* [[Ranma One Half½|Ryouga Hibiki]] does this all the time, pretending that various random objects are Akane in order to practise asking her out and/or confessing his love for her. He doesn't seem to mind (or notice) the way people stare.
** Ranma himself also does this from time to time, often to indulge his ego as he imagines the other party's response. Invariably, Akane is always there to catch the tail-end of it, making him backpedal and either deny everything, or try (and fail, badly) to reuse the dialogue.
* The ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' chapter where [[Shrinking Violet|Nodoka]] confesses her feeling to Negi began with this. Close-up of Negi seemingly asking what she wants. Close-up of Nodoka requesting him to spend the free activity day together with her. Wide-area shot showing Nodoka practicing in front of a Negi bobble-head in her room.
Line 79:
* ''[[Dominic Deegan]]'' used both kinds in one strip. Dominic's defensive justifications for his actions are revealed to have been aimed at his cat Spark instead of his girlfriend Luna. (Actually, the cat understood, but he just didn't care.) Also, Nimmel's [[Rousing Speech]] to himself in a mirror is revealed to have been overheard by Luna.
** Both kinds were also used earlier, when Szark Sturtz poured his heart out to what was revealed to be a Dominic doll -- and then Jayden revealed that she'd been standing nearby and heard the whole thing.
* Used in ''[[Sabrina Online (Webcomic)|Sabrina Online]]'' when Zig-Zag appears to be telling Sabrina how she really feels... only to finish with, "I also wonder how hard it would be to tell you this while you're awake."
* A confession of love somewhere in ''[[Narbonic]]''.
* [http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0402.html This strip] of ''[[Order of the Stick]]''. Used again, [http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0527.html more recently], and rather heartbreakingly.
