Remember this is a character driven trope, based heavily on how characters come together. In order for something to quality:
# The leads must be protagonists. If the male lead is the protagonist, then the female cannot be a mentor, parent, or any other character who doesn't play a central role. Check if the characters' ages are the same. If they are, then it almost always fits. If it doesn't, then there's a chance it may not; proceed with caution.
# There should be only two characters clearly identifiable as the protagonists. A [[Ragtag BandBunch of Misfits]] does not count. Similarly, a trio of [[Two Girls and a Guy|two girls and one boy]] or [[Two Guys and a Girl|two boys and a girl]] is also disqualified.
# Both must share in the advancement of the plot. Whether they are together or separated, each one's actions should contribute equally (more or less) to the progress and eventual resolution of the story.
