Hi all, I've been searching the forums for topics on straight ukes pursuing gay semes but can only seem to find topics on the reverse.

What I'm looking for is a manga where the uke is originally straight and meets (or already knows) a gay seme who he develops feelings for and decides to pursue. I don't want the seme to immediately jump at the idea of getting into bed with the uke, I want it to be a challenge.

I'm sure I've read manga like this before, but I can't think of any examples right now. All I can recall is a manga called Geshuku Biyori - if you were to reverse the seme/uke roles in this one it would be the perfect match.

Thanks in advance~

Pick Up ....?

Thanks for the recommendation. Looking at it I seem to have given it a try before and dropped it for some reason, which is too bad.

I've been doing a bit of searching myself, mostly in the 'persistent uke' and 'uke falls in love first' categories. So far I've only found a manga called Blue Sky Complex which is really close to what I'm looking for story-wise but unfortunately it's still the gay uke straight seme theme. I really really want to find one that's the reverse.

Are you looking for something like Michiru Heya?

Ahz yeah that one is a lot closer to what I'm looking for. Sadly I've already read it, but you're on the right track. The seme in that story is gay and has other partners. He befriends the uke and intends to have a normal relationship with him but the uke (straight) starts to want them to be more than 'just friends.'
