In the Beginning


There is no such thing as "Love at First Sight." It's true. Ask everyone you know. Some might believe that there is such a thing, but in reality there isn't. Of course, people can fall in love the first time they see someone, but it isn't like WHAM! Nope. So, when your character first falls in love, make it gradual. The only way you can have it happen quicker is if the two grew up together or have known each other for a long time. Romances don't come into existence in one day. Nor do they in a week. So, just make sure you don't get into things too quickly. And that's the first rule.

Man Overboard!


We all love drama. But too much drama is wrong.

First of all, no couple is absolutely flawless. Fighting among spouses is obvious. No two people are perfect for each other. So arguing is undoubtedly going to occur. So make sure that happens. A little fight here and there is perfect. And a little cheating is okay. Just a tiny bit.

But DO NOT GO OVERBOARD. That's the worst thing you can do. Don't have a breakup just because of a tiny argument. Don't completely cheat, even if just to make the other jealous. A little kiss is nothing, but anything more... Don't do it. Simple as that.

Simplicity


Absolute passion. It's not always best. Not every moment demands passion. So little signs of affection, like kissing, are best. This also goes under "Man Overboard!" You don't normally see a couple making out in the street or in front of more than one -- if any -- person. So, don't have your characters do it. Simple as that. Simple kissing, hugging, and lesser exploring hands are okay, but not too much. Don't go completely into passion, what with the undressing, exploring mouth, etc. It's okay at some times, but not every other post, or page for that matter, got it?

If you want something added to a guide it might be faster to PM the creator. If you just want a question answered then make a thread in the Classes forum.
