Line 199:
A subtrope involves a young man going on an adventure in order to impress the object of his affections, and returning to find that she's become engaged, or even married, while he was away. (Often her choice will demonstrate that what ''really'' impresses her is a man with a steady job who can be relied on to stay by her instead of disappearing off on adventures.)
