My Thoughts on I’m Dating a Cool Girl From a Benefactor Who Picked Me Up, but She Seems to Like Someone Else, so When I Ask Her if She’ll Break up With Me, She Acts Weird?
Okay, that title is a mouthful, right? Going into this novel, "I’m Dating a Cool Girl From a Benefactor Who Picked Me Up, but She Seems to Like Someone Else, so When I Ask Her if She’ll Break up With Me, She Acts Weird?" I was prepared for a wild ride. And well, it definitely delivered on the "weird" part.
First Impressions
The premise is definitely intriguing. We've got an MC who's been taken in by a benefactor and is now dating a "cool girl." The added layer of her seemingly liking someone else sets up a nice bit of initial conflict. The early chapters do a decent job of establishing the slice-of-life, school romance vibe, which is generally pleasant and easy to get into.
What Works Well
I appreciate that the story doesn’t drag its feet when the MC voices his doubts. The female lead's reaction is a refreshing break from the usual tsundere tropes that plague this genre. It’s nice to see her make her feelings clear, which creates a solid foundation for their relationship to grow…or so I thought.
Areas of Concern
Here’s where things get a little…complicated. The female lead's behavior takes a sharp turn. Some of her actions feel extreme and honestly, a bit unsettling. It creates a jarring contrast with the initial slice-of-life feel and throws the whole dynamic off balance. I found it hard to reconcile the sweet, slightly aloof girl from the beginning with the person she becomes later on.

Final Verdict
Overall, "I’m Dating a Cool Girl From a Benefactor Who Picked Me Up, but She Seems to Like Someone Else, so When I Ask Her if She’ll Break up With Me, She Acts Weird?" is a mixed bag. The initial premise is promising, and the early interactions between the leads are enjoyable. However, the shift in the female lead's character and the extreme actions she takes raise some serious red flags. I'm giving it a tentative 3/5. Proceed with caution, and be prepared for a wild ride that might not be for everyone.
