He didn't plan Luke and Leia being siblings. Unless he was into incest. There are cut scenes in Empire Strikes Back that show them being romantic with each other. They kiss in the final cut of the film too, but she was just trying to make Han jealous

    I wonder if that was selected as a way to resolve the love triangle once Lucas realized that there's a reason romantic comedies usually make one of the members of love triangles villains, or at least don't let the audience get as close with both competers. Shows/movies that do are instead dramas, which are a completely different tone from the light-hearted romance he was going for.

    Yeah, it seems like it may have been a way to resolve the love triangle. Of course, Harrison Ford almost didn't come back for Return of the Jedi. I wonder if Luke and Leia would have ended up together in that scenario.
