Well, for one, the way the characters meet can be very different. For example, in some stories, they might meet during a life - threatening situation like in 'Life of Pi' where the relationship forms in the most extreme circumstances. Also, the nature of their relationship can be bold. It could be a relationship that goes against society's norms, like in 'Brokeback Mountain' where it's a same - sex relationship in a time when it was not widely accepted.
Unconventional settings can also play a part. If a love story is set in a post - apocalyptic world, like in 'The Road', the way the characters love and depend on each other is different from a typical love story. Their love is more about survival and basic human connection in the harshest of environments. And the way the story unfolds, not following the normal plot lines of boy - meets - girl, fall - in - love - easily kind of thing. It might have a lot of twists and turns, like in 'Gone Girl' where the relationship is full of secrets and unexpected revelations.
The characters themselves can be a big factor. If they have very unique personalities or behaviors. For instance, in '500 Days of Summer', Summer doesn't believe in true love in the traditional sense, and Tom has to deal with this non - traditional view of love. Their relationship is a bold exploration of different perspectives on love. Also, the emotions involved can be more complex and not just the simple, pure love. There could be a mix of love and hate, like in 'Wuthering Heights' where the love between Heathcliff and Catherine is so intense and full of contradictions that it's a very unconventionally bold love story.
