Well, in many cases, the college triangle love stories end with a lot of drama. Sometimes, the two people competing for one's love might have a big fight, which makes the person in the middle realize that neither of them is the right choice. Other times, the relationship that was there before the triangle formed might break up due to the intrusion of the third person. However, there are also positive endings where all three people learn important lessons about love, friendship and respect and end up being friends in the end.
They often end with one person making a choice. For example, the person at the center of the triangle decides to be with one of the suitors. Or it could end with all parties realizing it's too complicated and walking away.
College triangle love stories can end in various ways. One way is that the person in the middle of the triangle might realize they don't actually have strong feelings for either of the other two, and they all go their separate ways. Another possibility is that one of the people outside the relationship gives up and steps aside gracefully. And then there are those times when a new relationship forms between two of the people involved in the triangle, leaving the third person feeling left out but also a chance for them to move on and find someone new.
Often, one person in the triangle is left heartbroken. For example, in 'Romeo and Juliet', Paris is left out as Romeo and Juliet pursue their love and ultimately die together. In some cases, the main character realizes who they truly love and choose that person. Like in 'Pride and Prejudice' Elizabeth chooses Darcy in the end.
Often, one person makes a choice. For example, in some stories, the female lead chooses the guy who she realizes truly loves her and has her best interests at heart.
Often, one person in the love triangle ends up with the main character they are meant to be with. For example, in 'Inuyasha', Inuyasha finally chooses Kagome over Kikyo. Another way is that the character in the middle realizes they don't have romantic feelings for either of the other two in the triangle and decides to be alone or just be friends, like in some less - common storylines.
They can end with one person making a selfless choice. For example, one of the people in the triangle realizes that their friend really loves the person more and steps aside. Another way is that the person who is the center of the triangle chooses one of the two. Sometimes it's a happy ending where the couple stays together, and the other person moves on.
They can end in different ways. Sometimes, all parties involved realize that the situation is too messy and decide to step back. In other cases, the person at the center of the triangle makes a choice. But then the rejected parties may hold grudges. I knew of a love triangle where the woman chose one man, and the other man became so bitter that he spread rumors about the couple. And in some rare cases, the triangle can turn into a polyamorous relationship if all parties are open to it, but that's not very common.
Often, they end with a resolution of some sort. For example, in 'Pride and Prejudice', Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy end up together, while Mr. Wickham is sort of pushed out of the picture. The good - hearted characters usually get their happy endings, while those with bad intentions or who are obstacles in the relationship don't fare as well.
Often, the protagonist makes a clear choice between the two love interests. For example, in some novels, the girl might realize that one guy has been there for her all along and truly understands her, so she chooses him over the other.
Often, the protagonist chooses one of the love interests. For example, in 'Twilight', Bella chooses Edward. This is a common ending as it resolves the central conflict of the love triangle.
Often, the heroine ends up with the 'right' man. For example, in many cases, the man who truly understands her and has a deeper connection wins her heart in the end. So, if there's a rakish character involved in the love triangle, she usually chooses the more honorable and loving one.
Some love stories end in a more bittersweet way. The couple may part ways, but they have grown and learned from the relationship. They might still have love for each other, but they realize that they are better off apart for various reasons, such as different life goals or personal growth directions.
