Line 10:
This plot usually has [[An Aesop]] about not forcing others to love you, and many characters who try this regret doing so before long and return wiser to the [[Status Quo Is God]]. If they don't, it usually means they'll do a [[Face Heel Turn]] before long.
 
Compare the [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]], who is violent about keeping their lover. Compare [[All Take and No Give]], where the taker tries to force someone into loving and serving them. See also [[Love Makes You Crazy]]. Relate to [[Happiness Is Mandatory]] and [[Getting Smilies Painted on Your Soul]], where happy emotions are forced on others.

== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* In the backstory material for ''[[Code Geass]]'', {{spoiler|CC, then a young slave}}, who is adorable but has never had a best friend, wishes that everyone would love her. It quickly becomes a [[Be Careful What You Wish For]] tale as she learns that if you force everyone to love you, then none of it will be genuine.

== [[Film]] - [[Western Animation]]Animated ==
* In ''[[The Rescuers (Disney film)|The Rescuers]]'', [[Babysitter From Hell]] Madame Medusa [[lampshade]]s this. Penny might have been willing to accept Medusa as a foster parent if Medusa had not prioritized obtaining the [[MacGuffin]] over Penny's safety.

== [[Western Animation]] ==
* On one episode of ''[[Fairly Oddparents]]'' due to [[Be Careful What You Wish For|Timmy's Wish]], he and Trixie are the only two male and female left on the planet, and although Timmy initially enjoys being with his [[Love Interest]] due to [[Attention Whore|Trixie's attention demanding personality]], she wants Timmy to show her the attention that normally lots and lots of people would give to her, eventually exploding into full-on [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] mode.
* In the ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' episode "The Best Night Ever," Fluttershy tries to get the woodland creatures around the gala to come to her in a [[Friend to All Living Things]] fashion. For some reason they're all scared of her (she usually can get wild animals to flock to her and sing on cue), and she slowly cracks to the point of trying to capture them all, culminating in causing a stampede of wild animals fleeing her in terror and ending with the page quote.
