Twice Shy: Difference between revisions

* Kiri and Elraine from ''[[Double Arts]]''. She's too shy and thinks he's clueless about her feelings, and he's convinced that the boost in sexual tension caused by confessing to her would make life trapped together too awkward.

* Julia and Ran from ''[[Strawberry Shake Sweet]]''.

* Kind of exists between Kenichi and Miu of ''[[Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple]]''. It's slightly subverted in that they're very good friends, but Kenichi is too nervous to take it to a romantic level, and Miu is incredibly jealous of any other girls who hang around with Kenichi, but she doesn't take the initiative either. Also a case of [[Everyone Can See It]], as all of the masters are totally aware of it, and are watching to see what will happen.

* In ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]'', Sōsuke and Kaname fit this trope to the "T" -- ''especially'' later on. Kaname has problems taking on the aggressive role of romantically pursuing Sōsuke (as she's shown to constantly be waiting for Sōsuke to take the initiative, and is constantly disappointed when she finds out she misunderstood his actions as being romantic advances). And Sōsuke... has ''huge'' [[Asexuality|issues with romantic intimacy]]. He's shown to become very nervous when confronted with anything "inappropriate" and too sexual, and has a tendency to clam up or run away. The most he appears to be able to muster with Kaname is to shyly hold her hand, which results in some highly frustrating [[Will They or Won't They?]].
