The heroine should initially be involved with a possessive creep,
a catatonic Wasp, a perfectly harmless fellow she's been dating for
years, or Mr Wrong. It is never clear to the audience what she sees
in him.
Boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy finds girl again
Pushy but lovable mother
Unlikely pairings
Harried, befuddled father
Damsel in distress
The male lead has a best friend who is a lovable slob. Not until he can
ditch this slob friend is he ready for the big time, relationship-wise.
Love is an obstacle course
The female lead almost never ends up with the man she was originally
supposed to spend the rest of her life with.
The gay neighbor or co-worker who knows what you're going through because
he's had his heart broken so many times himself.
Replaces boyfriend, the guy she
replaces him with may work with his hands or live in Montana or raise bees.
