Does this at all include cases where one drugs the other person so they can't say no? If not, there's probably a trope for that and we should link to it to differentiate.
I seem to remember a sketch from All That involving a "romance" between apparently low-class, young black guy and an apparently higher-class white girl, and everybody is saying that they shouldn't be together... because the girl is in a coma, and the guy is obviously deluding himself when he says that they love each other. He's told something almost exactly the same as the name of this trope. I thought it was the Trope Namer for this, but I can't find any evidence that the sketch existed; it might not have been an All That sketch, but I'm pretty sure I saw it. Anyone else know anything about it?

I'm pretty sure that, grammar-wise, there should be a comma after She's:
Dude, she's, like, in a coma!
Grammar-wise, the 'like' itself is obsolete. I'd say the comma is optional - to me the sentence flows both ways.
Isn't there a moment in Willow when this happens. Where Madmordigan is under a spell of love potion!
