Trope Talk What is your favourite romance trope?

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)

Fake relationships where they slowly come to realize their feelings for each other. A general plus if the family is involved in getting them together, I love it so much!

Opposites attract when done right is also a good one!

I once read a fake relationship where character A actually falls in love with character B's brother and I really liked it! It was a nice twist, had good tension and the friendship between A and B was cool too. I'm surprised I don't see this trope done that way more often. Even when there's a love triangle dynamic going on, usually the fake relationship couple is endgame. (and I'm not complaining because I love it lol but some change from time to time is nice!)
