Added DiffLines:

** Alice slaps Bob across the face but it turns out he likes it and it's her way of flirting (expansion on Justified) he responds to her slaps with a deep, passionate French kiss.


Added DiffLines:

** Alice slowly begins taking it too far, punching him (which he does ''not'' enjoy). Their once fun and flirty life changes for the worse, but [[NoSympathy people act like Bob deserves it for being "sick" enough to have enjoyed]] Alice slapping him. She eventually stops slapping him and only assaults him with punches, kicks, and the occasional GroinAttack.


Added DiffLines:

** Alice slaps Bob and Bob gets turned on, turns out he ''loves'' getting slapped by a girl but was too afraid to tell her for fear of being judged, this diffuses the argument and quickly becomes a flirty game until Bob begins viewing getting slapped as a ''reward'' so he starts doing things to result in that on purpose, she escalates to the GroinAttack, which initially is not enjoyed, he grows to sometimes enjoy it so she begins punching and kicking him, which is ''never'' enjoyed. She even stops slapping him (which, in this context is affection and flirting). Her friends and society all laugh about it.

** Alice kills Bob during one of her fits, and manages to weasel out of a jail term since everyone figures [[KillingInSelfDefense it was self defense]]. Bob begins to torment Alice from beyond the grave, going to such lengths as superimposing his blood-slathered and/ or rotting face over hers on every mirror she happens to look into, destroying her favorite furniture, dishes, and other belongings while leaving his {{bloody handprint}}s everywhere, screaming "[[LastWords I didn't mean to... I'm sorry... what are you... Alice,]] [[BigNo NOOOOOOOOOO!!!]]" and performing MindRape whenever Alice dozes off, [[ItCameFromTheFridge possessing her leftovers]] and making Alice hallucinate blood on her hands and forearms. The town [[InterrogatingTheDead medium]] finds out the reason he's haunting Alice, but [[NoSympathy dismisses it as something trivial]], triggering Bob to say [[NiceJobBreakingItHero "Fuck you.]] [[PayEvilUntoEvil She tortured me to death, and now I'm gonna do the same to her!"]] and splats the {{Necromancer}} with a refrigerator, splashing Alice in the face. Bob's rage, grief, and hatred cause the house to collapse into a vortex, leaving Alice homeless, bat-shit insane, blood-drenched, and suicidal. And since this is a horror story (and those always have {{Downer Ending}}s, unless [[EsotericHappyEnding one wants the antagonist to get their comeuppance]]), Bob keeps at it until she finally jumps off a bridge, or torments her to the point that she cannot escape from Bob's wrath and numerous [[FateWorseThanDeath fates worse than death]] [[AndIMustScream for all]] [[IronicHell eternity]].
