What are your least favorite tropes? One of mine is when the angel of a second lead guy ends up with the terrible evil princess of a second lead girl. (I should also include second lead girls who’s only personally trait is being totally awful.)
I very much dislike that as well especially when I have SLS this just makes me question his judgement despite how much I tell myself “a heart wants what it wants.”
Recently I feel like I am overdosing on childhood first love/fate in my diet so every time (and it feels like that it happens in almost every drama) it is shown or mentioned I roll my eyes.
I just hate the fact that most second lead guys are portrayed as angels and the second lead girls are portrayed as bitches, to be honest.
Although I honestly sometimes think that the second lead guys that are portrayed as “nice” can be just as manipulative and possessive as the second lead girls.
SAME. Amazing second lead guys don’t deserve it. 🙁 It’s sad that second leads get that treatment just because they’re second leads. I think in writing in general, writers need to acknowledge that SLs are people too, not just characters who fall in love with “the next best person.” If they fell in love with a kind amazing lead girl, how could they possibly fall in love an insufferable SL girl?
