Correcto

• 公园长椅上，年轻情侣相依相偎，低声诉说着只属于彼此的悄悄话。(On a park bench, a young couple leaned against each other, whispering words that belonged only to the two of them.)
• 这家珠宝店设计了一系列情侣款戒指，成为年轻人表达爱意时最受欢迎的礼物之一。(This jewellery shop designed a range of couple rings, which became one of the most popular gifts among young people expressing their feelings.)

Incorrecto

• 他们是一对情侣朋友 — use 恋人 or 男女朋友 to specify a romantic partner; 情侣 already implies a romantic couple, so adding 朋友 is redundant and creates awkward ambiguity
