Sometimes this trope comes into play after a couple has broken up, with one side having convinced herself that she's over him, until seeing her ex with a vixen causes her to gnash her teeth.
If one partner ''isn't'' in denial and deliberately stages such an incident to make the other jealous and admit her feelings, he's pulling an [[Operation: Jealousy]].

* ''[[Super Robot Wars]]'' games plays with this trope and [[Mazinger Z|Kouji Kabuto]]. Kouji in ''[[Mazinger Z]]'' has [[Love Interest]] in the form of Sayaka. Kouji also appears in ''[[UFO Robo Grendizer]]'', where he has another [[Love Interest]], Maria Grace. Both of them are [[Tsundere|Tsunderes]].

* ''[[Valkyria Chronicles]]'' plays with this trope when dealing with Welkin and Alicia. Welkin's mannerisms and (for the lack of a better word) obsession with nature put Alicia off in the early going, but as the game progresses, she begins to appreciate how Welkin's knowledge gets them out of rough situations.
