12 Steps to Not Fall in Love on Wattpad [EDITING] by iFantasy
30 parts Complete
In order to not fall in love on Wattpad, there are 12 rules you must follow. After all, there are many charming girls wandering the comments sections, and it's almost impossible to keep your heart safe. That's why you need to keep it locked, throw away the key, grab your favorite snack, and stick to the plan. A love story worthy of a book? Who needs that? Why risk a relationship when it only brings chaos, vulnerability, and heartbreak in the end? Especially if it's through a screen. But then she shows up-smart, funny, and somehow impossible to ignore. Suddenly, Nini's rules start crumbling one by one. Now she's learning how *not* to stalk someone's posts, how *not* to overthink every message, and how *not* to fall for a girl she swore she wouldn't let get too close. Nini has her reasons to avoid love, but cupid on Wattpad seems to be way too good at its job.
