This was better than expected, the relatively low ratings are probably due to Zheng Shuang's misdeeds. If you are capable of respecting the art instead of the artist, then this is a pretty good slice of life drama to watch.

My Story for You is a very long show, but I rarely felt it being draggy, it was maybe a bit repetitive at times, but considering that we went through 20 years worth of happenings over the course of 48 episodes it was alright. Zheng Shuang was pretty damn good in the drama, she did an excellent job portraying this entitled princess FL character. As for the ML the actor did a good job, but the character had some problems, he has made some decisions that made no sense to me. I liked most supporting characters, (except Hang Dong) but their bromances & friendships felt a little forced at times. The two main love lines were pretty enjoyable for me, the rest of them not so much. I hated the ending that Jia You has gotten, there was zero need for that.

The writing is okay for the most part, but the story lost coherence after the BIG time skip for the last 10~ episodes.

The drama does not have a single kiss scene, but I would have been okay with that. The problem is that the kiss scenes were completely set up, but they fizzled out every single time. Plus in my opinion it's better to not kiss anything rather then going for a forehead kiss. Does anyone even like that?

The show does not have strong love triangles, which is always a plus.

The product placements are no joke in this one. There is that koala doll that a 40 year old woman drags around everywhere & then we had straight up ad segments with various drinks, yogurts & more.

I have grown tired of Kong Lin. She plays the same kind, but narrow minded mom character in every second cdrama I watch.

Perhaps the 8/10 rating is a tad too high, but I felt sad upon reaching the end & I will certainly miss this show, though probably the rewatch value is low.
