* In the few episodes of ''The Book of Bantorra'', there is a psychic woman who sees the future in which there is a man who loves her. Several hundred years in the future, a man picks up her book and reads it, falling in love with her.

* ''{{Lost}}'': Desmond has a history of mental time-travel in which his girlfriend Penny serves as his TheConstant (also TropeNamer): his first time-traveling experience is at least partially triggered by him proclaiming his life to her, his second one is stopped when he makes contact with her in both time periods. It MakesSenseInContext and is '''much''' BetterThanItSounds.

* In the ''DragonridersOfPern'' novel ''Dragonquest'', Brekke's love for F'nor is apparently enough to telepathically reach out to the Red Star and cause Canth to teleport them home, despite being unconscious at the time. No character in the series had ever evidenced the ability to telepathically communicate across interplanetary distances before (or after).

Contrast StarCrossedLovers.

* Hurley, Desmond and Daniel in the alternate timeline in the sixth season of {{LOST}}. The reason they start to FlashSideways is the women they love. Desmond starts having visions of Penny, Daniel (who in this timeline is a musician and not a scientist) spontaneouslt starts doing quantum mechanics after catching a glimpse of Charlotte, and Hurley gets a outright FlashSideways just from touching the woman who in the main timeline got murdered right before their first date. Ahead of all of them was Charlie, who had a vision of Claire while [[ItMakesSenseInContext choking on a heroin baggie]]. Sadly he doesn't notice that she's on the same flight as he.

* The various [[TheFlash Flashes]] use their loved ones as an emotional tether to avoid bouncing uncontrollably through time or being absorbed by the Speed Force their powers draw upon.[[/folder]]

* Near the end of E.E. "Doc" Smith's last ''{{Lensman}}'' novel ''Children of the Lens'', Kimball Kinnison is thrown outside the space-time continuum. His wife Clarrissa, his children and Mentor of Arisia use the PowerOfLove to find him and bring him back.

* GurrenLagann. Explaining would be a MAJOR spoiler. To be fair, love is far from the only thing in the setting that transcends spacetime.

* In ''Happy Accidents'', time travel itself is done via technology (OrIsIt), but the protagonist says that the past can only be changed through an extreme amount of emotional energy. This leads him to think that he can save the life of a woman who's photograph he fell in love with in the future. [[spoiler: It works.]][[/folder]]

* Deconstructed in ''VoicesOfADistantStar'', in which the two lovers end up eight light-years apart due to a war and have to send each other text messages (with an eight year delay) as a way of keeping in touch. They still love each other, but the physical distance is a clear source of angst for both of them (to say nothing of the fact that one party is a soldier in the war).[[/folder]]

* In the few episodes of ''The Book of Bantorra'', there is a psychic woman who sees the future in which there is a man who loves her. Several hundred years in the future, a man picks up her book and reads it, falling in love with her.[[/folder]]
