[[AC: Anime and Manga]]
* ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'': Yoko and Kamina relentlessly bicker and insult each other, are in obvious denial, and even have AccidentalPervert moments to top it off. In contrast, passive Simon and sweet Nia fall in love very easily.

[[AC: Literature]]

* ''Literature/PrideAndPrejudice'' casts NiceGirl Jane and amiable Bingley as the peaceful couple (they fall in love almost immediately and all complications in their relationship arise from outside intervention) and snarky Elizabeth and aloof Darcy as the bickering couple (Elizabeth initially can't stand him and her behavior towards him reflects this).
* ''Literature/{{Emma}}'' has Emma and Knightley as the Bickering (constantly criticizing each other, snarky, in denial about their feelings for each other) vs. Harriet and Martin as the Peaceful (both sweet people and are kept apart only by Emma's interference).

[[AC: Western Animation]]
* ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice'': Miss Martian and Superboy get together with relatively little brouhaha and remain stable throughout the first season while Artemis and Kid Flash go through a ton of BelligerentSexualTension before finally getting together. Reversed in the second season, when Miss Martian and Superboy have broken up due to disagreement on the usage of her powers while Artemis and Kid Flash are still very much together.
