Doomed Love can totally get me as well. But yeah, it has to be really doomed.... most of the "Woe! He is of another religion/we come from dueling clans/my family will disown me" type stuff doesn't really strike me as doomed. I mean, I think it can be, but I always want the lovers to actually discuss or something. Like, maybe you are from dueling clans! But have you tried actually mentioning it first to your brother/mother/ruling clan person? (If they do and the answer is "you will be outlawed! We will hate you forever!" then yeah, it does feel more doomed) Also, "this is not going to work out because we are too different" doesn't tend to strike me as Doomed.

Well, unless it's dysfunctional. Ha! And this is where I totally contradict myself, because if you throw in angels and demons, I am so in!

ZOMG. Speaking of Doomed Love, have you seen the trailer for Ang Lee's Lust, Caution? Pushes every single one of my Doomed Love buttons.
