Main character is Seme

Like I asked for in the title, I'm looking for yaoi/shounen-ai (doesn't matter how hardcore it is) where the main character is the seme. Or at least a dominant uke.
Basically I want a manga where the main character isn't pushed around and is the initiator of the relationship. I realize there's a thread about "Tough cool headed ukes", but that's not exactly what I'm looking for.
Example:
Maniakku ni Aishite
Edit:
I've found more examples. Turns out a bunch of "cool ukes" in that other thread aren't always main characters. Coz the manga are aimed at women and women aren't allowed to be awesome. (Pisses me off!) But the seme in these particular manga aren't bad.
Ano Kado wo Magatta Tokoro
On a sidenote, I was wondering if anyone knows this manga. It's about a highschool boy who does some sort of martial arts with his friend. And then one day he finds out that his mom might have been the "Goddess of Luck" and may have passed her powers on to him. He's in love with his childhood friend and so plans to use it as a sort of bribe to get the guy to go out with him. What is the title?
Edit # 2:
Found the manga. I'm just too awesome. It's called Bokutachi wa Asu ni Mukatte Ikiru Noda.
For some reason, it's no longer on mangafox. Why are there several views on this topic but still no posts? At least say hello. Or talk about your opinion on the kind of yaoi I'm looking for. :\ It makes me feel lonely.

Try Yume ni Tobu Tori. NAONO Bohra works with non conventional pairings, older man with younger man, tall ukes, agressive ukes... it worths the reading.

Interesting topic, the most of the time the whole point of the story is from the "weaker" perspective XD.
what about Renai Shinan!? Give some feedback so I can think about more...there is a huge list in my head but I always forget the ones I need at the moment!. I'll keep your thread in mind for when I remember more.

😀 Signal is a nice one but I prefer Arashi no ato, I almost forgot how good this one was! and from the seme perspective.
Maybe The cornered mouse dreams of cheese?
Koi suru boukun (the seme here is cuter than the uke and more childish)

I read this and I like it. 🙂 The main character is definitely self-assured, not a desperate whiny little shell of a human being. It's not exactly what I was looking for, since the main character is still an uke. But I appreciate manga where both characters are equal in a relationship.

Well..I know a lot of those...I am just trying to remember those that you are asking for (from seme's point of view) kind of hard! I just realized another stereotype thanks to your thread.!
You can check chapter 3 and 5 of Akanai Tobira for that thing about the point of view.
If you want equally standing relationships just PM me to talk better about what you are looking for, although I there is a thread about that here, I posted a long list there XD. But now you got me hunting for the seme's point of view.
Btw, any work by Sadahiro Mika has MEN on it, equally standing also. The thing is that her stories are more smut than an actual story (not that is bad)

Oh, I've found some sillier manga that fit what I'm looking for by mangaka Araya Miki.
-Violence na Kimi ga Suki
-Geboku ni Nari Masu
The main characters in both these manga are definitely the semes. Of course, the men are ridiculous and silly, but they still make an entertaining read.
Edit:
More manga!!
-Renai Junkie (and a few other stories by Tohjo Asami)
I'm sorry I don't know how to use those link thingies. D: You guys will be fine without em, anyway.

Ake Nure Goyou ni Furu Yuki wa maybe...although I haven't finished it I think it is pretty obvious who the uke is going to be..unless it is a huge surprise (I doubt that)

Equal standing? How about Haru wo Daite Ita ? I really recommend that one! I really love it, it's one of my favorites ^^ I think the story is great and the artwork gets better and better 'cause its along manga. But you should really try it ^^
