* In ''ComicBook/{{Runaways}}'', Karolina and Xavin's relationship initially began as a ruse to try and end the war between their respective species, but over time, they grew to care about each other.
* Zig-zagged in ''ComicBook/XStatix'', where Phat and Vivisector initially became a couple as a desperate ploy to raise their popularity and discourage their publicity-hungry bosses from killing one of them for drama, but after the death of [[spoiler:Edie Sawyer]], they decided to pursue a genuine relationship... only to figure out that while they are both gay men, they're not actually attracted to each other.

* In ''Series/TheAmericans'', Paul and Elizabeth Jennings were initially paired off by the Centre to pose as a couple so that they could work closely together without arousing suspicion among their American neighbors. After so many years together, they have grown to genuinely love each other. [[spoiler:In the fifth season, they even decide to marry each other for real, in the traditional Russian fashion.]]
