    Helloo!
    GxB, GL, BL, doesn't matter, you can just say what type it is when you rec~
    I'm looking for novels (or manhwas) where mc has family that is neglectful/abusive, or believes antagonist' lies over mc, then regrets or is torn up by guilt when it's too late (or maybe it isn't too late and they slowly build back trust and respect). They're initially prideful and rarely give mc the benefit of the doubt due to habit, and their negative perception slowly start being chipped away when they realise the extent of their prejudice/lack of empathy.

    This type of story would most likely be Second Chance, Transmigration or Reincarnation something, but as long as it's neglectful family deeply regrets and grovels, then I'm all ears!

    I've read Death is the only ending for the villainess and was supposed to be letting the manhwa marinate but I caved and binged it8

    Thanks for reading!

    They Regretted it After Their Hearts Turned to Ashes
    The crying potential is high here. No second chances/rebirth. BL

    Death Progress Bar
    Transmigration (but in fact it's a rebirth).
    Every one of the abusers get their own condemning speach and a moment of regret. BL

    Actually, I was the Real One: reincarnation/time-rewind, no romance in the novel but the manhwa is GxB. The neglectful father’s regret is a slow burn but it’s an important subplot late in the novel.

    Cannon Fodder Fake Master Was Stunned After Being Reborn
    C-Novel, BL, deep regrets, no reconciliation (but new + real wholesome family), fluffy!
    I recently reread this one, and it still holds up as an easy read! Nothing too brain heavy to process!

    The Legitimate Daughter Doesn’t Care!
    C-Novel, BG, deep regret, body swap, potential reconciliation (but overall more emphasis on new life)! Don't be taken aback by the number of chapters, this translator/translating site randomly breaks up chapters without labeling or using the decimal method (ex. ch 1.1, ch 1.2, ch 1.3, etc...)

    A Stepmother’s Marchen
    K-Novel, BG, second chance, rebirth, MC as a step mother not as a child, Regret with a capital R! One of the best written stories I've read, but do mind the gruesome bits!

    There Is No Place For Fakes
    K-Novel, BG, second chance, MC finds a novel writing her future, regret and bittersweet memories! I really like the push and pull of the characters, even if it's frustrating at times! If you can take miscommunication mishaps, definitely recommend!

    Isn’t Being A Wicked Woman Much Better?
    K-Novel, BG, transmigration, villainess redemption, slight regrets, but very quick turnaround to pampering! I just wanted to add this novel in case you were craving a fluffier, more pampering-y type of novel with small regrets. I know it's not too close to what you're asking, but the previous K-Novels I recommended are pretty heavy--here the family antics are really funny and silly, if you'd like a mental break!
