What cute or fluffy fanfiction trope would be absolutely horrifying in real life?

For me, it's any variation of the soulmate, eh you?

Like, what do you mean that they're destined to be my other half, whether platonically or romantically?

What do you mean any other relationship will pale in comparison?

Credit to credit user CinderDreams for starting this thread on the fanfiction subreddit.

And let's go read some answers.

Let me know your own, too.

I mean, can you imagine waking up one morning to find someone else's name tattooed on your skin

because fate picked them to be your soulmate?

It's like getting a bad tattoo that you can't laser off.

It'd be terrifying to think about Destiny choosing someone, irrespective of their personality or literal criminal record.

Plus, can you imagine the pressure?

One bad date and you're not just ruining your week, but apparently the universe is planned too.

No ma'am, I'd rather have my Netflix and snacks in peace, thank you very much.

This is probably not relatable to everyone, but the only one bed trope.

I hate sharing beds with people, even when I'm prepared to.

Even in a romantic relationship, I want my own space to sleep in.

I would rather sleep on the floor than be forced to share a bed with someone without any mental preparation.

This is going to be my answer.

I'd rather sleep on the floor than be in the same bed as someone.

And I hate sleeping on floors.

The always positive, pushy friend who pushes the introvert out of their shell and urges for radical physical transformation.

I have no patience for that.

Interfering friends that relentlessly needle and push you to ask out your crush or just generally are very nosy,

might even outright ask you if you like that person right in front of them.

I experienced it, hated it, it just made me uncomfortable.

I can't stand it in any kind of fiction.

It's such a turnoff for me that I'll just stop reading if the friends are too interfering.

Fake dating to appease nosy ass family members.

just tell them you're single and move on.

Ooh, good one.

One of my ultimate tropes that would actually make me so mad.

We have to practice kissing so they believe it.

Huh?

Not exactly horrifying, but I once had someone I had a crush on for years come back into my life and ask me out.

And it was awkward as hell and did not result in anything positive.

Of course, I'm sure sometimes it is something that works out in real life, but in my case, it was the opposite.

But in fanfic, I still love it.

Okay, this might sound cliche, but enemies to lovers.

These fics are my absolute favorite, but in real life, if a person called me every insult under the sun, relentlessly bullied me, hurt my friends or family,

etc. I'm sorry, I am not going to forgive you or suddenly think, well, he called me a dumb bitch before,

but surely he doesn't mean it now.

Nah, you say what you mean, and if you thought so lowly of me before, or thought it's okay to treat people like that, why would I trust you now?

This also includes the plots where a person is mean to everyone but the main character.

No, it's not cute that you're rude to people even if you're sweet to the main character.

You're still a dick.

Yeah, and I also love the idea of the hero character who can't help

but be attracted to the villain despite how much they hate each other, but I can't imagine feeling like that in real life.

If I hate you, then I want absolutely nothing to do with you.

No other underlying feelings.

Pretty much any enemies to lovers.

They tried to kill each other, and now they're together?

Buddy, what?

That's gotta be traumatic.

or variations thereof, like bullies dating their victims.

A lot of people like to write trauma-rebound romance.

I don't, because not only does it not work in real life, but it makes the ship feel forced.

It's why I only ship Korra with therapy, and why I rewrote Disney's direct-to-video sequel to The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Jealousy and possessiveness.

In media, it's lovable or hot or both.

I'd let myself be spoon-fed with that.

But in real life, it's scary AF.

Coffee shop AU, specifically the whole flirting with the barista thing.

It's cute and fic, but flirting with service workers in real life is a whole no. They're doing their job.

A stubborn character being forcibly cared for.

I feel like it would be really uncomfortable doing or receiving that in real life, and it could be genuinely traumatic at worst.

But in fiction, it's like, yeah, you make sure this dumbass doesn't hurt themselves further.

I am the stubborn character, and it is hell.

People ignore your boundaries thinking they know better than you, when they never do in reality, and think they're doing a good thing.

Meanwhile, you feel even worse, because now you're sick or injured, but a loved one violated your trust

and showed they have a very low opinion of you and your abilities to know what is good for yourself.

Probably risking your life to continue to date the one person, after figuring out they have a dangerous job,

mafia, assassin, spy, etc. because you love them.

I couldn't handle knowing I could be a target of kidnapping.

Or, you know, dying.

I like a normal, stable life.

Not sure if this is fluffy, but I'd be miserable in a forbidden relationship scenario.

Mainly because I've been out of the closet for years, and the one time I dated someone that was in the closet, I felt that I had to watch what I said,

couldn't be seen in public, and not feel liked or acceptable when I truly did nothing wrong but exist.

No idea of love is worth making yourselves both miserable.

Doctor slash dentist slash teacher slash professor slash boss ex patient slash subordinate slash student.

Conveniently running into the other person multiple times.

In real life, that's stalker behavior.

In fiction, it's a convenient way to have the two love interests meet.

Or showing up to the same place a lot because you know that's where the other person goes a lot, or works.

I've read a couple fics about this trope.

A is hiding a surprise or funding a trip and had to lie about it to Bee.

I remember two fics that took a realistic approach.

Bee would suspect cheating and get sad and depressed.

Imagine weeks or months of your partner acting shady and maybe everyone else gaslighting you as they are in on it.

And at the end, after all the worrying and sadness and anger, surprise, it was all a trick.

I would have preferred no surprise over all this drama.

I'm with you on this.

Would it be that difficult to say, Hey hun, I'm working on a surprise for you for your birthday, so you're not messing with their emotions?

You can still surprise them.

The Snowdin trope.

Yeah, I get why it's fluff central and everything, but honestly, the idea of being trapped in a small cabin or room with only a small group of people, or just one person.

It makes me shiver when I think of myself being in that situation.

Maybe it's because I'm neurodivergent and need my own space, maybe it's the idea alone of being trapped,

100

or maybe I just know too many horror stories that start off with that very same premise.

101

I've watched The Shining too much.

102

I'd be apprehensive in that situation too.

103

Betting on people's relationships?

104

It's fine in fanfics, I guess.

105

Overused in my opinion but in real life, it's just weird and invasive.

106

If I found out someone I knew bet on me getting together with someone else, I'd be pissed.

107

Maybe some others might not relate to this, but matchmaking.

108

For most of my life, people have tried to play matchmaker for me, and I hate it.

109

My best friend is driven mad by the fact that I won't put myself out there to date very much, and it's so horrifying when people do this to me.

110

I don't like the idea of anyone but me choosing someone for me.

111

I know it comes from good intentions, but unless I greenlight it, I hate when it happens.

112

Which is too often.

113

Another trope, heavy clinginess.

114

It doesn't matter if it's unhealthy codependency or done as a cutesy pestering in a story.

115

In real life, it's a lot to deal with when someone is like that.

116

All the second, third, and one hundredth chances given to a troubled person who keeps messing things up.

117

No matter how difficult and hopeless it all looks, their loved ones persist and forgive and keep loving them.

118

Aww, so sweet.

119

I guess it would be nice to be this person.

120

In real life, I was the person giving chances and persisting in an abusive relationship until it destroyed me.

121

0 out of 10, do not recommend.

122

I've seen several shows where either the male

123

or female leads are really pushy and refuse to take no for an answer

124

and do everything they can to win over the counterpart lead.

125

It's cute when you know that's the person they're going to end up with.

126

When it's literally anyone else, it is annoying as heck, and you just want that person to disappear.

127

And it's kind of stalker-ish.

128

Person A breaks up with person B, and days or weeks later, B comes back to A and demands they get back together.

129

It's cute in fiction that is known for breakup and makeup cycles, but if it happened to me in real life,

130

I'd be like, no, I had my valid reasons for breaking up with you, even if you refused to believe them.

131

I agree so much on the soulmate AU stuff.

132

For me, it's all of it too, but especially the idea of your soulmate having telepathic access to your mind or emotions.

133

Like, no thank you, my mind is the only true privacy.

134

The f*ing soulmate goose.

135

I think I missed that one.

136

I think it goes, you and your soulmate encounter a goose that forces you to meet, because it does what geese do and chases you both with relentless frightening aggression.

137

That would be horrifying.

138

Geese are no joke.

139

Any trope that can be found in a Hallmark Christmas this movie, I loathe the very idea of it happening to me in real life.

140

To me, all of them.

141

Sorry guys, I just don't feel like actual real life romances are my thing.

142

Yes, I can't stomach most romance because so many of the tropes are really creepy and toxic to me.

143

Now, fighting back to back on the battlefield and patching each other up afterwards is something I can get behind.

144

But That's not fluffy.

145

It's absolutely fluffy.

146

The fluff is just a little bloody is all.

147

Me, looking to use all these tropes for horror and fiction.

148

It's all about execution.

149

Oh, I love executions.

150

Big thank you to my Patreon members, my little ruse.

151

Gooski55, Nebulatic Vexen, Donko42, John Huang, Laser Scorpio, Night Avenger, Mintara,

152

SomniphobicDanny, SavageOtters, Valzy, RGLawsRider, and TerabyteAIX.

153

154

155

156

I hope you guys are doing well.

157

Once again, thank you very much.

158

159

160

161

And I hope you guys are doing well.

162

Keep rocking on and being your best self.

163

Thank you to everyone else for watching.

164

Let me know in the comments, what is a fluffy trope that you think you wouldn't like to have happen in real life?

165

I think I've written quite a few relationships where it's cute on paper, but if I was in that position, if I was in that relationship,

166

I don't know if it would be as fun.

167

So let me know your examples.

168

I think that'd be fun to read.

169

I will see you in the next video.

170

I wish you all the best.

171

And until next time, this is Joey hopping on out.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
