->''"If I were to say s----something apologetic... it would reflect my feelings in the matter... accurately."''
-->-- '''Valentine''', ''Film/MirrorMask''

Talking can be hard, especially if you're speaking from the heart. Of course, this tendency is often played up in fiction to the point where characters find themselves unable to even say a particularly emotionally charged word or phrase, often an apology or declaration of love. This may be because it goes against the [[MenDontCry character's self-image,]] or simply because they're [[ShrinkingViolet shy in general.]] This trait in {{Anime}} is most commonly associated with the {{Tsundere}} (particularly Type A) and the {{Dandere}}.

[[folder:Anime and Manga]]
* In omake materials for ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'', [[spoiler:Homura]] finds herself unable to write a Valentine card because [[WordOfGod she overthinks her feelings]].
* ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'':
** In the manga version of the Shinnosuke/Ryugenzawa story arc, Ranma is hit with a ''severe'' case of this when, for once, he's trying to be nice to Akane and speak from his heart, and he's utterly frustrated that he can't say a single word.
** When Ranma deeply hurts Akane's feelings in the Battle Dogi arc, he tries to apologize to her and sincerely say that he thought she looked cute. He stutters on "cute" for a while, before finally just screaming it in frustration. Much to his dismay, she thinks he's lying when he finally manages to get the word out.

[[folder:Comics]]
* Jon in ''ComicStrip/{{Garfield}}'' has a really serious case of this. He can't even say it when his LoveInterest is not present!
* ''ComicBook/SonicTheComic'': In issue #76, when Porker Lewis quits the Freedom Fighters, Sonic is angry at him, [[WordOfGod Nigel Kitching]] explains in a forum post that this was "because he didn't want Porker to go - not because he despised him for his cowardice but because he was just so desperate for Porker to stay. It's just Sonic's inability to express his feelings get him so screwed up."
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Fan Works]]
* ''Fanfic/ChildOfTheStorm'' has Harry unable to spit out his LoveConfession to [[spoiler: Carol]] thanks to this, and he instead resorts to saying [[Film/ThePrincessBride "as you wish"]]. Being a PopCulturedBadass, she figures it out very quickly - and is just as tongue-tied herself. Given that both have issues with emotional openness, this isn't surprising.
* When Sephiroth tries to apologize to Cloud for [[TraumaButton triggering him]] and instigating a fight in ''FanFic/TheFifthAct'', he's at a loss for what to do because he's never had to [[NeverMyFault apologize for anything]].
* In the [[Fanfic/{{Cinderjuice}} Contractually Obligated Chaos series]], WesternAnimation/{{Beetlejuice}} can't handle any kind of emotional speech, although he and the object of his affections work out a suitable IUhYouToo that serves the purpose. It's eventually clarified that he is literally physically incapable of expressing emotions in words, at least most of the time. As the MrExposition of the series says, "The more he feels, the less he articulates."
* In the ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition'' AU story ''Fanfic/BeyondHeroes'', Varric has this as one of his issues. More specifically, he has issues with the word 'love' in a romantic sense, since TheFirstCutIsTheDeepest.
* ''Fanfic/DuranAndKiyohimesOmakeTheater'': Natsuki has a bit of difficulty expressing her feelings to Shizuru. In Chapter 92. she tries to write a poem for Shizuru. Shizuru is flattered by the mere effort, but Natsuki is flustered and embarrassed. She ends up going on a rant about Shizuru's teasing, and how romantic gestures always come easily to her while Natsuki always messes up saying [[AnguishedDeclarationOfLove "I love you"]]
--> '''Shizuru''': ''You didn't just then.''
* ''Fanfic/OlivesLastPartner'':
** Oscar is rendered speechless when Olive tops off her NotSoFinalConfession to him and [[BrokenTears breaks down crying]] onto his shoulder. Once he remembers Otto's tenth birthday party and how he hid under the table to avoid answering Otto's question of whom Olive's last partner is, he snaps out of it and decides to answer her with his own NotSoFinalConfession.
** In Chapter 5, Oscar tries to tell Olive that what he said in the Boiler Room was completely genuine, but he can't muster up the ability to form a coherent sentence and keeps cutting himself off out of nervousness. Lucky for him, he doesn't have to finish, as Olive understands what he's saying and tells him that she too spoke from the heart.
** After the events of "Skip Day", with Otto rescuing a sick Olive from skydiving out of a plane without a parachute and falling to her death, Olive explains to Oscar what happened when she becomes cured of the Skips thanks to Oscar speeding up the time in the lab's quarantine room. He's so taken aback by the fact that Olive nearly died that he can't form a single word and finds himself hugging her tightly instead.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Film]]
* In ''Film/CharlieAndTheChocolateFactory'', Johnny Depp's Willy Wonka has extreme difficulty with words such as "parent", "family", "mother", or "father". But, [[FridgeLogic weirdly]], not "mom and dad."
* The Collector in ''Film/DemonKnight'' tries to propose to Jeryline. His attempts are hampered by his complete inability to say the word "love".
* Otto from ''Film/AFishCalledWanda'' has this problem with "sorry." (At least when he's not actually sorry: When he beats the living crap out of Archie after mistaking him for a burglar, he says "sorry" very easily.)
* Sam from ''Film/Ghost1990'' can only say "ditto" instead of "I love you." [[spoiler:Inverted in the end, when he's the one who says "I love you" to Molly when he departs to the afterlife and she replies with "ditto".]]
* Simon from ''Film/LoveSimon'', after learning that Martin is blackmailing him, asks if Martin’s going to tell everyone that he’s gay -- but can’t even say that he’s gay. He just stutters over it before amending it to leaking his emails.
-->'''Simon:''' What if I say no, Martin? I mean, w-what are you gonna do? Gonna tell the whole school that I'm g-g-g— You're gonna leak my emails?
* Valentine in ''Film/MirrorMask'' is incapable of saying "sorry", even when [[spoiler: he's apologizing to the heroine after betraying her]]. In fact, he's been unable to patch up his relationship with his tower (don't ask) for some time, because they had a fight once and "Valentines never apologize." However, when it becomes a matter of life and death, he is able to overcome his pride and say sorry. When [[spoiler:we finally meet [[AndYouWereThere Other Valentine]]]], he apologizes quite freely for things like accidentally bumping into people.
** This also applies to Helena, who can't bring herself to actually apologize after [[IWishedYouWereDead being rude to her mother.]] It is quite notable that the "Get Well Soon" card she gives has a drawing of [[spoiler: Valentine's tower on it.]]
* ''Film/TheVillage2004'': Lucius has the hardest time sharing his feelings for Ivy, but when he does, he spits it out.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Literature]]
* In the Literature/{{Discworld}} novel ''Literature/TheFifthElephant'', Angua's werewolf parents have trouble with the syllable "vet". This makes diplomacy with the Ankh-Morpork patrician Lord Vetinari very difficult.
* Felix from ''Literature/DoctrineOfLabyrinths'' finds apologizing painful to the point where he [[GaggingOnYourWords gags on his words]]. On one memorable occasion, when he forces himself to apologize to his brother, he's described looking like he's barely suppressing a screaming [[SpoiledBrat tantrum]]. People are so used to him making vague non-apologies that when he says he's sorry for real, they are [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness visibly dumbstruck]], but it only really happens when he's done something [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone so heinous]] he has no choice, or when he's having [[SanitySlippage a mental breakdown]].
* At the end of the novelization of ''Film/TheFugitive'', Kimble tries to express his gratitude to Gerard, realizing that Gerard now knows that he's innocent and will be his ally in proving this, but finds himself unable to speak.
* The focus of the poem ''[[http://littleblueraccoon.deviantart.com/art/i-gave-up-on-trying-to-write-about-you-424097890 i gave up on trying to write about you]]'' is the author trying to express the depth of her romantic feelings, and failing completely; everything she can think of is either cliched or sounds stupid. In the end, she gives up, saying simply:
-->''maybe i'll just cut the crap''\\
''and let you know that''\\
''i love you.''
* ''Literature/SixOfCrows'': Kaz ''cannot'' tell Inej how he feels, sometimes opting to say ridiculous things like telling her that crows have no manners because she's taken his breath and train of thought. But he can't say ''that,'' of course!
-->'''Wylan''': Why won't he just say he wants her back?
-->'''Jesper''': You've met Kaz, right?
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
* In ''Series/TheAdventuresOfSuperman'' episode "[[Recap/TheAdventuresOfSupermanS1E21TheHumanBomb The Human Bomb]]", ComicBook/JimmyOlsen has a difficult time saying "I love you" to his girlfriend.
-->'''Jimmy''': Miriam, I may not be able to keep our date tonight. No, not the next night either. Maybe never -- but I want you to know...Miriam, you know what I mean.
* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'': Giles can't form the words to ask Jenny out, but has no trouble with words like 'amenable' and 'indecorous'.
* Multiple examples of this trope are mixed in with the thick BelligerentSexualTension between Castle and Beckett in ''Series/{{Castle|2009}}''. Some are almost painful to watch.
-->'''Castle:''' If--if ''anything'' happens to her... it... ''[sighs]''\\
'''Martha:''' ''[his mother]'' Go on.\\
'''Castle:''' I-I...\\
'''Martha:''' Oh, Richard, Richard. For a man who makes a living with words, you sure have a hell of a time finding them when it counts.
* Sam and Diane on ''Series/{{Cheers}}'' encounter a similar problem. Although, Sam actually has no trouble saying the word "love" ... except when he ''means'' it.
* In ''Series/TheColbertReport'' parody of Creator/BillOReilly's "We'll do it live!" outburst, Stephen's rage is triggered by having to read out the words "I'm sorry".
* ''Series/{{Community}}'' does this with Annie. She interrupts Troy and Randi's date to tell Troy she has feelings for him.
-->'''Annie:''' ''NO!'' Before you two proceed, I have one thing to say.\\
''[long pause]''\\
'''Troy:''' ...Did you... say it already?
* Fonzie on ''Series/HappyDays'' and his difficulties with the words "Love" and "Sorry," as well as the phrase "I was wrong."
* In the ''Series/LawAndOrderUK'' episode following Alesha Philip's rape, her friend and co-worker DS Matt Devlin tries to chat with her and ask how she's doing, only to end up stumbling over his words. This is very significant considering how easily he flirted with her beforehand.
* In the ''Series/{{Leverage}}'' episode "The Double Blind Job", Parker, who often has trouble in social situations, can't quite bring herself to tell Hardison that she has feelings for him, and ends up blurting out "I have feelings for... pretzels." Unusually for this trope, Hardison knows exactly what she really means, and responds, "They're right here when you want them." This is later used as a cute CallBack when, after defusing a bomb, she tells him that she is in the mood for pretzels.
* Maynard G. Krebs, a beatnik in ''Series/TheManyLovesOfDobieGillis'', cannot bring himself to say the word "job." He also reacts with a terrified yelp to the word "work".
* Al on ''Series/MarriedWithChildren,'' according to Peggy, has difficulty saying certain things, like "I love you", "thank you," and "look out, there's a car coming."
* In ''Series/NedsDeclassifiedSchoolSurvivalGuide, Guide to: Bad Habits'', Ned's bad habit was his inability to say no.
* In ''Series/PressGang'', Lynda and Spike are unable to bring themselves to say 'love' to each other and end up resorting to anagrams, declaring "I vole you".
* In one episode of ''Series/{{Psych}}'', Shawn, inspired by a case he's working on, asks his father Henry that if he were dying and had only a few seconds to get a message to Shawn, what would it be? Henry admits that there is something he would want to say, but he spends so much time tap-dancing around it that Shawn gets fed up and leaves. It's only after Shawn is out of earshot that Henry admits that the message would be "I love you".
** Later, after [[spoiler:Henry]] has been shot and is unconscious, Shawn sits by [[spoiler:his]] hospital bed and says:
--->'''Shawn:''' I appreciate what you do...not always how you do it, but, you know, what you do is good. And I just--I don't think now is a good time for you to go, okay? That's all. And I love you...r french toast.
* In ''Series/RedDwarf'', Kryten has a similar, but opposite, problem. His programming means he readily apologises or admits fault, but leaves him incapable of calling Rimmer a sme... a smee... a smee heee...
* David Rose from ''Series/SchittsCreek'' has a hard time apologizing in general and only really does so when he can't avoid it, but he finds it actively ''impossible'' to say the words "I'm sorry" to his sister Alexis (probably due to SiblingRivalry) even when he clearly knows he's in the wrong. He has to be practically forced by Patrick into apologizing to her, and even then he does it in the vaguest way possible.
-->'''David''': I might have overreacted...and for that I am apologetic.
-->'''Alexis''': So...you're ''sorry?''
-->'''David''': I am remorseful...over an action...I participated in.
* Minor subversion: On ''Series/SportsNight'', Danny finds himself incapable of pronouncing the name of tennis player Yevgeny Kafelnikov and, convinced that he's suffering some kind of nervous breakdown, races to his psychologist where he actually has a breakthrough. Nevertheless, his psychologist points out that Yevgeny Kafelnikov is simply a very difficult name to say.
* In the ''Series/StargateAtlantis'' episode "[[Recap/StargateAtlantisS03E04Sateda Sateda]]", while the two of them are on a mission to rescue Ronon, Sheppard tries to tell Teyla how much he cares about his friends but is so uncomfortable with it that she has to fill in words like "feelings" and "family" for him.
-->'''Sheppard:''' Look, Teyla. I'm not really good at, uh... ''[pause]'' Actually, I'm -- I'm terrible at expressing... I don't know what you'd call it, uh...\\
'''Teyla:''' Feelings?\\
'''Sheppard:''' Yeah, sure, OK. The point is, I don't really have good, uh...\\
'''Teyla:''' [[NoSocialSkills Social skills.]]\\
'''Sheppard:''' Well, that is why I enjoyed flying choppers in the most remote part of my world before all this craziness happened, but, uh, you should know, I don't have, uh...\\
'''Teyla:''' Friends?\\
''[Sheppard looks at her indignantly]''\\
'''Sheppard:''' No, I have friends. ''[long pause]'' You, Elizabeth, Ronon, Carson, even Rodney, are the closest thing I have to a...\\
'''Teyla:''' A family?\\
'''Sheppard:''' ''[nodding]'' I'd do anything... for any one of you. If I had to give up my life the way Ronon was going to, I would.\\
''[Sheppard starts to walk away]''\\
'''Teyla:''' Thank you... for everything you ''meant'' to say.
* Damon Salvatore of ''Series/TheVampireDiaries'' has a problem with apologies under certain circumstances - he ''is'' willing to apologise on his own terms, but when another character requests or demands an apology from him, he rudely refuses, no matter how far in the wrong he is or how much trouble he could save himself and others by just giving in. Klaus Mikaelson is even worse - he is almost never able to make a sincere and non-sarcastic apology, even when he clearly wants to. At one point he basically admits that he wishes he knew how to make other people forgive him, but that he doesn't really know how to go about it.
* ''Series/TheWildWildWest'': Artemus Gordon practically makes his living at never being lost for words. However, when it comes to asking a girl he loves to marry him in "The Night of the Big Blast," he just can't get it out.

[[folder:Puppet Shows]]
* Throughout ''Franchise/TheMuppets'' franchise, Kermit has had difficulty expressing how he feels about Miss Piggy. She calls him out on this in ''Film/TheMuppets2011'' when he's unable to say that he missed her or that he needs her. He's finally able to by the end of the film. In ''Film/MuppetsMostWanted'', when everyone is trying to figure out which frog is Kermit and which one is Constantine, [[SpotTheImposter she decides to find out by asking the both of them if they will marry her.]] Constantine just says of course whereas the real Kermit hesitates. Piggy immediately knows that that's her frog.

* In some stage adaptations of ''Literature/TheHobbit'', Thorin has trouble with saying Smaug's name. With the right actors, it leads to hilarity.

[[folder:Video Games]]
* In the Japanese version of ''VideoGame/BreathOfFireII'', a clue as to the mercenary El (Farlan in the [[FanTranslation retranslation]])'s true identity is the fact that he can't say the masculine pronoun "ore" without stuttering. [[spoiler: In a rarely-seen cutscene, it's revealed that the mercenary is actually Princess Elfarlan herself.]]
* In ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins'', romanced Alistair has a really hard time telling the female Warden that he wants to spend the night with her. He manages to explain that whenever she's around he feels like his head is about to explode, which - depending on the dialogue option chosen - can leave her feeling amused or insulted. He gets there eventually.
* The infamous Highwind scene from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'', where Cloud gets awkward expressing thanks to Tifa for being supportive of him. Tifa replies, "Words aren't the only way to convey your feelings."
* In a PointAndClickGame ''VideoGame/InnocentUntilCaught'', after you are bailed out of jail by {{Narm}} (no, really, that's his name), you have an option to thank him for it. The protagonist, after a few attempts, refuses, considering that Narm is [[TheDitz life-defyingly stupid]].
* Kaidan if you decide to romance him in ''VideoGame/MassEffect1'':
-->'''Kaidan''': Of course. You always leave a way out. That's what I lo- appreciate about you.
-->'''Shepard''': Galaxy in the balance and you trip talking to me.
* An extreme version of this trope is Guybrush Threepwood in ''VideoGame/TheSecretOfMonkeyIsland'', where he can't talk at all to Elaine Marley, instead muttering nonsensical gibberish.

[[folder:Visual Novels]]
* In ''VisualNovel/DisgaeaInfinite'', Laharl has to be blackmailed by Etna into congratulating Flonne for becoming an Angel Trainee again. And when he does, the words barely come out of his mouth.

[[folder:Webcomics]]
* For the first year of ''Webcomic/{{Avalon|1999}}'', the characters seem (progressively less) unable to say the word "lesbian", which complicates Ceilidh's attempts to ascertain whether her best friend Phoebe ''is'' one ([[MistakenForGay as rumor would have it]]). When she finally asks Ryan outright [[http://www.avalonhigh.com/d/20000920.html why he would ask out a lesbian]], she learns all about what started the rumor, among other things. Unfortunately, by this time Ceilidh's constant innuendo has half the school -- including Phoebe herself -- convinced that ''she's'' a lesbian.
* ''Webcomic/DumbingOfAge'': [[http://www.dumbingofage.com/2014/comic/book-5/01-when-somebody-loved-me/thirdactclimax/ Defied by Walky.]]
-->'''Walky:''' Girls always say "I love you!" an' the dude is always "I can't say it for some dumb reason" -- I mean, '''c'mon''', dude, just '''say''' it. I'm '''so''' not making this a third-act climax sorta thing.
* Happens in ''{{Webcomic/Homestuck}}'' when Jake outright asks whether Jane has a crush on him. She tries to dance around the subject, too nervous to answer yes, and when he pushes her she finally answers... "no". HilarityEnsues. Also drama.
** Also played for laughs with Caliborn, who by his own admission instinctively starts mashing keys whenever he is forced to type "love", "friend", or other related words.
* In ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'', Haley at one point becomes unable to speak intelligibly at all for some time until she expresses her feelings for Elan by an AnguishedDeclarationOfLove.

[[folder:Web Original]]
* In ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged'', Vegeta attempts to recruit the heroes for a fight he can't handle on his own any more than the heroes can. "Every fiber of my being wants to puke at once when I say this, but I need your heh... I need your he-eeh-eeeeh..." Gohan responds, "You need our help?" "That, yes."
* Invoked in ''Literature/LegionOfNetHeroes''; after a lengthy storyline in which Legionnaire Decibel Dude is framed for murder and hunted by the Legion, he shows up with the evidence to clear his name. LNH leader Ultimate Ninja attempts to apologize, but can't quite manage the word "sorry". After two or three attempts, Decibel Dude lets him off the hook.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'':

** In "The Fuss", when Nicole realizes that it is ''not'' their anniversary and therefore has no reason to be angry with Richard for [[ForgottenAnniversary forgetting it]], she has extreme difficulty admitting that she was wrong. Anais has to say it for her.
* In ''{{WesternAnimation/Archer}}'', Lana has trouble expressing direct affection for Cyril, partially because she's uncertain about commitment because of being hurt by Archer, and partially because she's not entirely sure how much she likes the dweebish but dependable (and [[BiggerIsBetterInBed well endowed]]) Cyril.
* In one episode of the ''WesternAnimation/{{Beetlejuice}}'' cartoon, Lydia urges BJ to tell his brother, Donny, that he loves him. BJ is a little unsettled by the idea of using "the L-word," and struggles for a good minute before finally offering a compromise: "I don't... hate you like I used to." It's close enough for Donny.
* In ''WesternAnimation/BojackHorseman'', the titular character is often this, as he struggles to express his emotions in a healthy or positive way after years of abuse by his parents. After accidentally dropping the "l-word" around his girlfriend Wanda, he immediately shouts, "No I don't!" and runs out of the house. When his ex-girlfriend asks him if he ever loved her, he initially says he doesn't "do the whole 'love' thing" before later admitting he loved her "as much as (he) was capable of loving anyone, which is never enough".
* ''WesternAnimation/FostersHomeForImaginaryFriends'': In "Where There's A Wilt, There's A Way", Wilt tries to watch the big basketball game, but keeps getting distracted because of his inability to say "no", and he ends up MissingTheGoodStuff.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheGrimAdventuresOfBillyAndMandy'': In the episode "Sickly Sweet," Billy and Grim stick the cursed Mask of the Beast on Mandy in an effort to make her be nice for a change... only Mandy is such a {{Jerkass}} that even something as simple as saying "please" is nearly impossible for her.

'''Bugs:''' (amazed) Did you just say you're ''solly?''\\
'''Daffy:''' I'm... soggy.\\
'''Bugs:''' You're ''soggy?''\\
'''Daffy:''' I'm... sarming.
* ''{{WesternAnimation/Metalocalypse}}'': Saying "I'm sorry" is so difficult for Nathan Explosion that he vomits up blood.
* ''WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse2013'': The short "No" focuses on Mickey's inability to say "No" to his friends, leading Donald to teach him how. The plan works, only [[GoneHorriblyRight it works too well]] and causes Mickey to instinctively say "No" at times when he should have said "Yes".
* In ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls1998'' episode "Paste Makes Waste", Buttercup can't bring herself to say "I'm sorry" to another kid she was teasing for being a paste-eater. However, she's ''forced'' to when [[ItMakesSenseInContext a fly infected with radioactive goo flies into his paste, tainting it and turns him into a giant glue monster.]] She struggles to say it the first time though it's still enough to get his attention and she's able to much better apologize to him.
** This happens again at the end of "All Chalked Up" when Buttercup tries to apologize to Bubbles for smashing her chalk earlier. Bubbles interrupts before she can finish, saying she forgives her anyway.
