Yeah, I feel similarly about the Slap Slap Kiss dynamic. I'm down for some gentle teasing and snarking at other people, but too many times this kind of couple just seems to be bent on destroying each other's self-esteem.

It's sort of related to my all time least favorite fictional relationship problem, which is the sort where everything would be resolved if they'd just ADMIT THEY HAVE A PROBLEM AND TALK TO EACH OTHER ABOUT IT. To be fair

That is one of my number one pet peeves in any work of fiction ever, if not the number one.

It's so overdone that it feels like a cheap excuse to introduce needless conflict or prolong the plot because they ran out of ideas.

Lately, I've taken to stop seeing films, shows, etc. that use it, and I don't regret it.

I vaguely remember seeing it done well a few times, but I can't even remember where or when. That should probably say enough about how often it's done badly.

It's also specially jarring when the characters would normally talk things out and they suddenly don't for that episode or book or whatever, and no explanation for their change in behavior is ever given. Like, they've been preoccupied with something else, or got into a nasty "not-talking-to-you" fight, or I don't know, something that makes sense for them.

I have honestly almost started writing fics just to respond to the irritating fanfiction where an excuse for cheating is 'WELL CHARACTER X WANTED THIS TYPE OF SEX BUT FOR SOME REASON DECIDED THAT BECAUSE THEIR PARTNER COULDN'T PSYCHICALLY INTUIT THIS THAT THEY WOULD BANG CHARACTER X'. I mean, when the problem could be solved with a "Hey, honey, do you mind if we try something different in the bedroom", but the author expects me to believe that this character is sooo easily embarrassed that instead of having that talk, they'd just go out and fuck their cousin instead- okay, I'm ranting about a specific fic now, and I should stop.

You could always write the fic and make a sockpuppet to post it.

You know you want to.
