Why is "a guy meets a girl" so popular in literature?

It's a hugely important part of life for 40% of the population.

This pic reminds me that one of the reasons I hate niggers is that they drag each other down like this, perpetuating the thug culture that so fits a race of mindless apes without a shred of self-reflection

Because in most cases it is the most exciting thing to happen to everyday people and fictions first priority is to make readers identify with characters which is best done by manipulating that link. Its also a very marketable trope because glorifies those common human relationships to something more than they would otherwise be.

Because only two important things happen in life:

a) People die

BUT

b) People have children, so humanity goes on

That's it. That's everything.

That's why only two things really matter, sex and death. "Boy meets girl" is sex. Classical tragedy is death. Everything else is an offshoot of one of those two things.
