Hello~!!!
I'm looking for a manga about a guy (main character) becomes the girl's (main character) boyfriend or husband not because of love but because he uses her for something. Money, status etc... or because he has to marry her because they have a child together.
The girl could either know that the guy is using her but because she loves him she stays with him or she doesn't know and finds out later.
The guy later on realises he loves her, but only after he hurts her so he has to find ways to get her back.

->I want only two main characters (the guy and girl)
->I don't like love-triangles or love-polygons, there could be a third character who likes either of the main characters but I don't want them to be a big part of the story.
->The guy is calm, smart and strong. No wimpy guys.
->The girl isn't a crybaby
->The main characters end up together at the end.
->I prefer shoujo and josei.
->I don't want ecchi, yuri, shoujo-ai, mecha, sci-fi. (I don't mind if the main characters are both guys!)
->Fully scanlated or at least 10+ chapters scanlated and updated regularly. One shots are nice!

Sorry for being so picky!!!!
Thanks! smile

I know I've read a few like this, but the only one that comes to mind right now is Midnight Secretary and a lot of people don't like it. (I did though). Although, I can't remember if she cries all the time... Sorry. sad
In this case, he uses her for
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
blood
which is a little out of the ordinary, but still fits your request.

EDIT: It seams that you've read it already, but I'll keep it here just in case someone else is looking in this thread who hasn't read it.

Oneshot: Dirty Work

Its not exactly what you want but it fits the category your looking for.

Hehehe I also love this kind of manga. It is difficult to find complete manga though. Hmm...it seems like you have already read some of the well-known ones. Anyway, you may have already read what I suggest.
Do Not Fight Kind of frustrating and incomplete.
Reimei no Arcana Incomplete.
Zettai Heiwa Daisakusen Complete.
Maid Maiden Super short chapters and isn't very good though.
Fated to Love You Incomplete manhua but the taiwanese drama has two seasons.
Anata ni Hana o Sasagemashou
Hanayomesama wa 16-sai
Happy Trouble Wedding


Does not entirely fit your request:
Virgin Ripper Not really in a relationship.
Kuro Bara Alice Not really in a relationship.
Bitter Trap (TAKAGI Shigeyoshi) Oneshot.
M.A.X GOOD but the leads are not really in a relationship.
Koi Shitagari no Blue Conflicts...There is a LOVE POLYGON.
Sono Kuchibiru, Itadakimasu Complete.

Oneshots:
Ai Kaimasee!
Love Graduation
Narabuna Kiken!!
Hot Cherry

There are a few harlequin manga out there too but they tend to be horrible even though they are complete.
Powerful Persuasion
Sajou no Kekkon
Sheikh no Proposal
Shukumei no Partner
Yawareta Princess

I'm sure there are many more out there including Yaoi. You should take time to go through these categories if you are bored. wink
Fake Relationship
Relationship of Convenience
Pretend Lovers[/m]
Arranged Marriage

Totally seconding Faster Than a Kiss. One of the first manga I've ever read and it also began my short-lived obsession over student-teacher mangas =3

Also, maybe Billion Girl?

I've watched the drama Goong already so I don't think I'd like to read the same story again. I've tried reading Hadashi de Bara o Fume but dropped it but I think I'll pick it up again. Thanks!

I agree with you! Do Not Right is really fustrating so I just dropped it. I'm currently reading Reimei no Arcana and I've already completed Zettai Heiwa Daisakusen. I've watched the drama of Fated To Love You but I didn't know there was a season 2. I've read M.A.X before but got bored of it so I dropped it. I've already read Koi Shitagari no Blue and Sono Kuchibiru, Itadakimasu is on my wish list. I think I've read some of those oneshots before but I'm not really sure because I've read a lot without putting it on my complete list and some of them are so similar. I really love harlequin manga and I've read all that you suggested except one. I'll check those categories out too. Thank you so much for all the suggestions!!! I'm really grateful!!!! ^^
