Boy falling for genderbending girl

I've been skimming alot of genderbending manga/manhwas to find genderbenders where a boy falls in love with/is attracted to a girl dressed as a boy, while she is in disguise. And then questions his sexuality.
Examples of this can be found in;
He dedicated to roses
Boy of the female wolf
Click
1/2 Prince
HanaKimi
Penguin Revolution
1st shop of Coffee Prince (kdrama)
Does anyone know any others? I've gotten a bit obsessed with this particular quirk in this genre, but I simply don't have the time to read every genderbending story out there just to see if it shows up somewhere in the storyline ๐

You could also check out Nononono, although there isn't just one guy falling for the protoganist... I'll definnetly recommend it

Thank you for your suggestions. I've read Nononono, but the only ones who's fallen for Nono/Yuuya is a gay-rapist-classmate (and I don't really count that) and also a girl (who made him his 'slave'). I do like the series a lot, though. I've read GGG and K2 as well.
I read a few volumes of Legend of Nereid, but as far as I can tell, anyone with the potential to fall for the heroine has already figured out her gender. Am I missing something?
What's the 'sort of' in Charisma Doll, smiling-face? ๐คฃ
I repeat, what I'm looking for isn't a genderbender, it's a genderbender where a guy falls for the disguised girl, despite thinking that she's a guy.

Savage Garden--pretty serious stuff here so if you are looking for some comedy then avoid, three boys fall for the girl who is crossdressing and pretending to be someone else at a noble boys school due to reasons. One of the three boys is bisexual and doesn't really question his sexuality, the other is getting confused about how this supposed dude looks like a girl, and then there is the last one who so far doesn't hold any feelings for the girl YET(will soon enough i guess). awesome art, good characters and good plot so far.

I read Savage Garden today, on recommendation from someone else. IT'S FANTASTIC. So interesting, beautifully drawn and just... perfect. It's such a shame there are only four volumes scanlated, because I absolutely cannot wait to read more of it! I hope 'Jeremy' stays a boy for a long time yet. (What's up with her real name, anyway? Gabriel?)

Who the hell names a girl Gabriel? ๐คจ
EDIT: I've read a bit of RoV and RGU, but from what I understood, nobody fell for the 'boy' as a boy? ๐

Family Compo is what yo are looking for ....... ๐ ๐
the male lead is madly in love with the female lead but cannot determine the sex of the heroine ๐ . the story is very good and it has a bit of ecchi but it on a moderate level ๐คข ... the best gender-bender romantic-comedy manga out there according to me ..... read a few chapters and you cant stop reading the rest ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐

There's also Orpheus no Mado which is like Rose of Versailles, Russian Revolution Remix. And unlike Rose of Versailles, the guys do fall for her as a guy.

I've tried reading Family Compo, but I never managed to get into it. I suppose I shall have to try again.
I'll try Orpheus no Mado; I've read and enjoyed Glass Mask, and it's by the same mangaka, right?
Thanks for your suggestions! ๐

Hana Kimi: both the main love interest and the second love interest fall for her even though she's disguised as a man. the second love interest have a really hard time dealing with his newfound homosexuality (laugh).
Angel Diary: The girl disguise as a boy and another boy fall for her, he keep teasing her. and then the whole school think this is some sort of forbidden-love yaoi relationship and start fan clubs of sort, the girl is really pissed but the boy enjoy this....
Saver maybe, i didn't actually read it
of course, the man finds out that the heroine is a woman sometime during the story. otherwise the story cannot progress.
