Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })When a character is romantically or sexually attracted to another, they want to be sure that their heart is unattached before forming a serious interest or possibly even ask them out on a date. The question might either be an open inquiry — "Do you have a boyfriend?" — or the fake presumption of a significant other that only waits to be corrected — "Your boyfriend is very lucky" "I don't have a boyfriend". To avoid unnecessary embarrassment, sometimes the character might choose to learn the relationship status through a friend. In addition, if the love interest turns out to be single, the character might: express satisfaction at the fact that they are available — "I'm glad"; express surprise as a compliment — "That's strange"; express sympathy if the circumstances are not pleasing — "I'm sorry".

This trope reflects Truth in Television, as it is sensible to know someone's relationship status before forming an interest and risking being rejected. |
