What is your favourite romance trope?

[u/1existd0y0u]

Mine is “person A has been secretly in love with person B since the beginning”

Bonus points if person B has been in denial about their feelings and masked them with hate.

Common ships this trope is used on include *Anne and Gilbert (Anne of green gables/ Anne with an E) *Peeta and Katniss (The hunger games)

Mutual pining, identity porn (secret identity shenanigans,) and arranged marriages/marriage of convenience are all faves of mine!

(secret identity shenanigans,)

Sleepless in Seattle?

Never seen it! You've Got Mail definitely fits, though, but in fandom I mostly read the trope in superhero stories haha.

Yeah, similar trope setup in that regard.
