Line 103:
* Similar to the above example, Ricky of ''[[Noah's Arc]]'' once he falls in love with Junito (he considers breaking his promiscuous ways, but it never pans out for long.
* Owen Harper of ''[[Torchwood (TV)|Torchwood]]'', the series' [[Kavorka Man]], falls for a 1950s aviatrix who slips through a rift in time and, after a week-long affair and Owen's stumbling confession of love, flies right back through the rift and out of his life.
* Jack Harkness counts as this - beginning as a character in ''[[
* Barney Stinson, quoted above from ''[[How I Met Your Mother]]''. Sort of a subversion since he doesn't tone down his promiscuity at all (although he tries) for the sake of his new found love (at least until they actually get together).
* Joey on ''[[Friends]]'' had a brief thing for Rachel. However, it really started back when the girls practically threw one of his girls of the week at him and he realized what the rewards of a relationship could be.
Line 131:
** In "Duets", Artie breaks off his pairing with Brittany when he thinks she seduced him just so he would sing with her. Turns out her affection was genuine after all.
** Noah "Puck" Puckerman, having dated Quinn, Rachel, Mercedes, Santana and half the Cougars in Lima, finds himself falling head over heels, to the point of joining Celibacy Club because he wants to be less of an "I'm a Man I can't help it" type guy, for Lauren Zizes, President of the AV club and only girl on the school's wrestling team, because she's as much of a [[Badass]] as him. She initially, despite being attracted to him, tells him they'll have to be [[Just Friends]] at first because "she needs to be wooed." And Puck - who formerly couldn't even get through an evening with Quinn without sexting Santana - is okay with this arrangement. In short - we have one Casanova who's found a love match!
* ''[[ER]]'''s Doug Ross. Established from the first episode as a grade-A womanizer. . .who was desperately in love with [[Hello, Nurse!|Carol Hathaway]].
* Simon from ''[[Combat Hospital (TV)|Combat Hospital]]'' who grew to have quite serious feelings for Rebecca in the first season after starting off as [[Dr. Jerk]] [[The Casanova]] with a [[Girl of the Week]] or two.
* Lee Stetson/Scarecrow of ''[[Scarecrow and Mrs. King]]'' gradually abandons his womanizing ways over the course of the series as he falls for (and eventually marries) Amanda King
