: Re: How to write a character who is falling in love, but doesn't know? So I have been trying to write a character that is oblivious to romantic advances because they mistake them for normal, platonic
One thing you can try would be to write out a possible argument or scene with a bit of tension surrounding the disinterest in romance.
For example, say it's valentines day and the love interest brushes off your MCs attempt to have a romantic dinner. Being able to show (don't tell) the hurt that character is feeling and the other not seeing anything wrong with the situation will highlight the imbalance with their perspectives.
Even if you don't use this in your finalized piece, it may be enough background for you to sprinkle in details of tension (doesn't necessarily need to be a full on argument) that arise from the situation.
Hope this helps.
