As a third year university student with severe social anxiety, you always struggled to face the demands of reality. It was more than just shyness; every smile was a façade, every social interaction was a joke, every person was a threat. And so, you...
Hello! Thank you for checking out my story! Before proceeding, I'd advise you to take a quick look at the disclaimers and content warning list to ensure this book is suitable for you. ദ്ദി(˙ ͜ʟ˙ )
Disclaimers (+ Additional Info)
✦ This story contains mature and unsettling themes (see content warning list). If any of the listed items are triggering for you, please do not continue further. Your safety and wellbeing is far more important. As a reader, you owe the responsibility to judge whether this book is right for you.
✦ While the thrill and excitement of yandere stories can be fun, I do not condone any of the actions or behaviours described throughout this story. Yanderes, by their very nature, are toxic individuals. Don't let fictional fantasy bleed into reality. You deserve better. Stay safe :] ♡
✦ There will occasionally be multiple choice sections that require your own input. Such choices can alter a route you take, change a character's dialogue, or even determine what sort of ending you get. Please have a quick read through the tutorial chapter to ensure you understand how these different choice sections work.
✦ This story is not suitable for minors as it contains sexual content. Note that all NSFW scenes directly involving the reader self-insert will be completely optional. However, the central yandere exhibits hypersexual traits that will seep through his thoughts and behaviour. In other words, smut with your self-insert won't be forced upon you, but be prepared for private yandere degeneracy.
✦ This story is a bit of a slow burn so if you are the type to grow impatient, you may not enjoy this book. This is partly due to the story focusing on [Y/n]'s online interactions with the central yandere, so it will be a while before they meet in person. Don't worry though, the yandere will still be active throughout the early parts of the book. Just no face-to-face contact right away.
✦ The self-insert character has severe social anxiety and a distorted perception of themselves and world around them, making their thoughts and behaviour appear irrational and confusing at times. They will also have moments of suicidal ideation and self-deprecation that will occasionally bleed into the narrative (e.g. the narration may describe [Y/n] as looking hideous in the mirror but it is actually a reflection of how they personally feel). Basically nuance.
[Note: I'm not saying you can't criticise my depiction of [Y/n] or feel annoyed by them. All opinions are valid! I'm just giving you a friendly reminder that this is a 'Yandere x Anxious! Reader' story so be ready for that.]
✦ [Y/n] will be referred to by they/them pronouns so anyone of any gender can insert themselves into the text. If at any point I happen to slip up and misgender them (e.g. suddenly using she/her), please let me know so I can fix it as soon as possible!
✦ The central theme of the book is focused on the online world and, to some extent, being "chronically online." With that in mind, please brace yourself for potential discord-tier dialogue (some of [Y/n]'s online friends are a bit cringe). Also the main yandere of the story loves to spam emoticons in all his messages so if you're not ready for that, you'll HATE this book. But, I mean, let's face the facts here: both of us are using Quotev right now. If you want the gourmet writing shit, you go to AO3 like the rest of us scum. 🫵 If you choose to continue reading, just know that I am out here dishing the fast food of degenerate yandere slop and you WILL chow down on it like a good reader until I say we're done. As the bold and true Shakespeare once said, "I am cringe, but I am free."
✦ The character on the cover was illustrated by @/ Yo_akame on instagram! And the rest was edited by me :3

CONTENT WARNINGS
As of writing this, I don't entirely know the full extent of this book's content. Obviously, I have a basic framework of the plot and characters, but the scenes I have planned are susceptible to change. Below, I have listed everything that COULD potentially be mentioned or included in the story. Once the story is complete, I will rework this section and make sure in includes everything you need to know. Please note that not all items listed are directly linked or perpetuated by the main yandere. There are quite a few horrible people in this story
This book may contain the following:
» Alcohol Abuse » Animal Cruelty (insect mutilation, implied killing of a bird, non-explicit references to animal abuse - only insect torture is done at the hands of the main yandere) » Bullying » Child Abuse (implied CSA and neglect) » Claustrophobia » Depressed/Borderline Suicidal MC » Disassociation » Domestic Abuse » Doxxing » Dubcon » Drugging » Gore Descriptions » Incest » Kidnapping » Mentions of Unhealthy Eating Habits (Binging/Purging) » Mentions of Rape » Murder » Scenes depicting a character vomiting » Sexually Explicit Content » Sexual Harassment » Self-Harm » Suicide & Suicide Ideation » Stalking » Torture » Vulgar Language » Violence
As a general suggestion, if you find dark subject matter difficult to read, this story probably isn't right for you. I do not intend to glorify any of these topics or break Quotev's terms of service.

WAIT!! I HAVE SOMETHING ELSE TO SAY.
Okay, so that main yandere character likes to use emoticons in his messages. And one that he uses often is: ('・ω・')
Unfortunately, Wattpad butchers it every single time and I can't fix it. Here's what it's meant to look like:
