== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* At least one ''[[Love Hina]]'' fan was ''very'' happy that Keitaro ended up with Naru instead of [[Hot Chick
* More than one ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'' fan has admitted to shipping England with other characters so that they can have [[Adorkable|America]] all to themselves. Or wanting to be the one to make [[Jerkass Woobie|Russia]] feel better. Or pretending that [[Chivalrous Pervert|Greece]] and/or [[Boisterous Bruiser|Turkey]] aren't interested in Japan. And since virtually every APH character is the target of [[Perverse Sexual Lust]] for a number of fans, these cases are almost certainly not the only ones out there in the fandom.
Line 28:
* People of both sexes did not want Ross and Rachel on ''[[Friends]]'' to be together, so they could have that couple for themselves.
* ''[[X-Files]]'': Why do you think people were so happy that Mulder and Scully held out for so long?
* The ''[[
** Some because they want the Doctor to themselves, but probably more because throughout most of the series' long run the Doctor has been [[No Hugging, No Kissing|seemingly asexual]], and [[Status Quo Is God]].

* This happens in the ''[[Supernatural (TV series)|Supernatural]]'' fandom with the fans who aren't [[Bro Yay|Wincesters]]. This is why Jo had such a backlash in Season 2 and had to be written out.

** While it's only prevalent within the hardcore shippers of these [[Mass Effect]] pairings, there ''are'' people out there who are ''vehemently'' opposed to pairing Garrus, Tali, Thane and Liara with anyone else besides Shepard (fitting the trope, as Shepard -male and female- is a vehicle for the player). Garrus and Tali actually do pair up in the third game if both are still available.
** Similarly in ''[[Dragon Age 2]]'', Fenris and Isabela can develop a friends-with-benefits relationship in Act 3, provided that Hawke has shut down both their romances by that point (either by picking the broken heart option or by romancing Merrill/Anders instead). Needless to say, this led to a lot of hate for Isabela from certain crazed Fenris fans.
