Often, they end sadly. High school is a time of change, and sometimes the couple realizes they're growing in different directions. Or external factors like family moving away or new opportunities in different locations force them apart. It's a bittersweet end where they part ways but still cherish the memories.
Some end happily, with the couple staying together through high school and even beyond. Maybe they go to the same college and continue their relationship.
Often, they end with the main couple getting together. For example, in 'Kaichou wa Maid - sama!', Misaki finally realizes her true feelings for Usui and they end up as a couple.
Some end happily. The bully and the victim fall in love and overcome all the obstacles in their relationship, like dealing with the disapproval of friends or family. They then go on to have a healthy relationship.
Often, they end with the two friends going back to being just normal friends. As they grow up and realize that the benefits part was just a phase.
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.
Most of the time, they just fade away. As kids grow up and move on to different classes or schools, the connection weakens. For example, they might make new friends and gradually forget about their grade school 'love'.
They often end with a bittersweet separation. As students graduate and go their separate ways for college or different career paths, they might have to part ways. Another way they end is by turning into long - term relationships. If the couple is really committed and manages to stay together through the challenges of growing up, they can build a future together.
High school relationships usually end in a few ways. Sometimes it's due to jealousy. If one person is too possessive or if there are rumors of someone else, it can cause a rift. Also, academic pressure can play a part. If one or both partners are really focused on getting good grades and into a good college, they might decide the relationship is a distraction. And then there are those relationships that just fizzle out. There's no big fight or drama, but the feelings gradually disappear over time.
Most real high school love stories don't last. In high school, emotions are intense but often not fully mature. Students may think they are in love just because of the novelty of a relationship or peer pressure. Once they graduate and face the real world, with its responsibilities and new social circles, many relationships fizzle out. But every now and then, you hear of those special high school sweethearts who beat the odds and stay together.
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.
