Historically, romantic storylines treated exclusivity as a social requirement—think Jane Austen or the Brontë sisters, where marriage (the ultimate form of exclusivity) was a matter of economic and social survival.

Post-exclusivity, the storyline changes. The conflict is no longer Will they get together? but Can they build a life? This is where many romantic storylines end, but the most memorable ones (like the Before Sunrise trilogy) continue. Here, exclusivity becomes the backdrop for confronting finances, family, and failure.
