Light novels about a high school male leads with cynical views on society (after all, at start Araragi followed a concept that having friends would decrease his intensity as human) meet other people (mostly girls) and starts to actually having friends/being a romantic interest of others. Both are comedies with some serious moments, but while Oregairu focuses on the romantic aspect, Monogatari Series focuses on the supernatural one. Also, Monogatari Series has some actual character developement that explain why an ex-loner has friends and relationships now.
Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. and Monogatari Series: First Season both follow the story of a social recluse that finally socialize more or less against their will. The MCs also have really a similar love interest. Senjougahara and Yukino both are really intelligent yet quiet and monotonous beings. Tho, in both novels, the protags (Araragi and Hikigaya) don't really wan't to get with their respective love interest which leads to some pretty interesting scenes displaying a one sided love. And last but not least, Monogatari and Oregairu display an amazing comedy and have a lot of pop culture references in them.
