* ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/35703949 The Sun, The Moon, The Stars in the Sky]]'': [[VideoGame/HenryStickminSeries Henry, Ellie and Charles]] are all madly in love with the other two, but a combination of abandonment issues and [[IDontWantToRuinOurFriendship not wanting to lose the other two if they say anything]] causes all three to assume that the other two doesn't want them in that way.

* This pops up in ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'' on the few occasions that [[Characters/MiraculousLadybugAdrienAgreste Adrien Agreste]] and [[Characters/MiraculousLadybugMarinetteDupainCheng Ladybug]] are shown to interact. Since the series' [[TwoPersonLoveTriangle Love Square]] consists of Marinette (aka Ladybug) crushing on the oblivious Adrien while Chat Noir (aka Adrien) carries a torch for Ladybug, this particular combination of personas leaves both a blushing mess.

* In the episode "Escaping Expulsion" of ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'', while [[Characters/TheOwlHouseAmityBlight Amity Blight]] had developed a crush on her much earlier on in the series, [[Characters/TheOwlHouseLuzNoceda Luz Noceda]] had only just discovered her own feelings for Amity, and the two share a very telling moment with this trope during their BackToBackBadasses pose and in a few follow up episodes. However, since neither are capable of doing more than [[CrushBlush blushing]] and [[GibberishOfLove stammering incoherently]] around each other, it takes quite awhile for any momentum to occur on a potential RelationshipUpgrade. [[spoiler: It takes [[ShipperOnDeck Hooty's intervention]] in "Knock, Knock, Knockin' on Hooty's Door" for them to finally have a mutual LoveConfession (hilariously, Amity impulsively interrupts Luz's attempt to ask her out to ask first), and they remain a couple for the rest of the series.]]

* Julia and Ran from ''Manga/StrawberryShakeSweet'': they're [[GirlsLove both girls]] and each assumes that the other is straight, so they spend a good chunk of the manga orbiting each other in an increasing spiral of UnresolvedSexualTension.

* ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'': Cloud has always had a crush on Tifa since childhood, but he was too shy to even get close with her. When the two reunite in Midgar years later, it is made apparent that his feelings are reciprocated, but Tifa, seeing Cloud now being a wreck of a man who sprouts some nonsense memories of being a SOLDIER, is scared off from confessing it, fearing it will send him over the edge. As a result, the two spend most of the game refraining from acting on their feelings for each other, and it takes Cloud being sent to an AngstComa for Tifa to finally make the move.

* On ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice,'' ComicBook/{{Superboy}} and [[NaiveNewcomer M'Gann]] can be interpreted as one example of this. WordOfGod suggests that [[FragileSpeedster Wally]] and [[TheArcher Artemis]] are even more so, despite both always acting tough or flirtatious (toward other people) to cover it.

*** Again in "Act Your Age". [[spoiler: Phineas developed feelings for Isabella in high school but was convinced he was in the "friend zone" and Isabella had given up on him ever recognizing her feelings so neither of them said or did anything. After a [[TearJerker soul-crushing]] duet about [[ForWantOfANail what might have been]], Phineas ends up [[RaceForYourLove chasing after her car]] and they share TheBigDamnKiss.]]

** Candace and Jeremy seem to be a canon example, though for a long time it was hard to tell if Jeremy even liked her back. Season two made it a bit more obvious that he was nervous around her, with the episode "Nerdy Dancing" specifically switching their usual dynamic (''he'' was trying to impress ''her'' rather than the other way around).
