Ladykiller in Love

"Lily: Barney, how can you be in love and still be sleeping with anything that moves? Barney: I'm sorry, I don't follow you. That's like saying, "How can an ant carry twenty times its body weight, but root beer floats are still delicious?" Are the two even related?"

- How I Met Your Mother

The Casanova has scored dozens of women, never showing any real affection for any of them. However, maybe one of the girls is immune to his charms. Maybe he initially hates the girl, but then comes to appreciate her. Or maybe he just starts to see a female friend in a new way.

Basically, the man(whore) genuinely falls in love.

It can be played for quite a lot of angst -- how will the Handsome Lech convince his Love Interest that he's being genuine? Usually this trope either humanizes or defangs the character. A staple for Romantic Comedy. Nine of ten male protagonists in hispanic Telenovelas follow this trope and if the main character of a Chick Flick is male you will see this in action.

Most of the time, the character gives up their perverted ways for love; however, it's becoming more common for them to maintain their flirtatiousness, if toned down for the sake of his girlfriend.

Compare Looking for Love In All the Wrong Places. Can't Act Perverted Toward a Love Interest can result from this.

Literature

 * Kalten in the Tamuli series by David Eddings. Particularly funny is that he can't seem to realize the girl he likes is in love with him. Of course, what with this being a David Eddings series, as soon as said girl finds out, she clears that right up. Expressively.
 * Joe Morelli in the Stephanie Plum series of novels.
 * Spider in Anansi Boys has godlike powers he uses to seduce women by the dozens.

Then he gets picked up by Rose and the Doctor, falls head over heels for the latter and ends up waiting for him to show up again for over one hundred years after they're separated. In the meantime he reworks the Torchwood Foundation from the ground up, removing a lot of the evil "in the Doctor's honour". He also gets madly flustered when trying to ask Ianto on a date in Torchwood and was married at some point.
 * Barney Stinson, quoted above from How I Met Your Mother. Sort of a subversion since he doesn't tone down his promiscuity at all (although he tries) for the sake of his new found love (at least until they actually get together).

 * Though not part of the main storyline, this is the story of Hal and Lois in Malcolm in the Middle. It's really one of the most adorable things: it has been established that Hal was a HUGE player before meeting Lois, and yet afterwards he is so completely in love with and devoted to her that Lois actually feels guilty because she's unable to love him as much as he loves her...and he tells her if she loved him as much as he loved her, they would never leave the bedroom.
 * Jack of Three's Company never fails to show up with a Girl of the Week, until the series finale where he's shown to settle down with his newest girlfriend Vicky.

Yup, the guy's arse over teakettle, all right.

She initially, despite being attracted to him, tells him they'll have to be Just Friends at first because "she needs to be wooed."

Video Games

But in his supports with White Magician Girl Priscilla, when she gently tells him that a relationship between them wouldn't work out due to social status and location, he seems genuinely crushed by the revelation and even breaks down crying for his "Princess". ;-;
 * In a variuation, his supports with his best friend and long-time partner Kent show that he also may have feelings for their common lady of liege, Lyndis. However, he realizes that Kent also is in love with Lyn, and decides to support a relationship between them instead of pursuing Lyndis himself
 * In Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu, Alec is another Chivalrous Pervert who is pretty flirty towards the ladies in Sigurd's army. When he is paired up, though, he becomes quite loyal to his lover and partner.
 * Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer has Gannayev, an abnormally handsome hagspawn Casanova. As you get to know him better, it is revealed that he is unsatisfied with such an existence and is actually looking for "a dream that truly touched" him. Moreover, his cocky over-the-top attitude as well as the Casanova ways are a shield he puts up to mask his inner insecurity and fear of showing people who he really is. Needless to say, given the right treatment he strips away his pretensions and adapts a worshipping lovebird attitude toward the protagonist.
 * Junpei Iori from Persona 3 spends half the game drooling over girls, and, during the game's Beach Episode, makes comments on the female party members' swimsuits that sends Shrinking Violet Fuuka running to hide herself behind someone. Once he truly falls in love, though, he turns out to be a Chivalrous Pervert who (depending on how the story's allowed to unfold) eventually just wants his beloved to be happy.
 * He's also totally devoted to her. In the PSP remake, he's the only male S link the new Gender Flip protagonist can't have a romantic relationship with. Despite the fact that she could finish the S-Link before he even knows of his love interest. Some shippers aren't happy.
 * Ryoji Mochizuki also qualifies as one if you pursue a romantic relationship with him. Despite the fact he's a constant flirt, he tells the female protagonist that she's the only girl he's ever loved after his S link is maxed.
 * Vico's romance arc in A Dance With Rogues. Also possibly gender-flipped with the player character.
 * A possible outcome in Dragon Age for the Depraved Bisexual elf Zevran, if the PC (male or female) can get Zevran's approval meter high enough.
 * Pretty much the whole deal behind Yuushi Oshitari's paths in the Prince of Tennis Dating Sims. Specially in Gakuensai no Oujisama, where the main girl Shizuka even gets to see him get bitchslapped by an old girlfriend.
 * Zidane Tribal, the protagonist of Final Fantasy IX, has this as a major part of his Character Development. He starts out as a fairly open skirt chaser (at the age of 16, no less), but then he falls for Garnet/Dagger, causing some emo-ness to ensue. Of course, in his case, it's made worse by the fact that Garnet's a princess, therefore supposedly not "reachable" for him even if he changes his ways.
 * Derek in RE: Alistair, if you get his ending. He gets bonus points for.

Webcomics

 * Sven from Questionable Content is an interesting example. He appears to give up his womanzing ways because of his friendship with Faye. And then they started sleeping together. It's not a serious, monogamous relationship, but Faye makes it clear that if she finds out he's been sleeping around, she'll leave him in an instant.
 * Bogey of Kid Radd. Sure, he always hits on her (and everyone else) because she's hot, but late into the comic he realizes he's actually fallen for, but only adds to his feelings of utter uselessness because he can plainly see that.
 * Eric of Venus Envy well and truly qualifies. In spite of the creepiness of The Casanova being front and center, he's shown himself to be Above the Influence. He's also not in posession of all the relevant facts.
 * Slick from Sinfest shows genuine love for Monique, but is unable to express it properly. Of course he isn't a real ladykiller, but since he fancies himself one and still pursues the status, it qualifies.
 * Also, Fuchsia is a seductress devil who is showing deep feelings for Criminy.
 * Fox from Boy Meets Boy and Friendly Hostility flirts with Anything That Moves, until he develops a serious interest in his best friend Collin. Collin, fully aware of Fox's lecherous nature, initially refuses to play into his "game" until Fox bluntly tells him, "I'm not kidding around anymore, Collin." The two wind up in a stable and loving relationship that lasts for years, and Fox.
 * Tip Wilkin of Skin Horse has this happen to him in the current story arc when he meets Mad Scientist Tigerlily Jones. He loses his superpower ability to make any woman fall into his bed, and even loses the ability to pick handcuffs with a bobby pin. Don't ask why he would need to.
 * Rod from Out There is genuinely in love with Ari. You'd think it'd be a straight Incompatible Orientation, but it's… much more complicated. He's still sleeping around, but has made it perfectly clear that he'd give it up in a heartbeat if she ever decides she wants him.
 * Wally's philandering ways began well before his marriage to Rebecca, and continued after they were wed; when he quit playing around, however, it seems he quit for good.
 * Steven fell in love with Sherry, and later, Miriam,, but was unable to maintain fidelity to either of them.
 * A rare gender-inversion with Mora towards Minos in Las Lindas.
 * In Girl Genius, Lars.
 * Gil, given his parisian reputation (even if it's unclear whether it was a cover or not).
 * Zii, the resident gleefully bisexual Cute Lech (or amorally perverted sex criminal, depending on who you ask) from Ménage à 3, is headed down this road... without brakes.
 * Joe Rosenthal of the Walkyverse comics, whose defining trait is his blatant sexism and sexual magnetism, falls into this after finding love on an Internet forum and eventually settling into his first monogamous relationship with his crush. However, it would appear that this trope no longer applies to him.
 * The relationship between Sabine and Nale in The Order of the Stick is strongly implied to be a gender-inverted example?
 * Implied? She outright admits that she sleeps around, and feels absolutely no guilt about it.

Western Animation

 * Boomhauer from King of the Hill. He manages to get women crawling all over him, even if they have only just seen him, and actively avoids getting into a serious relationship. But when he does actually fall in love, he gets a cruel and ironic backlash when the woman in question turns out to be using him even more cruelly than he ever used any other woman: she can't get his name right, can't understand half of what he's saying, and tells him, while he's kneeling on her doorstep after proposing to her, that "Actually, whenever you talk, I'm usually just nodding and smiling while waiting for your pants to come off." Can you say "Ouch"?
 * Family Guy pairs this with We Want Our Jerk Back in the episode where Quagmire falls in love with the Griffins' temporary housekeeper.

 * A oneshot character in Pucca is rich, famous, handsome, and has all the Sooga ladies falling for him. He goes after the title character, who is already obsessively in love with Garu. As it always does for anyone getting in Pucca's way of Garu, it does not end well for the ladykiller.
 * Brock Samson from The Venture Brothers has a freakish ability to bed anyone who comes near him, but "the only woman he ever loved" was Molotov Cocktease, a badass Russian assassin who wears a chastity belt. He freely has sex with other women in spite of Molotov though, since even though he loves her, they can't enter into a relationship together. They have a history of personal vendettas which always leads to them both trying to kill one another. The fact she never puts out also might have something to do with it.
 * Alejandro from Total Drama World Tour. He flirted with almost all the female contestants during the third season but ended up falling for Heather.

 * Real Life case: Warren Beatty, aka "Warren Beauty", and his wife Annette Bening.
 * Gene Simmons from Kiss had a reputation of having sex with thousands of women, but is deeply in love with his current companion Shannon Tweed. They even have a pretty stable family with a couple of kids, and finally tied the knot on October 1st, 2011.
