So, you've got a protagonist who's a bit abrasive, a bit rough around the edges. If you wanted to make a love interest for that character (assuming the character is the type that has the human capacity for love), you could either make the love interest just like the protagonist, make them single, or Take a Third Option: you could make their love interest completely passive. The inversion of All Girls Want Bad Boys and All Amazons Want Hercules, Pitbull Dates Puppy is when someone who's tough enters a relationship with The Woobie, Non-Action Guy, The Heart, or the Extreme Doormat — often by force, though it is possible for one or the other to naturally fall in love with each other. Often done in historical romance novels where a badass decides to marry some fresh young innocent thing as a change from his usual Vamp or Femme Fatale choices. May be a Romantic False Lead if done deliberately to screw with a more suitable ex. Contrast Best Her to Bed Her. Also see True Love is Exceptional for when a similar Opposites Attract dynamic actually works out, and Aggressive Submissive when the relationship works like this most of the time, until the time they actually have sex when suddenly their roles get inverted. Compare Beast and Beauty, Brooding Boy, Gentle Girl, Masculine–Feminine Gay Couple and Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy. In psychology, this is known as the "precarious couple." Has nothing to do with the rapper Pitbull. |

Mix Beer With Liquor And You Will Get Sicker has protagonist Lauchlan as the Puppy; he's extremely shy, polite, kind-hearted, and lacks social skills as well as assertiveness. Corbin, the man he falls in love with, is a blunt, rude, ever-cussing, cynical Pitbull who's not intimidated by anyone. | |

House has two doctors who date in season 4 and tried to keep their relationship secret. The pitbull is Amber whose nickname is "Cutthroat Bitch" and the puppy is Wilson, a rather sweet sensitive guy. Part of the arc of their relationship was her trying to teach him to stand up for himself, even to her. Their relationship lasted for half a season. She died in the season finale. | |

April and Andy on Parks and Recreation. They get married, and it seems to work, probably because April is actually a softie under the snarky exterior. His main tactic to get her back when she was trying to make him jealous and toying around with him? Being nice and inviting her revenge boyfriend to jam with him on old Dave Matthews Band songs. | |

Flipped around all over the place with Toradora!. Ryuuji has the Face of a Thug, so much so that on the way to class one morning, two guys gave him their wallets, pleading for their lives. He's actually a very nice guy, as well as a major Neat Freak. Contrast with Taiga, who's a short, very cute girl... and known around school as the "Palmtop Tiger" for her angry demeanor and occasional violent outbursts (she punches out Ryuuji when he accidentally bumps into her). | |

Asuka always claimed she wanted someone confident, determined, and muscular and she was not interested in scrawny boys. Still, she fell in love with Shinji and after seducing him they are unable to live without each other. | |

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Genocide: Shinji and Asuka's relationship is pretty difficult and complex since Asuka is very abrasive and bitter due to a dismal childhood and deep trauma, and Shinji is somewhat wimpy. Nonetheless, it gets better when Shinji makes a serious effort to support and help Asuka, and she mellows down when she acknowledges that he cares about her. Shinji also comes to find that trying to appeal to Asuka's better nature in an argument often works much better than being confrontational with her. | |

In a medical drama Monday Mornings, Dr. Sydney Napur dates Dr. John Lieberman. He asks her out in the first episode but she kind of made him by almost screaming and being pushy. Generally, she is way tougher than him. When Sydney discusses it with her colleagues, Dr. Jorge Villanueva thinks he'll "go through her like crap through goose", and she gets angry. Dr. Lieberman reacts with a Flat "What". | |

For Neon Genesis Evangelion fics, there are these: In Advice and Trust, Shinji's female schoolmates don't understand why he is infatuated with Asuka because they think that she's a brutish tsundere and he a timid wallflower. The Child of Love: Asuka could be very abrasive and overbearing, especially at the early stages of her pregnancy when she was madder and more depressed, and Shinji was pretty meek and wimpy, but both were drawn to each other. Evangelion 303: Asuka is a very aggressive, hot-headed woman and Shinji is a non-confrontational, quiet, shy man. Asuka always claimed she wanted someone confident, determined, and muscular and she was not interested in scrawny boys. Still, she fell in love with Shinji and after seducing him they are unable to live without each other. In Ghosts of Evangelion, Asuka is bold, aggressive, and she can get nasty and mean when she's in a bad mood. Shinji is more passive and acquiescent. If someone asks him why they are together, he answers that he owes her, he doesn't really mind her bad moods, she is really nice when she wants (and she doesn't mean most bad things she says), and she actually wants him to be assertive and stand up for himself. HERZ: Kurumi often wondered why Shinji -a quiet, unassuming guy- married a fiery woman like Asuka. In reality, Shinji and Asuka need each other desperately and they think no one else will ever be able to understand their pain. Last Child of Krypton: Despite her abrasive, bold nature, Asuka could not help to be drawn to quiet, non-belligerent, unassuming, polite Shinji. And it was Shinji's kind nature that allowed him to see she was a better, kinder person than she thought she was despite her aggressive, forward behaviour, and falling in love with her. Subverted when she discovered he was Superman. Superwomen Of Eva 2 Lone Heir Of Krypton: Asuka is fiery, hot-blooded, aggressive, hard-headed, impatient... and she is Supergirl. Shinji is a Non-Action Guy passive, quiet, and meek. However, Shinji fell in love with Asuka precisely because he admired her strength, willpower, courage, and determination, and Asuka fell in love with him precisely because he was gentle, caring, and dependable. The other Superwomen of Eva stories involving Shinji are this because all of the other titular action girls are incredibly destructive in battle and Shinji is only useful in combat if he's in an Evangelion, cementing his role as The Heart (in Superwomen of Eva: Emerald Fury, it's even an important plot point that he's The Kid with the Leash to the freaking She-Hulk). The odd story out is Superwomen of Eva: Spirit, a Hikari/Toji pairing, and even then it's obvious that Hikari is Silk Hiding Steel and Toji is highly dorky when dealing with the UST. Subverted in Thousand Shinji. At first sight, Asuka seems to be the pitbull to Shinji's puppy because she is brash, loud, and demanding, whereas Shinji is quieter... But in reality, Shinji is the pitbull. A conniving, crafty, manipulative pitbull. Children of an Elder God: Although they're less damaged than their canon counterparts, Asuka is still pretty aggressive and combative, and her Love Interest Shinji is pretty wimpy and timid, so their relationship looks like this to their friends. The Second Try subverted it. Everyone thinks Shinji and Asuka's relationship is this because Shinji is wimpy and meek and Asuka is harsh and aggressive. In reality, their relationship got over that phase several years ago, but they pretend otherwise in order to keep their time-travelling status secret. Neon Genesis Evangelion: Genocide: Shinji and Asuka's relationship is pretty difficult and complex since Asuka is very abrasive and bitter due to a dismal childhood and deep trauma, and Shinji is somewhat wimpy. Nonetheless, it gets better when Shinji makes a serious effort to support and help Asuka, and she mellows down when she acknowledges that he cares about her. Shinji also comes to find that trying to appeal to Asuka's better nature in an argument often works much better than being confrontational with her. Once More with Feeling: Since Asuka is abrasive, loud, and temperamental and Shinji is quiet, calm, and non-confrontational, most of their acquaintances consider that they have this kind of relationship. Touji and Kensuke think their "poor" friend Shinji needs to be saved from the "Demon Red", and Misato doesn't get how Shinji appears to be utterly, impossibly immune to everything Asuka throws at him in her standard attempts to push him away. |

Homestuck: Deconstructed with Vriska and Tavros. Vriska's a Manipulative Bitch who crippled Tavros for a laugh as a child, and years later, continues to mess with him to try and toughen him up. It later turns out that part of the reason she's doing it is to try and invoke Generation Xerox. Her ancestor wound up in love with (and was killed by) Tavros' ancestor, who incidentally was one of the greatest heroes trollkind had ever known. In the end, Vriska finally winds up killing him because she feels he's toughened up too late. Vriska and Tavros finally start dating in the afterlife, and their relationship is every bit as messed up and dysfunctional as you'd expect. It doesn't last long, of course. Vriska's relationship with John reconstructs the trope, mostly because she's learned from her past experiences "helping" people. Not only does she succeed with him in every way she failed with Tavros, but she actually starts wanting to be a better person as a result. Unfortunately, she's killed right after she asks him out on a date. |

Metal Gear: Metal Gear Solid: There's clearly something going on between Sniper Wolf and Otacon. While Otacon's massive crush for her is not entirely requited, she still is very fond of him. But even though she puts on a tough appearance, she's actually a Death Seeker and knows it will be only more painful for him if they get closer. Meryl and Johnny in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. He is a complete loser and dork, while she's one of the toughest Action Girls in video game land, and has a rather mean temper as well. She shows no interest in him at all and constantly berates him for most of the game, until he saves her life not once but twice, after which she admits her affection for him, but is still quite mean most of the time. When he finally asks her to marry him, she refuses on the ground that in this relationship SHE has to propose to him, which he then gladly accepts. |

The human lead of The General Series, Raj Whitehall, is a gifted officer from a frontier province that generally provides soldiers rather than taxes to the Civil Government. However in the pit of backstabbing, manipulation, murder, and other entertainments that is the political scene of East Residence; the man is a puppy. His petite, beautiful wife Suzette? She is the pitbull, made all more vicious for wanting to keep the man she loves intact. | |

Subverted in Thousand Shinji. At first sight, Asuka seems to be the pitbull to Shinji's puppy because she is brash, loud, and demanding, whereas Shinji is quieter... But in reality, Shinji is the pitbull. A conniving, crafty, manipulative pitbull. | |

A Brother's Price: In the backstory, we have quiet-spoken, dignified Alannon, who was married to a band of rough soldiers in an Exotic Extended Marriage. In the present, there is Cullen Moorland, a sweet, innocent, and thoroughly harmless boy, who gets married to Alannon's granddaughters, the Whistler sisters, who are anything but harmless. | |

Once More with Feeling: Since Asuka is abrasive, loud, and temperamental and Shinji is quiet, calm, and non-confrontational, most of their acquaintances consider that they have this kind of relationship. Touji and Kensuke think their "poor" friend Shinji needs to be saved from the "Demon Red", and Misato doesn't get how Shinji appears to be utterly, impossibly immune to everything Asuka throws at him in her standard attempts to push him away. | |

In Ghosts of Evangelion, Asuka is bold, aggressive, and she can get nasty and mean when she's in a bad mood. Shinji is more passive and acquiescent. If someone asks him why they are together, he answers that he owes her, he doesn't really mind her bad moods, she is really nice when she wants (and she doesn't mean most bad things she says), and she actually wants him to be assertive and stand up for himself. | |

Glee: Quinn, who began as the Alpha Bitch of the series, and Finn, the Big Man on Campus who just happens to be a really Nice Guy. During the time they were together, they genuinely were in love with each other, but Quinn slept with Finn's best friend and tried to pass the baby off as Finn's and Finn himself kissed Rachel while he and Quinn were still together. Alpha Bitch Quinn follows this up when she starts dating dorky but cute nerd Sam Evans. Santana and Brittany. Santana can be a bitch and Brittany is an adorable Cloud Cuckoolander, Brittany's the only person Santana is genuinely nice to and the only one that can actually control Santana's meanness. |

This is the case in Danganronpa fics if the pairing is Makoto Naegi and Mukuro Ikusaba. With Mukuro canonically having a crush on Makoto, it's not uncommon for Makoto to to be the one to defrost her, and for her to be a Violently Protective Girlfriend in turn. This trope is illustrated very literally in this image, with Mukuro being a wolf (reflecting her past in the PMC Fenrir) with a knife in her jaws, protecting a small Shiba Inu puppy version of Makoto. | |

WALL•E is The Woobie and a very sweet, caring robot who only wants someone to love after spending hundreds of years alone, while his love interest EVE is a tough Action Girl prone to blowing things up with her plasma cannon at the slightest provocation. Ironically, EVE's job is to help protect life on Earth, and WALL•E has proven a lot more effective at that role through his nourishing personality. | |

Last Child of Krypton: Despite her abrasive, bold nature, Asuka could not help to be drawn to quiet, non-belligerent, unassuming, polite Shinji. And it was Shinji's kind nature that allowed him to see she was a better, kinder person than she thought she was despite her aggressive, forward behaviour, and falling in love with her. Subverted when she discovered he was Superman. | |

Futurama: Fry and Leela. Leela is easily among the toughest characters in the show and can beat the tar out of most anyone. Fry, on the other hand, is mostly a softer Nice Guy who is friendly to just about anyone and shown to be an Amazon Chaser. They don't become an Official Couple until the post-revival series on Comedy Central though. Their relationship is unstable for about a season before they settle into a more committed relationship in the last season. | |

Child of the Storm toys with this in Harry and Carol's dynamic, particularly before they get together. In the first book, he's an All-Loving Hero, a general sweetie, romantic, and sometimes quite quiet, while she's sarky, a bit spiky, abrasive, and tough, being wary about opening up to people. Oh, and she's most of a foot taller than he is. However, he was also a bold Deadpan Snarker who never met an authority figure or supervillain he didn't crack wise at, an adrenalin junkie with a lot of repressed emotions, and a darker streak. Likewise, she was kind, affectionate, even bubbly, when she could be persuaded to lower her guard (and a Tomboy with a Girly Streak, hiding the latter to spite her father), and emotionally insightful. Add a significant growth spurt on his part and a lot of Character Development, and they're more or less Birds of a Feather by the time they get together in the sequel - though she's still usually rougher and more Hot-Blooded than he is. |
