## My Thoughts on Don’t Be Jealous, I Will Bend Myself "Don’t Be Jealous, I Will Bend Myself" is a yuri web novel that I found to be a mixed bag, but ultimately enjoyable. The premise is intriguing: a writer transmigrates into her own novel to help the female lead find love, and shenanigans ensue. While it has its flaws, the humor and heartwarming moments kept me engaged. ### First Impressions Initially, I was drawn in by the comedy and the promise of a sweet GL romance. The first arc, in particular, seems to be a hit with most readers, including myself. It's lighthearted, funny, and sets up the relationship between the MC and FL nicely. The system, Doudou, adds a layer of comedic relief, though I can see how some might find it annoying. ### What Works Well The episodic nature of the novel allows for diverse settings and character interactions. Many readers praised the character development and found the romances to be heartwarming. The FL personalities are varied across different arcs, which keeps things fresh. The humor is also a strong point, with well-written jokes and funny misunderstandings that are resolved quickly. I also appreciated how the author ties everything together in the end, explaining some of the seemingly random plot points. ### Areas of Concern However, the novel isn't without its issues. The pacing can be inconsistent, with some arcs feeling rushed or unsatisfying. Some found the translation quality to be rough around the edges, with awkward phrasing and confusing sentences. The second arc seems to be a point of contention, with some finding the MC and FL's relationship feeling forced due to system-imposed limitations. Finally, the ending was rushed and confusing. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Some readers have expressed concerns about the ending, particularly regarding the MC's mother and girlfriend's actions. The lack of consent and the feeling of manipulation have left some with a negative impression. Additionally, some readers mention the presence of non-con scenes, while others dispute it. I recommend reading with caution and being aware of these potential triggers. ### Final Verdict Despite its flaws, "Don’t Be Jealous, I Will Bend Myself" is a worthwhile read if you're looking for a funny and heartwarming yuri novel. The episodic structure and diverse romances keep things interesting, and the humor is a definite highlight. However, be prepared for some pacing issues and a potentially controversial ending. Overall, I'd recommend giving it a try, but approach it with a light mind and be prepared to skim through some parts.
