AFF Cliche. Help?

I haven't read much fanfics on AFF, so I'm curious about the so-called AFF cliche. I'd like to do something about it (not going to tell you guys yet! ;p). I would be very grateful if you guys could contribute some of the common traits on these following cliche topics?

 

 

► General (can be applied to most categories)

Girl is always clumsy.
- The main girl has one good friend.
The guy has to be REALLY obnoxious with one friend being sweet and the others are awful too but the girl never likes the nice one.

 

 

► Arranged Marriage

- The parents are either deceased or non-existant.
- Homeless main character/ living alone.
- Bride/groom don't meet until the wedding
- The bride is innocent and easily flustered
- The groom is a player who has a girl on the side - usually the antagonist, with all the cliché ts (you know: annoying, whiny, ____y, etc.)
- The groom one day observes the bride doing domestic chores and smirks; he comes behind her and starts flirting; the girl blushes horribly; etc., etc.
- The girl has financial trouble.

 

 

► Trainee story

- Sappy background story. 
- A y rival.
- Fall in love with a famous idol from the same/diff company.

 

 

► Amnesia

- Car accidents.
- Traumatic incidents.
- Dead parents.
The amnesiac often regains his/her memory via flashback

 

 

► Living In a House Full of Guys

- Main character is the maid.
Girl's mum remarries a guy who has 7 sons.
They either abuse her or love her (or both???)
- At some point, they fight over whose lap she sits on.
- There's that one brother who isn't enamored with her (yet) who refuses to be impressed - and then she does something cute and he becomes her dark knight or whatever.
- The girl is the little sister/ cousin/ etc. of an idol member.

 

 

► Falling In Love With Kingkas

- Main character is supposedly a nerd wearing glasses and what not, also the top in her class.
- Easy to be bullied.
- The kingka is a jerk.
- Ugly duckling to a pretty swan.
- Queenka : either a y rival or the bestfriend.
- Love triangles: The main either has a guy bestie or the friend of the kingka likes the girl.

 

 

I really hope you guys can help. Feel free to contribute as much as you want! You can suggest other topics as well, like gangster stories, etc.

General - one of them has something to hide and the other wants to discover what that is. I don't know, I find it ridiculous (and cliché) to include that in your description. All of my fun is spoiled. Oh yeah, one of them is almost always a cold person (translate: the guy is the silent, go away from me, mysterious type) and the girl somehow "cracks" that personality. Not the "let's know each other better over the course of a year or so" ...but in an instant or after a few days.
