** "Waiting In The Wings" has the prima ballerina and her lover Stefan. They were both part of the same ballet company and had planned to elope together, but a jealous wizard pulled the ballerina out of space and time. She now dances forever for him in a GroundhogDayLoop. [[RunningGag Poor Angel once again gets possessed by the lovers' ghosts]].

** Samantha [=LaRusso=] and Miguel Diaz. She's the daughter of Daniel [=LaRusso=], he's the top student of Johnny Lawrence's at Cobra Kai dojo, a place her dad has ''very personal'' reasons to dislike. Samantha understands full well how poorly her father will likely react to her dating his teenage ArchNemesis' star pupil, so goes to great lengths to conceal the relationship... which means Miguel thinks she's dumping him for Robby Keene, which becomes fact after one bout of AlcoholInducedStupidity. A lot of the drama in season 2 isn't necessarily because of Daniel's rivalry with Johnny, but from Samantha and Miguel each not fully getting over the other while entering into respective rebound relationships with Robby and with Tory Nichols. Then, while attending a party hosted by Moon, Samantha drunkenly kisses Miguel after learning from Aisha how Miguel returned Miyagi's Medal of Honor (which Hawk had stolen). The act is seen by Tory, who decides to pick a fight with Samantha at school. This sets off a full-on karate rumble between the students of Miyagi-Do and Cobra Kai, which ends with Samantha and Miguel in the hospital. Come season 3, they quickly rekindle their romance after Miguel breaks it off with his Cobra Kai friends, who've become more aggressive under [[TyrantTakesTheHelm John Kreese]], and come up with the idea [[EnemyMine to combine their senseis' dojos to take down Kreese]].
** The [=LaRusso=]s actually really like Robby Keene and think he's a great kid, nothing at all like his dad... but he's still Johnny Lawrence's son, and there's still that level of friction in their relationship. Unlike Sam and Miguel, both understand the potential pitfalls of their relationship and ease into revealing it to Sam's parents. Then it comes to a crashing end after Robby cripples Miguel during the school brawl at the end of season 2.

** Robb falls in love with an independent woman from Volantis, but he's bound by a political marriage pact to a Frey daughter he's never even met. He breaks the marriage promise to marry Talisa [[spoiler: and is then lured into a trap where Walder Frey has him, his wife, his mother, and his bannermen slaughtered at the Red Wedding]].

* ''Series/GilmoreGirls'': Rory and Jess.

* ''Series/OneTreeHill'': Lucas Scott and Peyton Sawyer. They were described as being soul mates who were meant to be together by the series creator Mark Schwahn. They had to overcome many obstacles and issues over the course of the series before being able to have their HappyEnding.

*** Caitlin Snow and Ronnie Raymond. The two were happily engaged the night of the Particle Accelerator, that is until the event that caused the core to go into meltdown, in which Ronnie sacrificed himself to try and contain the explosion in the pipeline, sealing himself inside and sending it upwards into the stratosphere, to save Central City, but most of all, to save Caitlin. Though Caitlin thought him dead and entered a near year-long mourning period, in truth Ronnie had merged with another man, Professor Martin Stein, and gained the meta power over fire, though Stein remained the primary personality in Ronnie's body. After Caitlin and her friends at STAR Lab separate the two, their reunion was short-lived, as neither Ronnie nor Stein could survive without the other, and were now hunted by the military. Going on the run, Firestorm, as the two would refer to each other when united, returned in time to help Barry Allen take down his ArchEnemy, the Reverse Flash, and Caitlin and Ronnie finally wed each other. Unfortunately, their married life together only amounted to a couple of hours, as to help Barry close a singularity that could destroy not just Central City, but the world, Ronnie and Stein fused together as Firestorm so they could separate within the Singularity, disrupting the Event Horizon. While Barry was able to save Stein, Ronnie died during the incident due tto being sucked inside, leaving Caitlin a widow, having had to witness the love of her life die not once, but twice.

* ''Series/FirstKill'' is about two teen girls falling in love - except Juliette is a vampire, and Cal is a monster hunter. ''Romeo and Juliet'' is mentioned at various points throughout the story, so they're well aware that they embody the trope. Not to mention, well, "Juliette" is right there in the name.
