Line 14:
* This is exactly what happens to Ranma in the climax of the ''[[Ranma ½]]'' manga, where it's deliberately left ambiguous whether his declaration of love for Akane was internal or external. She reacts as though it was the latter, though.
* In ''[[Shaman King]]'' this happens with Hao as the Mind Reader. {{spoiler|With Anna too, before she lost that power.}}
* In episode 17 of "[[Ouran High School Host Club]]", this happens to Haruhi when she wonders how Tamaki and Kyouya compliment each other so well. Kyouya, being the Shadow King that he is, repeats back her pondering almost word for word.

** [[Forgotten Realms|Siege of Darkeness]], perhaps?
* There is a novel that I cannot remember the title of myself that subverts and then pokes fun at this trope. A female character can read minds through some [[It Makes Sense in Context|genetic defect]], and she's turned off all men because of it. However, in the story her fiancé is a French Canadian. He apparently thinks in French, thus she cannot understand him. When she asks him what his first thought of her was when he met her, he says "nice ass". They have a laugh about it.
* Robin Wednesbury of ''[[The Stars My Destination]]'' is a reverse telepath, a telesend, who has to constantly worry that others are hearing what she thinks.

* ''[[The Inexplicable Adventures of Bob]]--'' [http://bobadventures.comicgenesis.com/d/20100907.html Riboflavin realizes Bob has overheard his tragic origin story.]
* This is the classic trope for ''[[Think Before You Think]]''. It happens numerous times, but especially [http://thinkbeforeyouthink.net/?comic=20090822-think-before-you-think here].
