The love interest is someone who the protagonist will likely fall in love with. The love interest is the most over used archetype in history. It can be seen in hundreds of books and movies throughout the ages. The love interest can be the motivation for the protagonist’s journey. The goal for the love interest is to be in a relationship with the protagonist. The love interest doesn’t have to be in love with the protagonist, in the beginning they often actually dislike each other, and later find out they are attracted to each other. There are several ways the love interest is depicted, but they almost always have some sort of romantic chemistry with the protagonist. Most stories have a love interest, even if not in the main plot, though there is not always a happy ending.
