Added DiffLines:

'''Basic Trope''': Two people with unresolved romantic interest in each other kiss, but for a plausibly non-romantic reason and so don't become a couple.
* '''Straight''': Alice and Bob both have a crush on one another, but are scared to actually go steady. In the ChristmasEpisode, they kiss, but it was UnderTheMistletoe, so they don't start dating.
* '''Exaggerated''': Not only was it under the mistletoe, but also it was AllJustADream ''and'' they were [[FakeOutMakeOut undercover]].
* '''Downplayed''': Alice and Bob are dating, but they never kiss. When they do kiss, it's implied that they're going to get married, but they don't.
* '''Justified''': Alice and Bob are still too shy to date, but they want to kiss, so they kiss under the mistletoe.
* '''Inverted''': Alice and Bob are already a couple but they want to break up. They seem to, but it was all a dream.
* '''Subverted''': Alice and Bob kiss under the mistletoe in the Christmas episode. They're not dating in the next episode, but they go on their first date in the episode after that.
* '''Double Subverted''': Only to decide it's not worth it and break up.
* '''Parodied''':
* '''Zigzagged''': Alice and Bob kiss under the mistletoe and don't start dating, then later they do but they break up, then later they go all the way but it was a one-night stand, then they kiss again but they were undercover...
* '''Averted''': Alice and Bob do get together after kissing under the mistletoe.
* '''Enforced''':
** [[ExecutiveMeddling The executives]] wanted to avoid a ShippingBedDeath.
** Two writers are in conflict about whether Alice and Bob should hook up.
* '''Lampshaded''': "Well, guess our first kiss didn't count."
* '''Invoked''': Alice and Bob, due to their crushes, intentionally find excuses to kiss.
* '''Exploited''':
* '''Defied''': "No! I don't care if there's mistletoe, I'm not kissing you unless you agree to date me!"
* '''Discussed''': "Does it count when it's under the mistletoe?"
* '''Conversed''': "Just get together, already! You've already kissed, for crying out loud!"
* '''Implied''':
* '''Deconstructed''':
* '''Reconstructed''':
* '''Played for Laughs''':
* '''Played for Drama''':
* '''Played for Horror''': It doesn't count as a kiss, because they were possessed.
