Description
Yan Tingmo, a socially anxious academic genius who wishes he could turn invisible, has a new headache. His problem? What do you do when your boyfriend keeps trying to sleep with you? Ever since dating Qi Xing, Yan Tingmo has been plagued by this dilemma. Calm and rational, he sought advice online. The responses were unanimous: “Break up! Men who just want to sleep with you are no good!” “First figure out: does he love you and want to sleep with you, or does he just want to sleep with you?” “Run! True love isn’t about sex—leave him immediately!” “Dump him. He doesn’t respect you; he’s just after his own desires.” That night, Yan Tingmo updated his post: “We broke up.” Two days later, chaos erupted in A University’s forums: Student Council President Qi Xing got dumped by the renowned “untouchable beauty” of the Art Department. Two months of dating, and not once had they held hands or kissed. Qi Xing, baffled, grabbed the half-a-head-shorter Yan Tingmo and demanded: “Why did you break up with me?” Awkward, Yan Tingmo averted his gaze. Qi Xing pressed on: “Speak up. We agreed when we started dating…” “You don’t respect me at all. You’re only interested in satisfying your desires.” Qi Xing, incredulous, burst out laughing. “When did I ever force you to do anything you didn’t want to do?” Yan Tingmo’s tears started streaming. “I don’t want to date you anymore. Let’s break up!” Qi Xing froze. His first thought: My wife left me. Second thought: Fine, break up. Whoever crawls back first is a dog. Despite his resolve to stay mad, he couldn’t avoid hearing: “Yan Tingmo’s attending a cosplay convention.” “Yan Tingmo scored first place in the exams again.” “Yan Tingmo has a new boyfriend.” A… new boyfriend?! Qi Xing’s mind went blank. Dropping everything, he dashed off to reclaim his wife. Pairing: Socially anxious (Yan Tingmo) × Outgoing, confident (Qi Xing).

My Thoughts on A Social Phobic Can Also Fall In Love
"A Social Phobic Can Also Fall In Love" promised a sweet, fluffy romance with a unique twist, and while it delivered on some of that promise, my reading experience was a bit of a mixed bag. The premise is certainly intriguing: a socially awkward protagonist navigating the complexities of love and relationships.
First Impressions
I was immediately drawn in by the concept of a protagonist with extreme social anxiety finding love. The initial chapters were undeniably cute, and I found myself rooting for the main character (MC) to overcome his challenges. The male lead (ML) also seemed like a genuinely caring and patient partner, which added to the appeal.
What Works Well
The novel shines in its depiction of quiet, tender moments between the MC and ML. There's a definite sweetness that permeates the story, and the author clearly excels at writing those small, intimate interactions that make a romance feel believable. I also appreciated the effort to portray the MC's social phobia with some sensitivity, even if it occasionally veered into caricature.
Areas of Concern
However, I did find myself getting frustrated with some of the plot and character choices. The level of naivety displayed by the MC sometimes felt exaggerated, and the constant misunderstandings, while a common trope, occasionally felt forced and prolonged. I also felt that the supporting characters were underdeveloped, and their subplots didn't always add to the overall narrative. The introduction of random conflicts and characters towards the middle and end of the story felt jarring and detracted from the central romance.

Final Verdict
Overall, "A Social Phobic Can Also Fall In Love" is a light and fluffy read with some genuinely sweet moments. However, its reliance on exaggerated misunderstandings, underdeveloped supporting characters, and questionable plot devices ultimately holds it back from reaching its full potential. If you're looking for a quick, uncomplicated romance with a unique premise, this might be worth a try, but be prepared for some frustrating moments along the way.
