Mad Love: Difference between revisions

 

{{quote|'''Moze''': Why don't you just tell Missy that you're not interested in her?

 

[[All Love Is Unrequited|Unrequited Love]] [[Love Hurts|can hurt.]] ''A lot.'' That is, of course, assuming that the target of all those [[Sickeningly Sweethearts|squishy pink emotions]] is [[Selective Obliviousness|unaware of them]] and the sender [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy|is painfully aware of this.]] Sometimes, though, the roles are reversed. The object of affection not only is perfectly aware of this one-sided crush, but actively tries to tell his erstwhile [[Love Interests]] that he isn't interested. Sometimes ''violently''. The [[Love Interest]], meanwhile, [[Selective Obliviousness|fails to get the very clear message]], to the point that they go past mere [[Clingy Jealous Girl|Clingy Jealous Person]] and become what any sane person would consider a [[Stalker with a Crush]], or a [[Psycho Supporter]] if they honestly mean no harm to the other party and also respect their ideas.

This can happen to people of BOTH genders. It's more common to have females in the role, but it's not unheard of having males playing the part. Only that a female is more likely to be pitied, but a male will frequently become a [[Butt Monkey]].

 

 

{{examples}}

** Ryoga almost qualifies in his pursuit of Akane, he's just smart enough to hide it and take the stalker route instead.

* Nemu Kurotsuchi of ''[[Bleach]]'' puts up with the abuse and humiliation of the sadistic Mayuri Kurotsuchi, her father, because of her love and admiration for him. {{spoiler|And very likely [[Mind Control]], since she's his [[Opposite Gender Clone]]}}

** Considering the blonde hair and the fact that she held a lucrative career before becoming the second Kira makes her seem like an anime version of Harley Quinn (especially considering Harley's new outfit in [[Batman: Arkham Asylum]]).

** Point of interest: previous to seeing him, she wanted to meet Kira who had avenged her parents and maybe work with him, but was also open to killing him if necessary, and remarked "I've got the eyes, so I'm stronger." She also plotted quite coldly and cheerfully at this period to kill Rem because it would be more convenient, even though Rem, unlike Ryuk, had no intention of hurting her. Then she saw Light, fell in love with him, and lost all traces of real personality. For some reason Psycho Boy is irresistible to women, and Psycho Girl is incredibly attractive to shinigami.

** Chrome for Mukuro. Of course Mukuro does seem to love her back in his own twisted way.

* ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]''

** His sister Belarus is quite similar. Lithuania seems to have a crush on her, she agrees to go out with him once... and ten minutes later, she breaks and twists his fingers. Then, she's shown as ''Russia's'' [[Stalker with a Crush]]... Must be [[In the Blood]].

** Belarus and Russia also qualify. He constantly cries, hides, and tells her to "go home!", but that doesn't stop her from literally breaking down his door wanting to "get married, married, married!"
