about:
Spoiler (highlight to view)
Suzuka and her dead sempai? If so then yeah it's pretty bad triangle there.

This one has a bad triangle, even if it's only one sided until the end.

Lots of nice choices here to choose from. Thanks alot everyone. I'll look into them. I copied alot of them down so I can check em out later.
And I dont really mind love triangles. If its done like in Toradora (only saw the anime) or Crossroad. Theres more then three people involved and by the end of it I didnt hate any of them. It didnt really feel too tense if that makes any sense.
I just dont like the ones where they take over the entire manga and could be resolved if someone would just open their mouth. Like Peach Girl for example.

The entire manga the girl goes back and forth constantly to the very last chapter. It makes it hard to enjoy the story when these two people have to get heartbroken because the indecisive and selfish main character cant make up their mind. She should have at least talked to Kairi before rushing off with Toji and Kairi should have opened his mouth and said the truth. But because they both dont and dance around the issue Toji gets hurt at the end. He wasnt my favorite character but he went through alot of hell because of Sae, Momo, and Kairi.

If you are OK with historical and one-shots, I think I should add:
Koitsukiyo no Himegoto
Sonezaki Shinjuu
