You know, like a girl is depressed because she thinks the boy doesn't like here, it's really windy and she goes swimming to forget her sorrow, she gets really far, she nearly drowns but the boy who is not such a great swimmer tries to rescue her, amazingly he does, when they get back to the beach, he faints and she thinks his dead, she realizes he loves her, she begins crying, the tears fall on the boys face, suddenly the boy wakes up, and they declare their love for one another.
Girl drowning, boy rescuing, just like in the Bounty commercial, so my question is, what are the most used love plots in romance novels?

Boy and girl fall in love, but "it can never be" because their families hate each other/they're in different gangs/they're from different social classes/different races/etc. They despair, much angst and anguish, then in the end they get together after all (or die).
Girl loves boy, but thinks he hates her, so she doesn't let him know, finally she slips up somehow and finds out the boy was really in love with her all along (also works the other way around).
Girl and boy are thrown together by circumstances (job/jungle expedition/shipwreck). They spend the whole book hating each others guts, sniping and being huffy with each other. Suddenly, at dramatic climax, they realize they were really in love all along.
Girl and boy have relationship, one of them dumps the other for a sexier/richer/more interesting partner. Other one is heartbroken, but finally dumper comes crawling back, realizing he/she threw away best thing in his/her life and new relationship was really nothing by comparison.
Girl and guy love each other very much. One of them is dying. Much angst and anguish. Finally, one of them either saves the other, or they come to terms with their fate and enjoy what time they have left, or one of them dies and the other despairs.

Rich girl is bored with the rich (or even royal) life. She just wants to be normal. Her father has ironclad plans for her including marrying off rich girl to rich guy. But rich girl meets poor boy and they fall in love. They keep their relationship a secret. But somehow, rich guy and rich girl's father find out. They arrange a marriage for rich guy and girl as soon as possible and lock rich girl up so she wont escape. Poor boy finds out and tries to free rich girl. She fights rich guy but ends up dying and not being able to rescue rich girl. Rich girl finds out and kills herself.
Rich girl and poor boy become inspirations to other lovers.

SOMEONE HAS A PROBLEM AND INSTEAD OF THEM CHANGING THEMSELVES, SOMEONE ELSE THEY 'LOVE' BUT BARELY KNOW, COMES AND MAKES THEM A 'BETTER PERSON'. UH. NOTHING IS ACCOMPLISHED.
