And now she has become "emotionally void" and has closed her heart off to others around her. She has developed a bad outlook on life, thinking the world is "dirty" and her day to day life is boring or pointless. But then someone enters her life, preferably the male interest, and shows her the better side of life. But i dont want it to be pure cheesey, and having her fall in love with him from the moment she meets him, and suddenely everythings grand again.. the only examples i could think of were: Suki-tte Ii na yo and Life Thanking you for your help!! =) ________________ ~Be Bold, and Mighty Forces Will Come to Your Aid~ "I loved you so I drew these tides of men into my hands, and wrote my will across the sky in stars" - T.

But i definately second Bitter Virgin you can also try: Hana no Namae devasteted because of loss of parents Sugar Dark the physical pain is high enough to damage her emotionally Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge lost will to live because she was only born to be killed ________________ in need of romance? uncommon, sad, sweet

And on a comedic sense skip beat the mf completely loses all sense of love and goes all psuedo-evil, and sees the worst in everything for quite a while, great read xD ________________ Few favs Comedy: Kyou kara ore wa!!, Mx0, Angel Densetsu, Skip Beat, Ai Kora, The Devil King is Bored Romance: Hana to Akuma, No bra, Shinigami Trilogy, kindan no koi de ikou, Usagi Drop, Threads of Time, Girl Friends Most under rated: Kindan no koi de ikou, kyou kara ore wa!. m0r l83r... maybe >_>
