So Bob's got a crush on Alice. We've seen him [[JustFriends looking at her longingly]], or heard him saying how good-looking she is. But Alice isn't all that keen on Bob. He may have asked her out and been turned down before, or she may be in a relationship. Or they may be together, and Bob's waiting to take it to the next level, but Alice's waiting for the right time.

But now, there's something different. Now Alice wants sex with Bob, and she wants it now! Maybe she's drunk, drugged, or under [[LoveIsInTheAir some other influence]]. [[SexForSolace Maybe she's broken up and on the rebound]], or wants to [[OperationJealousy make another guy jealous]]. Bob's dream has come true!

Only Bob knows that it wouldn't be right. He politely (and often insistently) declines her offer, pointing out that it would be wrong to take advantage of her like this. He often tells her this while she's coming onto him, often in a near-predator manner.

Bob will often then feel bad for possibly hurting a girl's feelings and may get some mocking from people he tells. Occasionally, though, Alice will thank him for being so noble and drop hints that he's actually an OK guy. Sometimes they get it together after this little talk.

This is almost always a guy refusing a girl because on TV, [[AManIsAlwaysEager men refusing sex]] is almost unthinkable. Also note that if the character had slept with the intoxicated person, it might be considered [[RapeAsDrama rape]], depending on the level of intoxication.

This trope comes in when something changes. Now Alice wants sex with Bob and she wants it now! Maybe she's drunk, drugged, or under [[LoveIsInTheAir some other influence]].

Changed line(s) 23,26 (click to see context) from:

* In the ''Manga/AhMyGoddess'' chapter "Belldandy's Tempestuous Heart", where a mismade love potion has Belldandy doing everything short of ripping off her clothes and shouting, "Take me now!" at Keiichi, he keeps her off because she's [[NotHimself not acting like the girl he fell in love with]].
** This was adapted into the anime episode ''Ah! Please don't look at me like that!'' in the first season. He doesn't know what caused the change, but still refrains; you gotta respect that.
*** Future events have revealed [[spoiler:his ability to resist may also have to do with the Ultimate Force suppressing his sexual drive]].
* In ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'', Ryouga forcefully rejects a female Ranma's amorous advances after the latter was bewitched by a "Fishing Rod of Love." Ryouga, being Ranma's rival (and, often, enemy) is thoroughly freaked out by this, and when push comes to shove, he even goes as far as to attempt to bury Ranma deep in the woods to get her to stop (but can't actually do it anyway).
