Has anyone ever thought or read a story where a group of friends slowly start to break because friend B stole her friend A crush? And I know this is being used in many stories/fanfictions and it's clichè, and I get it. But what if we see in Friend B perspective and why, one would say for revenge and jealousy. But what if she stole friend A crush because she wants to experience what's it's like to be in a teen romance. Throughout her whole childhood, no one has ever liked her romantically except her 2 old friends, she was teased for looking older and experiencing teen hormones at a young age(ex. Pimples). As she grew, she crave to experience teen romance but she was told 'you just have to wait'. So she decided to take matters in her own hands, every time she tries to get close to one person they either have a partner or they have a crush on my friend and vice versa. So what she did next, was to follow their advice. She took her time waiting, spending her luxury time reading romance fanfiction, and enjoying her youth and yet the punctured whole that's been their ever since she was young was still their. When she entered senior high she was able to scope out new friends and was greeted every new student in every 1 month. So when going home with her new group of friends, friend A spilled how she has a crush on a guy Friend B was looking at. The automatic response of friend B was to stay away friend A crush and try not to be suspicious, but she was so tired reserving herself for someone else not to mention she didn't want to break her new found friendship with her friend group but doesn't she deserve to be happy for once? Doesn't she get to experience what it's like to be in a teen romance situation? But is it really worth it to just break your bond over some guy?.
To all the beautiful plumpy black women, I need your help. This is just a question I have I have in mind and it's pure curiosity and study, I wanted to expand my characters and add different race, facial structure, hair style, body weight and more. And you're wondering why I'm specifically asking black women? Because I wanted to know what kind hair I'm looking at, and my main target is Zoe Kravitz.
I did some research on what kind of hair I'm looking at and the only one I see that resembles the hair in the picture is natural wave, I was introduced boho hair and I assumed it was still braiding your hair (I'm sorry if I offended any of you ladies). The reason why I going so far to ask you ladies is because I want to make or add a specific style in the character I was undergoing. This is a project I'm making for future stories a.k.a original books/characters and so that I can wright fanfictions and expand the main character, cause there isn't much more race protagonist in fanfiction stories. And I wanted to make a change
So please, I asking you ladies to help me study what kind of hair I'm looking at. Cause what I like the hair in the picture is it's naturally dry and wavy
(if I had mistaken Zoe Kravitz race I deeply apologize for not searching more on her race, I assumed immediately she was black. Again, I'm very sorry)
Can someone please tell me if people are okay with a polyamory relationship or a relationship with Hannibal or will, from the Hannibal series. If not please tell me your opinions why, I just recently watched the Hannibal series and I love both the characters and actors. I'm really willing to read a Hannibal/will but there are times where there's an OC or self-insert story I want to read and there aren't many in AO3.
What makes a good Dark Romance Book?
Is there a good dark romance book or there's no good dark romance book? If you're just scrolling down and you somehow saw this post because we have the same tags, then please have the time to read my thoughts.(please keep in mind on what I ask) this started when I was craving to read a dark romance book, I wanted to have a big bad villain or main love interest to fall in love with FMC. So I decided to go search it with my trusty app "TikTok", there were so many book recommendations for dark romance themes but the one that was mostly recommended was "Haunting Adeline" by H.D Carlton. I was interested with the short summary and I was ready to read it, but when I was minding my business I saw this one post who was talking about what dark romance was supposed to be, talking about how they were supposed to be a morally grey mmc or a vampire mmc. And when I check the comment section a lot of people hated Haunting Adeline. I was really conflicted on what I was doing and reading since I was diagnosed with depression last year(my mom says whatever your reading it can affect your thoughts and mood) and I was doing better and happier and I didn't want to waste those efforts just to go back being a pit of messy sadness and anger. So what I did like any sane person do was to avoid reading it, I still have it just not read it. I was really conflicted on what was going through me and I should start avoid reading dark romances, however there was that ever longing of having a dark villainous love interest fall for the Female lead and see her as their love of their life and their vulnerability. So I started asking google if there was any good dark romance books and I received nothing, i mean sure it'll show dark romance books but not GOOD dark romance books. If you're confused on what I mean here's my category:
Good Dark Romance:
Good dark romance books are where the main love interest is mysterious, have gone through a very traumatic past and morally grey philosophy. They're like an anomaly you want to discover and hold it onto your own hands; here are my top picks that I think are good dark romance books. Trilogy of "Blood of my Monster" by Rina Kent and "Sweet Temptation" by Cora Reilly
Dark Romance:
From what I understand from dark romance enthusiast, they're are willing to kill, destroy, blackmail and etc. just to get the girl.(for those who read Haunting Adeline please tell me if I'm mistaken but did the main love interest rape someone or rape the female lead? Cause that has me spiralling my Insanity.)
Thoughts:
What I want to read for a dark romance story is like "Crossed" by Emily Mcintire the never ever after series. I want a man who's willing to kill and sacrifice for the girl, bend and break himself to shreds until he gets his happily ever after. I just want to read a dark romance book in a people's standards, cause I felt that in order to live the fullest of your life is to be part of the society. You have to be where people feel comfortable and satisfied, cause if you don't you're just someone who's called crazy. I know how to separate myself with fiction and reality and sometimes my depression gets me because of the story but I'm able to bounce back and realize these are just works of fiction(and I knew what I was getting myself into). And I've always wanted to feel be part of the world or a community who feel the same I feel and not criticize unless correct me if I'm wronged. A lot of people say it's not a good excuse to use "Oh it's a dark romance book" and it's not right for young teenagers or adults reading this, and I agree but didn't the author wright tags or warn readers how it's for mature audiences before reading? Isn't a person fault for reading it regardless of the warnings? If a person wants to read a dark romance book and read through the trigger warnings but enjoyed the book shouldn't the person just relax and love the book? It doesn't mean they support the mmc doings or romanticize it but rather they just love the idea of it. It's also the person fault if they read the book regardless of the warnings and started hating the book. It's not the book fault but the person themselves, the author realize how gory and mature for this to be published in public and wrote down trigger warnings how it's only for mature audiences ONLY. And Im just scared that people are just going to hate this post on what I made when all I wanted was to hear a person thoughts on what they deem is a good dark romance story for them.
