Could you tell me which sounds more appealing? :)

-a romance between a seemingly emotionless boy and an emotional girl
or
-a romance between a seemingly emotional boy and an emotionless girl

    I think im aiming for a target audience of teen girls and honestly, I have no clue which roles they'd like and who to follow the narration of and that SUCKS for me

    I'd suggest to write against the stereotype--emotional boy, emotionless girl.

    Agree with the person I also want to read something involving an emotionless girl and an emotional boy.
    And maybe I would like it from the girl's point of view? Idk

    I definately would lean towards breaking the stereotype! Not only will it put a twist the audiences views on stereotypes, but may also allow others to empathise with these characters. By perhaps writing on the females point of view may be some sort of concept of a bystander who knows little to nothing as the audience. BUT these characters do tend to become shallow and sometime just boring. Just hmu if you want to discuss more with a fellow? teen, I'd be happy to help :))

    Personally, I would go with both POV.

    I suggest the second option. The first option is basically the outline of A LOT of shoujo mangas out there. It’s always more interesting to see something not as common. Of course it all depends on how well u can execute it but i, personally would get into the second option more than the first.
