If you are writing in a genre that isn't "Romance," your romantic subplot must serve the main plot. In a thriller, the boyfriend becomes the hostage. In a fantasy, the lover holds the lost amulet.

Consider the success of shows like The Office or Friends . The Jim and Pam, or Ross and Rachel, arcs were successful because the writers understood the value of pacing.

Today, romantic storylines are shifting. We are seeing a move away from the "Happily Ever After" as a final destination and more toward "Happily Ever After... For Now."
