Honestly im much the same, sometimes I need someone to fuss over me and take care of me, and other times I need someone that will cling to me and need me to be there for them, both leave me feeling wanted and needed, but differ in the ways it's shown based on how I'm feeling at the time 😅
Yeah, I'd say popular doesn't equal good or the best, there are a few popular yandere's and yandere games out there that I just don't like for any number of reasons, and several games and yandere that I like that aren't massively well known or popular, Louhi and Zehir being two of them 😊
