Characters lock eyes and suddenly know they are soulmates. No banter. No friction. Just destiny. This fails because romance is defined by overcoming obstacles . If there is no obstacle, there is no story.

The keyword for the next decade is specificity . The more specific the flaw, the more universal the love. Don't write "He was handsome." Write "He had a laugh that sounded like a lawnmower starting, and she fell in love with that sound." Why will we never get bored of relationships and romantic storylines? Because love is the one mystery we never solve. Every generation must reinterpret it. Every single person must experience it (or the grief of its absence) for themselves. Just destiny
