Question: Which story idea sounds better!?
It's a romance story, kinda, I guess!. xP

The main characters of the story are a "bad boy" rebel and the seemingly innocent new girl at school!.

So, should I do:

~ The bad boy tries to get the new girl to like him, even though she isn't attracted to bad boys and doesn't like that he smokes, etc!.

~ Or should I do the new girl tries to get the bad boy to like her, even though he doesn't date and isn't interested in dating!.

Which do you like better!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I think it would be more interesting to write from the boy's point of view!. He may seem like the b-a type, but deep inside he really cares about the girl!. It would be really cool to write about alll his confused emotions and how he has to like hidde it from his friends or whatever!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think that it would be more interesting to see the boy try harder and harder to win the heart of the innocent, grade-A type girl!. If you'll be writing it in first person of the girl, I think it would make an excellent story because you'll get to hear her thoughts!. "Why would he do that!?" "Was what he said really true!?" etc!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I like the second one better!. Your main char is someone the reader (male or female) can identify with and you also worry that this isn't the best thing for her!. Many more possibilities!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The second!. But either would work!.
If you choose the second, the crisis would come when the bad boy wants to continue with bad behavior, but the girl wants him to change!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

how about she's super preppy and he's a total bad @$$ and they both like each other, but she won't date him because her friends won't approve!. (See lyrics to Avril Lavigne's "Sk8ter Boi" for more details)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Definitively the first one, where the bad boy tries to get her!. I just wouldn't read about the girl trying to get the boy in this instance!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

second!.
Cos it makes sense!. And it will be more interestingWww@QuestionHome@Com
