Whenever I read books or watch something about love stories, why is it when someone doesn't share the feelings from the person who liked them, and their friends get mad at them? I watched some show where a girl named Paige liked Jason, and when Jason went out with another girl (he never even knew Paige liked him), Paige's friends got mad at him for it, saying "Paige and Jason were meant to be!" But doesn't Jason have the right to be who he wants? Just because Paige liked him, doesn't mean he had to like her back. I was angry at her friends, because no one has the right to put pressure or get into their business like that. You can encourage someone to try to "go for them", but do not guilt-trip them if they don't like your friend.
Does this bother anyone else with love stories?

I have actually never noticed this before, or at least no specific example come to mind anyway.
But yeah, that would be annoying.

the friends are basically just trying to be supportive, but they're taking things too far.

Has never happened in any stories I read. But I can definitely agree.

Now that you mention it, I never realized it but actually, you're right.
Yeah, if my friend did that to me, it'd be annoying.

I don't really watch/read love stories so I wouldn't really know, but yeah that does sound annoying.

what I've noticed: if it's a romantic story first the romance sucks If it isn't a romantic story first the romance is ok or even good ?????

yeah but u realize this is an actual thing that happens? people feel emotions irrationally. I know plenty of girls who have had a secret crush on someone and then he goes out with someone and everyone gets upset. its just an emotional response. yet of course, no logic. he doesn't know. and if he did, maybe the feelings wouldn't be reciprocated and everyone should move on.
what kills me in lots of romance stories is how easily they break up or fight. yes, I know some couples do fallout easily over dumb things, but on the other hand, not every couple does. for example, I'm watching a show where this couple's daughter dies, and in lots of others shows I've seen, they will get way upset with each other and separate and then divorce. and I know this happens in reality, but it also doesn't happen and to my relief, this couple realistically worked through it. obviously if a couple has been together for 20 years, they've been through a lot, they know how to communicate, and they understand one another (hopefully) most couples don't have these awkward, sudden arguments. usually they will honestly try to communicate with each other before a breakup especially if they've been together for a long time. I know because I've been in a serious relationship, and our breakup was not a cliche. I know plenty of others who's breakups were also very complex and based on more than just "you didn't say happy birthday to me" "oh, I just didn't say it" "I hate you we're done" "oh bye" like thats called a relationship formed on lust that lasted two weeks. it would happen more like "You didn't say happy birthday." "Oh, sweetie, I'm sorry, I thought I did." "I was waiting all day but no, you never said a word about it." "I'm so sorry, I've just been so caught up in this work lately its consuming everything." "Is there anything I can do to help?" "No, I just need to get this last job finished. Hey, maybe when I'm done we can go down to your favorite place?" "Oh, that would be really nice." "I'm sorry I didn't say anything- happy birthday, I love you." "Love you too."
