Boy meets girl in church camp. Boy is the Big Brother type and the ladies love him because he remains in the Friend Zone. They guys hate him because the ladies love him. In comes a girl who asks for his help. She wants him to pretend to be her boyfriend to keep the other guys away from her. Their relationship develops but they eventually drift apart due to circumstances.
Boy, now a man, is a whiz at math and is recruited by the Navy to work on a secret project. He uses this project to locate the girl, now a woman, he left behind only to find she is closer than he could have imagined.

Once upon a time, there was a girl named Anna who loved watching romantic comedies. She swooned at the thought of love, and she couldn’t resist the happy endings that came with the genre.
Anna was a hopeless romantic, and she often found herself daydreaming about meeting her true love just like the characters in her beloved movies.
One day, Anna decided to take matters into her own hands. She started looking for love in all the wrong places, hoping to find her movie moment.
But things didn’t go as planned. She went on several dates, but none of them made her heart flutter like she had hoped.
Anna started to lose faith in her movie-inspired dreams. That was until she met Ethan.
Ethan was the every-girl’s-dream man. He was charming, kind, and could make her laugh like no one else. They first met in a coffee shop, just like in one of Anna’s favorite movies.
They talked for hours, and Anna couldn’t believe how easily they connected. It was like they had known each other for years.
From that day on, Anna and Ethan were inseparable. They had their ups and downs, but their relationship was always filled with romance and laughter. It was like they were living in a real-life romantic comedy.
As time went on, Anna realized that love wasn’t exactly like the movies. It wasn’t always perfect, and it didn’t always have a happy ending.
But she also learned that love could be just as magical and fulfilling as a movie. She just had to find the right person.
In the end, Anna and Ethan lived happily ever after- proving that romantic comedies might not always be true to life, but they can inspire real-life love stories.
Romcom do have such a bad rap because
-
Cliché plotlines: Many romantic comedies follow predictable plotlines that have been used countless times before. This can make them feel formulaic and unoriginal.
-
Lack of diversity: Romcoms often feature white, straight, cisgender protagonists, which can make them feel exclusionary to audiences who don’t fit that mold.
-
Unrealistic expectations: Romcoms typically depict idealized, fairy tale-like relationships that don’t always reflect real-life romance, leading some to criticize them for setting unrealistic expectations.
-
“Girly” or “cheesy” stigma: The genre is often associated with being overly sentimental, corny, or aimed solely at female audiences, which can contribute to the negative perception some people have of it.
Wow i said much 
Still searching for more options haha
