Love Confession



This is when the main protagonist makes a declaration of love to another. How it's done, and the reactions to it, will vary. It usually happens with a sense of drama, particularly with shy characters, who are mortified at the thought that they could be rejected by the object of their affection.

It carries extra weight if the confessor has been a longtime admirer or has been carrying a secret crush. It's generally seen as a big risk with a guy confessing to a girl, but when a girl confesses to a guy, it is seen as a triumphant moment.

With all significant declarations there is The "I Love You" Stigma that follows, it's meant to be a big moment.

If the two parties have known each other since childhood and the confession is accepted and the love reciprocated, it can lead them to a happy couples or get married.

Be careful, if the confession is refused (whether kindly or brutally) and the confessor is a bit unhinged, it may lead to an "If I Can't Have You...…" situation.
