So, I have to ask, how do y'all handle romance. Right now I am writing one that is a slow build. A date here, some hand holding there, and so on. It'll take an entire book for my MMC to even admit he is in love and wants to have a relationship with this girl. Is that too long of a withholding without enough of a lay off. I'd like to note that the MMC is dead set on not having a relationship because of a damaging, socially, mentally, and physically and blood borne disease that he doesn't want to spread. But after meeting her and almost dying decides life is too short to live without love. Does this work or is it too much held back with not enough pay off?
