TW: Moonflight rants on about writing romance

I personally love the idea of love stories, as they can go so many ways. They could be the whole point of the plot, or they could be just a side to the story. They could mess things up or fix them.

I enjoy writing romance. A good story wouldn’t be as good without it, but sometimes people think otherwise. Firstly, relationships can be cringe and sometimes just overbearing. In my future stories (which will have a bit of that) I try to keep it slow at first so that its not too much.

As Sunnyfox put, there’s several ways that a romantic relationship can go, from the two not admitting they like each other, to a love-hate relationship, and all the way to two friends becoming more than friends.

Things can go wrong. That’s typically the best part of writing that stuff. There can be triangles or separations or something much worse. One could not be what they seem. One might have to push the other away for certain reasons, despite loving them with all their heart.

Or the hard situation, where one has feelings for the other but is too scared to admit it. Beings rejected is one of peoples greatest fears.

Or just make a wholesome love story? That could work too lmao-
