'''Wayne:''' I say hurl. If you blow chunks and she comes back, she's yours. But if you spew and she bolts, it was never meant to be.|Pearls of wisdom from ''[[Waynes World]]''}}

Exaggeration of the nervousness and discomfort one feels at approaching someone cute to the point that they become physically sick (major turnoff). If the character is lucky, they might find the one person who doesn't trigger the reaction. Compare [[Love Makes You Crazy]], [[Does Not Like Men]] ([[He Man Woman Hater|or women]]), and [[Chaste Hero]].

Oddly, this is not automatically a [[Comedy Tropes|Comedy Trope]]. Or an anime trope, but it's used far more there.

Compare [[Cannot Talk to Women]].

== Anime and Manga ==

* Xellos from [[Slayers]] is allergic to, in addition to love, any and all positive emotions.

* ''[[Ah My Goddess (Manga)|Ah My Goddess]]'': Keiichi tries to ask Belldandy out to a museum, and gets so nervous that she immediately diagnoses him with a terrible illness. [[Hilarity Ensues|And acts accordingly.]]

* ''[[Ah! My Goddess (Manga)|Ah My Goddess]]'': Keiichi tries to ask Belldandy out to a museum, and gets so nervous that she immediately diagnoses him with a terrible illness. [[Hilarity Ensues|And acts accordingly.]]

* Alex Treveney from Nightschool: The Weirn Books. If she says that she likes or loves something, it will explode.

* Sunako from ''[[Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge]]''. She completely freaks out, nosebleeds to the point of hemorrhage and passes out whenever she sees "bright creatures." In a slight subversion, this applies to females as well as males, but is usually centered on her [[Bishounen]]...housemates.

Line 56:

** Speaking of Elliot, she also has been known to throw up when she's nervous- one notable occasion occurring in front of her ex-boyfriend Sean, when his incredibly hot new girlfriend shows up out of the blue.

* An early episode of ''[[Northern Exposure]]'' had Chris struck dumb by meeting a beautiful woman. This prompted many of the citizens of the town to reflect that they felt sick when they met their partner; the one man that felt happy was dumped by his girlfriend 3 weeks later.

* Played with in ''[[~~Noahs~~ Arc]]''. At the start of one episode Ricky looks unusually pale, and Noah askes if hes sick. Ricky says he thinks hes "falling in love", implied to be thinking about Junito, and then passes out. He wakes up later in a hospital (come to find out, it was a Staph infection).
