Well... scribblehub, being the den of all kind of filth you can find in human mind (well... that's what I heard in NU), honestly isn't my first choice. I'm looking for a story where the protagonist is straight in sexual orientation, single partner (no harem, ending a relationship with girl A to start relationship with girl B is alright), weak to strong, not OP protagonist, no mention of god/goddess, not being the strongest or near strongest, except in epilogue or end, character growth for most of the named characters that interacts with the protagonist often, non-2D villain, the protagonist is not always right, the protagonist is not lucky, not romance centric, modern day is preferable compared to fantasy world, but not necessary, not fetish story (like furry, loli, slime girl), and... well, just give me your suggestion? I'll refine the request based on your suggestion.
I may have a series that fits your criteria, but the thing is, I only have it vaguely planned out since I’m currently writing a novel that doesn’t fit your criteria (it’s Boys Love). I can still reveal to you a tidbit as a way to shamelessly advertise it before I publish it, which will be some time in the near future:
Zen is a twenty-five year old man who has lost everything. Everything.
He was born with a very useless ability: the ability to control fragile, transparent strings. Seriously, Zen can’t even choke or trip anyone with it. Thus, his Family ostracized him, as they do to all weak members.
When his scheme to humiliate a certain someone from one of the Great Families fails, Zen is disowned by his Family. As payback for scheming against their person, Zen was tortured, crippled, and left to hopelessly roam the streets of the city.
Even then, his bad luck continues to plague him: He was constantly scammed and bullied by his fellow homeless wanderers.
At the end of all his lines, Zen finally falls prey to one of the greatest scammers in the city. In exchange for the power to take revenge, Zen trades away ten years of his life.
With his new-found powers, Zen takes revenge on the homeless bums who bullied him.
Finally! Good luck is on my side, he thought.
However, he rejoiced too soon. His body suddenly falls to the cold, concrete ground. Zen could feel himself dying.
How...? He thought bitterly,
My luck is so fucking bad... I can’t even live to be 35? Curse you, fate!
Samuel Dockes stared down at the body of the man struggling to live even on his dying breath.
“You and I... are similar. We have been forsaken by the Families. But whereas I chose to give up, you choose to live.
Very well, I will give you a second chance.”
When Zen opens his eyes, he realizes he has returned to the incident 10 years ago—the incident before everything turned worse.
Follow Zen on his journey, filled with tons of bad luck, as he forms his Family and takes revenge against the Families who once brought him down to his lowest—all while knowing he won’t live to pass the age of 35.

*MC: Becomes overpowered, but mainly chooses to lay low for the most part. Also, his biggest hater is his bad luck.
*NO HAREM. MC sticks with one girl. She’d rip off his balls if he brings home another girl.
*FANTASY: No mythical creatures or magic. People are just born with different abilities.
*NOTE: I may change some things as I continue planning out my story. But this is the general premise.
If you want to check out a sneak peek of Zen, hehehe, he will appear in
Chapter 6 of my current series,
To Love A Moura, since they share the same universe.
YES. I AM SHAMELESSLY ADVERTISING A BL STORY AND ANOTHER NOVEL THAT HAS NOT YET EXISTED.
