Most of my favorite stories w romance in it also has a "rival arc" (ￗ﹏ￗ) (ￗ﹏ￗ) i rlly hate rival arcs sm bc there's rarely any communication and one character can't get in contact w the other character or something. Are there any long romance stories w no rival arcs???? It can be the two ppl getting together or two ppl living domestically or both or anything. Just..... no rival arcs pls

Thank you in advance!!
