Look up something called Counterpoint. It's a study and a method of writing a contrasting melody. There are rules and regulations that produce pleasing results when followed. There are rights and wrongs, and though you may break the rules to your own liking (cuz it's your music, right?), there're a lot of good sets of skills to be learned through this subject matter.
Cheers.
