* There are quite a few young adult books that follow this formula, Sarah Dessen's work being a good example. They usually are exactly like the countless movies in this genre, except that they take place in high school. It also is common for the love interest to be the main character's childhood friend.

->''"Brendon, the RomanticComedy is dead, [[TheGoodThief Nick Nolte]] and JuliaRoberts KILLED IT!"''
-->-- '''Jason''', ''HomeMovies''

A RomanticComedy can be roughly defined as a comedy where the primary dramatic tension comes from a simple question: will the protagonist or protagonists find love? (The answer, by the way, is almost invariably "yes") Other plot elements play roles, sometimes big roles, but generally, the work focuses on the love lives of the main characters.
