Love Interest
A "Love Interest" refers to a character in a story who is romantically appealing to another character. This relationship often drives the plot and can lead to various emotional developments. Love interests can be found in literature, film, and television, and they typically embody traits that attract the main character, creating tension and conflict.
In many narratives, the love interest may face obstacles that challenge the relationship, such as misunderstandings or external pressures. This dynamic can enhance the storyline, making it more engaging for the audience. Examples of love interests include characters like Elizabeth Bennet from Pride and Prejudice and Jack Dawson from Titanic.
