weirdwriter, to romancelandia

Can other Romance readers explain why insta love is so hated? I actually prefer insta love to the long drawn out getting to know characters. Like, for example, I actually prefer it when characters just meet and they have this instant but deep connection, like the universe was just biting it's time until it can get these people in the same room. I find the longer getting to know characters books without the instalove challenging to read. I'm more interested in how the MC's can sustain their instalove and deepen it. I find it difficult to follow characters as they're trying to get to know each other. @romancelandia

@weirdwriter @romancelandia I like instalove when it’s done well. When it’s just “See hot person, want to fuck them immediately” I don’t find it that interesting. I need the tension of them trying to make it last. But IRL I’m demisexual so may be part of it!

@weirdwriter @romancelandia I’m similar! I tend to write instalove but love reading slow burn. But sometimes slow burn is written so boringly you’re like how do these two even like each other? 😂😂
