What a bizarre reason not to like romance.

The thing is, in real life there's no good explanation for why X falls for Y instead of Z when Y and Z are similar people. So what you generally set up as the premise of a romance is that Y is a different kind of person than X usually meets.

For example, if X is a lawyer and generally only meets lawyers, Y will be an artist. It doesn't mean that Y is the only artist in the entire world, it just means they're the only artist in X's world.

But anyway, you're not supposed to take them seriously.

The reason not to like romance is because the writing in most cases is absolutely SHIT.

What the OP describes sounds like it falls under the category of shit writing, though.

OP is talking about the content. I'm talking about the craft of writing.

My favorite example of this divide is Divergent. I thought the writing was so smooth that I felt like I was inside the book.

At the same time, the content was terrible. It was one of the dumbest books I've ever read.

/shrug I tend to think that writing crappy characters falls well within the craft of writing...or lack thereof.
