Funnily, this is the sort of writing I enjoyed in high school, when I was still a ways off from the target audience. Now that I've reached that target, realized I'm aroace, and happily come to terms with the fact that romance and the typical relationships we're generally expected to want will have absolutely no role in my life, this sort of writing just grates on me. There were one or two stories I enjoyed but overall they were very meh.
