I suck at title-picking so badly.

PLOT
Jiro is your average gang member. Smoking cigs, using crack, and involved in fights, he always returns home to his usual drunken father, his busy mother, and a sense of despair. Failing his classes, he is forced by his mother to attend summer school. But he skips his classes to hang with his "buddies".
Emiko is a member of a high-standing family. A fanatic of bikes and motorcycles, she hopes to attend the annual contest, and win first place. She attends summer school due to a mysterious disappearance during the school year.
When Jiro meets Emiko, he is automatically drawn to her positive attitude. But her family disagrees with her friendship to his. Neverless, their new-found friendship quickly blooms into love. But the mystery of her disappearance is soon uncovered, threatening their relationship.
I wanted to call it "Look to the Shy", but it sounds cheesy, and it has no relation whatsoever...
Help?

I like the plot. It sounds like it could be very intriguing, if presented properly. Have you started writing it yet? If not, then you should worry about creating the story before titling it. Usually, at least for me, if you wait until you are at least part way through a story, it is easier to decide on a suitable title. I'd love to read this piece when you are finished with it, and if you really need help coming up with a title, PM me, and I'll be more than happy to trade ideas with you. biggrin

Should they be snobby or helpful? eek

A mix of both, perhaps? A few snobs trying to hold her back, and at least one best friend who would support whatever decisions she makes. A girl has to have someone on her side, ne?

This sounds like a good story, and I can honestly say that figuring out main plot points helps immensely, but you need to start writing. The title for my story came from something a secondary character said about the main character. I'm sure something good will come to you.

Well... as for the friend's personalities, I think that they should be snobby to further complicate their relationship. And as for the title... I always get stuck at that part. I usually blank out after the titles and abandon the storyline entirely.

Revenge is good. I'm actually a very spiteful person myself. And it would make the story interesting.

Perhaps not just Jealousy, depending on the length of the story. For a short story, I think such a short title would work. If it’s more than a few pages, however, I believe there should be a bit more to the title. But jealousy would definitely work in the title, I think. And, for the record, I'm not usually a jealous person. 3nodding

I was having writer's block at the moment, so excuse me if I say something stupid. And for the record, Misery was a really long book with a one-word title. Too bad you couldn't choose misery, or even anything with misery in it. Like Misery and Happiness.
