Line #13 PlayingWith/MeeknessIsWeakness


1	'''Basic Trope''': Someone suffering through their selflessness.
2	* '''Straight''': Alice is a selfless girl who cares for others. She isn't treated nicely in return.
3	* '''Exaggerated''': Alice has devoted her life to caring for others at her own expense, oftentimes to the point of near-starving herself due to spending everything on those in [[GreaterNeedThanMine Greater Need Than Her]]... yet all she gets from [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer fellow humans]] are laughs, sneering or ignorance.
4	* '''Downplayed''': Most of the time Alice puts others first and doesn't do what she wants in order to help others but she spends the rest of the time on herself.
5	* '''Justified''':
6	** [[ThePollyanna Alice]] strongly believes that selflessness is rewarding despite [[TakingAdvantageOfGenerosity never getting as much as a 'thank you']].
7	** Alternatively, Alice is a GoodSamaritan who couldn’t care less if the recipient appreciates her kindness or not.
8	** Nobody likes nice, selfless people at all, for whatever reason.
9	* '''Inverted''':
10	** Everyone treats Alice nicely, but [[UngratefulBastard she treats them badly in return]].
11	** Alice is a selfish girl who cares for only herself. She isn't treated nicely in return.
12	** Alice is a [[AllLovingHero selfless girl]] who cares for others. [[LikeAGodToMe She is treated like an Idol in return.]]
13	* '''Subverted''':
14	** Alice has [[SecretlySelfish a few selfish moments]].
15	** One of them did treat Alice nicely in return.
16	* '''Double Subverted''':
17	** ...Which are making her loved ones happy.
18	** But it was all a trick [[TheFarmerAndTheViper to back-stab her later]].
19	* '''Parodied''': Alice cared for an ObviouslyEvil AlphaBitch.
20	* '''Zig Zagged''': ???
21	* '''Averted''': Alice is a selfless girl who cares for others. She was treated the same in return had she not cared for others anyway.
22	* '''Enforced''': The writer (usually TheCynic, or at least a proud owner of a nice pair of JadeColoredGlasses) wants to point out that LifeIsntFair and [[BeingGoodSucks kindness]] [[NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished does not]] [[DudeWheresMyRespect get rewarded]] as the media usually portray.
23	* '''Lampshaded''': "[[SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids Get real, Alice.]] No one respects a doormat who is kind and sweet and never strikes back. No one."
24	* '''Invoked''': Alice was raised by her family to be that kind of ProperLady.
25	* '''Exploited''': TheCorrupter tries to lure Alice into TheDarkSide through pushing her to a MistreatmentInducedBetrayal.
26	* '''Defied''': Anyone mistreating Alice will soon be facing her boyfriend Bob, who will scar the bastard (or [[WouldHitAGirl the bitch]]) into not bullying Alice again.
27	* '''Discussed''': ???
28	* '''Conversed''': ???
