I think I’ve already complained about shitty het rivalmance in published novels, but here I am complaining about it again. If you’re going to have your viewpoint character be attracted to someone, please come up with any reason other than “they’re physically attractive and continuously disrespect me.” At least fanfic rivalmance knows to tone down the assholishness sometimes!
