This troper (Alice) is dating Bob. Bob is friends with Carrie. Carrie used to date Dylan. Carrie is still in love with Dylan. Dylan still likes Carrie. Alice likes Dylan. Dylan likes Carrie. Carrie and Alice are best friends. Dylan doesn't like Bob. Alice has a (somewhat) tumultous relationship with Bob, but doesn't want to leave a happy relationship for a supposed chance at another, or lose Carrie. In the meantime, Dylan's brother Eric likes Carrie, but Carrie doesn't like Eric, and Carrie's and Alice's friend Fiona doesn't like Dylan, Bob, or Eric but likes Carrie. Confused yet?

This Troper was in a relationship with a guy she'd known for ages. However he FaceHeelTurned. She broke up with him, and he now spends way too much time trying to nettle her, but he fails at it. Meanwhile, her good friend TheChick had broken up with and got back together with TheBoisterousBruiser, and while they were not a couple, he dated another girl, the Tsundere. While This Troper was still with her ex, she was reunited with a friend, Manic Pixie Dream Boy by his Mom. He'd had a thing for her for a while, but kept it to himself. After the breakup, he made his move. Around that time came a DitzyGenius, who is also a BottleFairy and wants into This Troper's pants. Right after him comes along another old friend, the KnightInSourArmor, and he's trying to romance Troper. There's also her best friend's brother, who's infatuation with her comes and goes, and a guy in medieval literature class. To make things even more fun, KnightInSourArmor and Manic Pixie Dream Boy are quite the HeterosexualLifePartners, and are either oblivious that they're going after the same girl or are pretending to be oblivious for friendship's sake. Oh, and the Tsundere is venting to Troper about what a whore TheChick is. No wonder Troper's best friend (the PerkyGoth) and her boyfriend (the Kuudere) are making graphs to keep up with it all.

UPDATE: Things have got weirder. The KnightInSourArmor disappeared for a while....and then came back with a girlfriend! Apparently he was using This Troper to make another girl jealous. Also, DitzyGenius apparently misinterpreted Troper's style of dress and frank attitude, and drew a false conclusion about her, and acted adopted a worldly demeanor to match. In reality, he Can'tActPervertedToALoveInterest.

Ok, so A is a guy. B,C, and D are girls. D is dating A, then dumps him when he transfers colleges. Cue first week of classes at the new college. C becomes best platonic friend of A. A and B meet in ballroom dance and really like each other. So A and B start seeing each other, but C has a crush on A, and A stills likes D while also liking B. So A gets confused, dumps B at instigation of C, then is taken back by D. This unlucky troper was B. Ai yi yi...very complicated.

When this troper was in 8th grade... let's see. A, B, and C liked D, D and E liked each other but can't be together due to their religions, F liked G who was D's cousin, and so on and so forth.

This troper's friend was involved in what looked like a "Love W". A liked B, B liked C, C liked D, and D liked E.

This troper's seen a couple of these develop in his anime club. A liked B, was kinda hot for C and D, all requited, but E liked B, F liked B AND D, G liked C and C left A for G, B liked C, H liked A, and let's kill this before this troper's head explodes.

7th Grade made this troper a fool. This Troper was A. Ok so A likes B, B likes A, A lusts over C, C is friends with B, C is unaware of A's existence, B is unaware of A's lustfullness, everyone thinks A loves B. Kind of a LoveTriangle, yet with complications of who likes who.

Adding on: D and E pretend to like A. C hates A.

That's because you haven't seen MY class: A likes B and C, had a relationship with D. E liked A and F who was in a relashionship with G. However, G, F and E are best friends. C liked H. B liked I. Then J comes in and falls for B AND K but is loved by L (a male version of this trope). A left D for B and is a very close friend with J. G left F and there's a situation of WillTheyOrWontThey between G and E that became tired of G's undecisions and started to move on A or M. And L became also interested in A. AND etc... They haven't killed each other yet!!! Any questions?

OMG! This describes this troper's circle of friends to a T. Made worse, because he himself is guilty of attraction to multiple females within the circle.

Oh jeez, Eight grade was this to a T. A liked B, B liked A and C, D liked C, A, B, E, and G, G didn't like anyone, E liked B...lord, it was complicated as hell.

This troper watched from the outside of one: Everybody thinks A likes B, including B. A tries to set up B with C, and C likes B's best friend D. E pretends to like D so that she can embaress D in public, but D actually likes F. F is bi, this it turns into a Love HumongousMecha. F likes G, and G has had an affair with H. H likes A, who denies her love for D, and I'm not quite sure who is which sexuality anymore.

This troper's {{Nakama}} seems to be in the middle of one, though it's admittedly not as bad as most of the examples on this page. A likes B, and so does C. B appears to reciprocate with A, but is a MasterOfTheMixedMessage so none of us know for sure. Meanwhile, D and C insist that they aren't going out, but D keeps acting like C's boyfriend. E and F both like ''somebody'', but none of us knows who it is (hopefully different somebodies). G appears to be asexual, though. *phew*

If this troper's high school class would be displayed as a directed graph, in 8th grade a complete Hamiltonian circle could be found (with the exception of some external observers who either weren't interested in any romantic relationship at all, or just not with classmates). Serious amounts of shit hit the fan on a ClassTrip later that year. This troper as an external observer made notes to turn the whole thing in a play later, only to realize, that it would make a horrible one - without notes it couldn't be followed.

This troper's friend in highschool made a chart showing all the relationships and crushes and friendships, then a little arrow was added so you could play roulette and choose someone to hook up up.

This happened at a summer program for music that this troper attended in high school. Three best friends included A (female), B (female) and C(male). Pretty much every male around, including C (who had a girlfriend), was attracted to A. B was dating a guy back home, but found herself drawn to C. D was much less obvious about his crush on A, but B found out about it later. E had a very obvious crush on A, but it was clear that A found him annoying. E's friend F also liked A, but didn't say anything because he didn't want to incur E's anger. The program was only three weeks, and nobody acted on the attraction, but D drew a flow chart demonstrating everyone's feelings. About a year later, A, B, C, D and E reunited for A's birthday, and there were hints of attraction between B and D, especially when B got her foot injured in a door and D carried her inside. All parties were now single, but C had told B that he would never date her no matter how single he was. E was now convinced that he was in love with A. Again, nobody acted on any of these crushes. Within the next few years, they all ended up dating people outside the group.

Seriously folks, whose highschool '''''isn't''''' like this?

This troper's wasn't; combination of a single-sex school and a complete and in retrospect perhaps rather odd lack of HoYay.

Try spreading it out across 4-5 schools. Montana Eastern-B Speech and Drama leads to one of the most perplexing dodecahedrons I've come across. A goes out with B, who just happens to be the sister of C, who once dated A's sister D. Meanwhile, A begins dating F, who had been played on and off for a year by C. C's ex-girlfriend G is currently dating H, who has also dated B and D at different times. I watches cautiously from the outside, as he too has been involved with B and D, and has also helped A out of a steep depression. Now keep in mind most of these people go to completely different schools and only get to see each other at the speech meets.

Think love is complicated? Try {{Diplomacy}}! The dynamics in a game ThisTroper is playing, if you replace "alliances" and "warfare" with "love" and "hate", read something like this: E got married to R in WorldOfWarcraft, but just stopped reluctantly dating the infuriatingly foolish G, who hasn't spoken to E for the past month. Meanwhile, E's also having a torrid affair with I, who's engaged to A, and A and I have this plan to kill T, who's too busy planning the violent death of R to notice. F and E were together last year, but they broke up acrimoniously, and both of them did it because they suspected the other was beginning a relationship with G -- which F turned out to do. Then R and G can't agree who'll kill each other first, while R and A were seen bickering at this dinner for two. I and R are jealous of each other, mostly because of their aforementioned mutual affection for E. Oh, and G and A might be friends with benefits. This is all considered well and normal in the game, as long as somebody dies within a couple of years.

This troper does her best to stay out of these so she can just sit back and be sympathetic while hiding her secret amusement at the ridiculousness. Then she was informed that she was, in fact, now included in the dodecahedron. There was a chart. It was complicated enough to justify someone drawing a chart to keep track of it all. There wasn't any kind of shape, it was just a mass of names and lines, like a spiderweb a spider on speed would build. After seeing such chart she discounted two as not mattering because they merely thought she was attractive, and to be honest who doesn't? She promptly told the third that he needed to "stop it. Just stop it right now." Fucking spiderwebs.

This troper and his wife are polyamorous. This sort of thing is inevitable, but in a ''good'' way.

The school Mira-chan attends has a LoveDodecahedron that goes beyond the school, meaning it's a bit complicated to draw. This didn't stop two of my classmates from tracing a "love tree" in the middle of one class. It's partly serious.

You go to any high school band and there's a whole mess of this going on. At This Troper's high school, it was no different. She (we'll call her M) was best friends with J. She had an on and off crush on J all through school. J dated K, wanted to date P, and also dated M's older sister S. Meanwhile M pined for C for 2 years before W started to steal her heart even though she didn't mean to do it. Meanwhile J's younger sister Q was crushing on W. M's "friend" L always found a way to undermine M with all the crushes she had and eventually dated C and W at different points of time. M's sister S pined for N who was carrying out an illict affair with X who was dating R. J also shared a lot of HoYay with G up to a point that M tried to get a whole betting pool to try to get J and G to kiss (didn't work) and she may or may not have written FanFic about them as a gag. This was all while J was dating S too. All the while this was all happening, we all played music and had lots of fun. So there's that.

So true. This troper's high school, however, took it UpToEleven with an eerily large amount of SoapOpera drama mixed in. *takes deep breath* The shape starts with A, the bisexual male saxophone player who everybody in the school liked (except the Troper). Said A was in a relationship with B, the quirky, nerdy yet hyper-cute male trumpet player, which this Troper (henceforth referred to as C) had a mad crush on (resulting in no love lost between A and C, though neither A nor B knew the reason). A and B eventually argued and split up, with A shortly afterward dating female flautist D, which sent B into the arms of E, the 1st chair violinist. Naturally, C was crushed that he was not chosen although he was a bit too busy fighting off the advances of F, a nice, but somewhat creepy female clarinetist. C revealed all this to his childhood friend G, a bass player, who revealed that he had a thing for A. About one month later, A and B got back together after A and D didn't work out and B and E decided to remain good friends. At this point, C's crush on B was getting worse, and (in a moment that will shame me forever) started to spread bad rumors about A around the school, only to get called out (privately) by F and G. F realized at this minute that I wasn't what she thought I was and stopped pursuing me. E walked in on this conversation, and, thinking C had just been dumped by his girlfriend, started to comfort him, in which C picked up that E might have developed a thing for C. The next day, C was going to apologize to A... the day A had a complication with his heart medication and...well...that screwed up the whole thing.

This troper is partially in one. A (Supposedly) likes B, who likes A back. C likes A and is good friends with B, so it's morally troubling to go after A since B has a crush on him also. D (Supposedly) likes C, who C has no feelings for him whatsoever. There's no proof that A and D have crushes on B and C but it is hinted at extremely. I, unfortunately, am C in this case. It's not fun.

This troper has witnessed one. Person A likes person B, who also has some sort of confusing relationship with persons C and D, while also falsely being accused of also liking various others. She eventually hooked up with person E, but they broke up a day later, due to some sort of communication problem. This drama has apparently been going on since 2005 (Long before this troper started witnessing) and is much more confusing.

Try to keep track: I'm person A. I like B, but she likes C, who is dating person D. Throw in B's good friend E, who A once had a crush on, who is bisexual and is being chased by her ex-boyfriend F. Also, B dated G, who didn't even go to our school, but still liked C. Now she dumped G and is chasing after C again. C likes B, and eventually dumps D. Also, there is now person H, who person A has a bit of a crush on but still likes B. B and C are now offically dating, even though person I is taking B to the prom, where person I fell in love B. C tried to make B choice, so she chose I but still kind of likes C. Mean while E likes J, but is too nervous to tell him. A, C, F, and H are still single. Hopefully A and H will have a PairTheSpares moment, but right now, it doesn't seem very likely.

Okay, James Logan High School, while home to numerous Ax Crazies, also has its share of...odd romances. Shaun loves Molly, who loves Jake, but Jake has been seeing Anne. Anne is bisexual and has been screwing a girl on the side. Sharon has a crush on me, and on Sean Chen, who has a gay crush towards me, and there were hints Molly was cheating, and she previously had two other boy friends, both of them I did not get along with. Daniel is crushing on Anne, and has just broken up with Janine. And I have not gotten to the Freshmen yet...

I am H.(because screw orderly letters) I have been strongly attracted to S for several years. S was attracted to K. K was once attracted to J, but during the time period this happened, was making plans with S. And so, upon realizing this, H hit it off with J. Fast-forward a few months later. K made a decision to drop S, who to reiterate, H was attracted to, for J and J dropped H for K. S was messed up for a while, but my Undying Loyalty eventually won over S(despite a short term person C that was attracted to S and that situation damn near broke my heart), and now she is planning on living with me when we are both able, before taking me and planting me firmly over in the UK as per their immigration laws. K and J are married and expecting, and person C... I dunno what happened to him. Never liked him, never followed up.

This troper was once sucked into one of these, to his eternal misfortune. The setting: the Academic Decathlon team of a small Catholic high school (so no {{HoYay}}/{{LesYay}}, or else). Start with A (male), who is dating E (female) - but also shows interest in K (female), who is attracted to S (male). Introduce C (female), who doesn't like anyone, but hates E with a burning passion (no, not that kind) and doesn't have to play by the rules. Add in M (female), who is hopelessly in love with her collection of shoes. For extra fun, throw in J (male) and P (male), who aren't attracted to any of them - both have girlfriends off the team - but will gladly cause additional havoc just because they can. And then, of course, we come to yours truly (male), who is increasingly attracted to M but knows it wouldn't last, is rivals with C, and is ''supposed'' to be the guy in charge of stopping these relationships before they start.

This troper is vaguely confused. If you don't actually think you'd having a lasting future with M, it seems to him that you'd be better off seeing if you can work anything out with C and live the high life she apparently lives where most rules don't apply to her. Since this troper assumes this is highschool, anything long term is unlikely anyway, so you might as well get the most out of it as you can. What's more if they expel you for gender preferences you can likely sue, as this troper is moderately certain that violates a law. It certainly would in the work place.

With the benefit of hindsight (six months of time to think did wonders for my judgment), I agree that hooking up with C would probably have been the smartest choice if I hadn't been quite so stubborn at the time. As for the gender preference issue, I didn't actually have a problem with it; I thought my teammates did - which they didn't, as it turned out (see below), so it became a moot point.

The situation ultimately resolved itself: C had E kicked off the team, K broke up with S, A may or may not have slept with K, I nearly hooked up with M before deciding I didn't want to spend my the remainder of my life shopping for shoes, and our coach's blood pressure went through the roof trying to keep it all straight. Oh, and P walked in on all the girls while they were sleeping.

Okay, so in 6th grade, A(girl) and B(boy) were in a relationship, but then broke up. A tried to convince C(girl) that it was because B liked her, and for some reason D(boy) who always really got on C's nerves confirmed this. Then in 9th grade C likes E(boy) who doesn't realize that she exists, then suddenly realizes that she also likes D, who she hasn't spoken to since 6th grade. I am C. This sucks.

Update! Things have become much more complicated. C has three best friends, F, G, and H (all girls). F was going out with J(boy), who happened to have the same first name as E, just to confuse things. However, J liked G, and G liked him back, and so J and F broke up. J and G went out for a while, but they "sort of" broke up for some silly reason this troper does not understand. Meanwhile, K(boy) confided in G that he liked H and another friend L(girl), but G promptly told everyone since no one really likes K all that much. H was extremely creeped out by this and confided in C. F, G, H, and three other close friends M, N, and P (all girls) know that C likes E. Of these, C is closest to H and M. M already knows about D, but C can't tell H because they have an inside joke that D doesn't count as a person (long story) and H thinks it's weird to like multiple people. Meanwhile, M is seeing someone without her parents' permission, N has a serious case of unrequited crush for someone in the homeroom she shares with C, and P has just gotten her eleventh boyfriend. It's not really convoluted so much as really, really, BIG, much to this troper (C)'s chagrin.

Eighth and ninth grade were like this in my circle, A B C D E and I are male while F G H are female: In eighth B likes G and G likes B but C pretends to like G while really liking H, H likes C D and E and F likes D. In ninth A likes H but won't say anything, H dated E over the summer and C off/on during the school year, E still likes H but H doesn't like him so E pretends to like F, F likes newcomer I and I likes her back but F has a boyfriend. D moved away and B & G are dating. By grade twelve we all worked ourselves out, thankfully.

Avid troper posting anonymously using public account. Here's my class' LoveDodecahedron: A has a crush on B, B is oblivious to A's love, B is friends with C, C may or may not have a crush on A. Until now it's a classic triangle. But wait!!! D is friends with E, and may or may not have a crush on B, F or G. F is also a friend of B. G is in an official relationship with H, and is friends with E and I. I and J used to be a couple, but they broke. J still appears to love I, but it's not clear. J is friends with K, who might or might not have a crush on either B or F. Thirteen days ago A confessed to B. ... This Troper is A.

Hehehe... ItGotWorse! J is confirmed to no longer love I and instead is in an official relationship with L. M, a person never heard of before, made a (possibly fake and just-for-trolling) love confession to A. Meanwhile more and more clues point to the theory that C has a (really big) crush on A.

In a developing story, This troper (A) likes B. B likes C, C likes D, and D likes A. Sounds simple, right? Bzzt. D stalks A occasionally, and A and C are friends, as are B and D. And now, apparently E likes D as well, and D may or may not like E back. And naturally, A's other, best friend F also used to (and may still) like D. Oh, the shenanigans.

I have 6 crushes, A is a friend of mine from when I was 8 who is probably considering dating another friend of mine, B is a popular girl who likes him for being a nice guy, but is good friends with a guy who hates me, C is a girl I knew while I was in Chemistry who I made a subtle confession to and received no comment back who is probably dating a bad guy, D is a girl who came to our school last year who recently stopped dating an old friend of mine, E is a girl who just joined our school who I know nothing else about, F is a girl who I knew from Drama who was slightly odd, but very hot. Anyone else confused? I sure am!

This Troper would literally run out of letters in the alphabet. And obviously, it's only gotten worse since then.

For this Troper, his friendship circle's romance is complex entirely due to one person. This person is a friend of his, a girl. Everyone she meets falls for her. This includes, but is not limited to: almost all of her friends, guys she just met, some girls she just met, her ostensibly straight female best friend, more than one StalkerWithACrush and in once case this troper recalls, a guy who had never met her but had heard her described. It's not unheard of for couples she knows to both like her. Unfortunately this mess has left her with years' worth of relationship neuroses which has rendered her fairly messed up and pretty much asexual. Everyone else has their own little things involving, at most, four or five people, but she turns the whole thing into a LoveDodecahedron just by connecting all these up.

This isn't as much a love dodecahedron as a bromance/love dodecahedron.. I'm madly in love with dude A, who considers me a friend, and considers dude B to be a brother. I'm decent friends with dude B. Dude A used to be in a relationship with dude C, whom I am friends with, and knows dude B to some degree. Dude D is expressing worry over my powerful emotions for dude A, and he also happens to be friends with dudes A and C, as well as me. Dude D and dude E dislike each other; however, dude E is good friends with me, and sort of knows dude A. Dude F considers me a brother and I sort of like him, while dudes A and D find him laughable. Dude F has a huge crush on dude G, who is friends with dude H, who just happens to absolutely despise me. Dudes G and H also dislike dudes A and C-E. Dude I sort of loves me (not romantically according to him), and is in love with dudes J and K; he also sort of knows dude A. Oh, and then girl A is brother-and-sister with me. Add the "gay stalkers" in, who fantasise about raping my mother and I, and you've got a lot of confusion.

TheLibby and her friends seem to have one. S is in love with JH and JP while dating T. JH is her ex, who she still obsesses over, and he is dating N, and people ship him with T and L, whos boyfriend broke up with her because he thought she was in love with him. JP is actually dating SL, who is known for sleeping round. V and P are dating, but P is cheating on her with E (her best friend) behind her back, and he also got A pregnant. K, H and B are fighting over D, who is currently with R. I have a chart of it somewhere.

Oh boy...\\ This Troper = A\\ Current Girlfriend = B\\ Exgirlfriend One = C\\ Exgirlfriend Two = D\\ Good Friend = E\\ Jackass boyfriend one = F\\ Jackass Boyfriend Two = G\\ B's close friend = H\\ A and B are together.\\ C loves A but is in a bad relationship with F. A is aware of C's feelings.\\ D loves A but this was not revealed until recently. Used to be with G but the relationship ended badly. Now G is with an ex-friend of B. D admits to being atrracted to G, but does not love him.\\ E loves A and kept the crush secret for a year and a half. A has no romantic feelings for E.\\ H loved A but moved on after A and B got together. H was the main reason that B was concerned about dating A.\\ Whew...

In the {{nakama}} this troper's a part of... A liked B. B and A were (and are) "just friends." B liked C. C didn't like B. D liked B. B didn't like D, he only liked C. Along came E, who became good friends with A and B. F ended up joining the nakama with the intentions of getting into B's pants, but everyone saw it and F was no longer welcome in the nakama. E ended up convincing B to date E, which effectively shook up the already-struggling friendship between A and E, but the relationship between B and E lasted about three days. The damage had been done with A and E, and so E left the nakama. A and B grew into closer friends, which made D a little iffy about the group. B met G outside of the nakama, and left the nakama apart from A, which effectively meant just leaving D. Meanwhile, E and F became good friends, and met G unaware that G and B were dating. E, F, and G were good friends until B and G got together which E and F learned about through Facebook. E and F ended up playing the silent treatment against A, B, C, D, and G. D was especially angered about this because D didn't feel D belonged anywhere. A and C never liked D, but A and C allowed D to hang out with them. A and H knew each other, but were never close. E and H became an item. One day, A and D met I and J, but A and D didn't like I and J. D still liked B, A was ready to move on, and K came along. A and K dated twice but they weren't compatible. I and J never heard about the incompatibility, so both turned their attention to D who didn't reciprocate. A, B, E, and H all knew L, and L and A became friends, which B was jealous of even with his attachment to G. B and G are still together, E and H are still together, A, D, K, I, J, and L are single, and C is with M (who nobody mentioned knows) and F is with N (again, who nobody mentioned knows). Whoa.

OK, try to keep up: TheSmartGuy likes TheChick, who is dating MagnificentBastard, who hates The Smart Guy (no FoeYay involved). The Smart Guy also likes FriendToAllLivingThings (who is dating GeniusDitz) and {{Meganekko}} (who also likes Genius Ditz). And both Friend To All Living Things and Meganekko like The Smart Guy's best friend, TallDarkAndSnarky, who likes {{Pettanko}}, who is dating TheQuietOne. And pretty much everyone likes YamatoNadeshiko -- ''everyone''. Also crushing on Yamato Nadeshiko are Genius Ditz, IllBoy and BrilliantButLazy (who is dating Yamato Nadeshiko's best friend, CuteBruiser). Both Cute Bruiser and Friend To All Living Things like Ill Boy. Enter ManicPixieDreamGirl, who has her own legion of suitors, which includes BunnyEarsLawyer, who.......you get the idea. Seems like a lot of love is unrequited.

This troper (A) was dating B, but A was actually more interested in C, which is why A decided she had to break up with B. After that, A dated D for a while, even though she was still interested in C, who was now dating E. E broke up with C and moved on, while D broke up with A and started dating her ex-boyfriend, F, again. Now, C and A are both single, and A can't stop pining for C or D, neither of whom realize A still wishes she could be with them. Even worse, D is now single again, but seems to have no idea A is still interested, and she won't stop hitting on G. G, of course, is involved in a long-distance relationship with her girlfriend H, but they're off and on quite frequently, sometimes with F dating G. Yes, being bisexual makes these things even more complicated sometimes.

Okay, so. A, the girl, loves B, the guy. C, the other girl, loves D, the other guy. Good, right? WRONG! Everyone except those involved can tell that B has a major crush on D. This makes everything very awkward. Then there's D's work buddy, E, who used to have a crush on C. E's ex, F, still harbors a soft spot for E, but every now and then says something really out there that indicates feelings for C. C, meanwhile, doesn't even ''know'' what to think because before A came along, she and B had a bit of UST as well. And A can't help but notice that D is majorly attractive... GAWD.

This troper knows a guy (V) who had a girlfriend, whose name I don't know. Then out of the blue, she and V's sister died very close together. Before that, V had a boyfriend, (E). Currently, E still has feelings for V despite being in a relationship with L (not the one from DeathNote), and V has a mad crush on another guy (S), who has a girlfriend (A). S and V are VitriolicBestBuds with a ridiculous amount of HoYay and BelligerentSexualTension on the side, to the point where even S's girlfriend ships them. Meanwhile, C1, a friend of S, V, and A, is in love with this troper's close friend, T, who was once creeped out by him, although recently they've become friends. Meanwhile, a girl (C2) loves C1. So in short, in this LoveDodecahedron EveryoneIsBi, AllLoveIsUnrequited, and most of those involved are ObliviousToLove, even though EveryoneCanSeeIt. It's... complicated. I actually had to draw a diagram to work it all out.

So around here it goes: Min loves Tempe, and they're extremely close. Min's best friend Zsa Zsa thought about dating Barney, but gave up when he seemed more interested in Tempe, who didn't like him back. Zsa Zsa has recently discovered that their mutual friend Charlize is bi, while they were away together at sleepaway camp, although Charlize is dating Arthur, who Zsa Zsa sort of likes. Charlize fell madly in love with her best friend Lili, and they slept together once, but although Charlize made an AnguishedDeclarationOfLove, Lili is officially straight, and so Charlize dates Arthur instead. Tempe warned Min that Lili was batshit insane, but didn't want to prejudice Min against her without giving Lili a chance to be good. Then Min heard from Charlize that Lili thought that LipstickLesbian Min had a thing for her (Lili), despite Min having met Lili all of four times and Min being really, ''really'' obviously in love with Tempe. Min told Zsa Zsa, who advised her not to tell Tempe, (although Min was dying to), because then she would let on how much she was in love with Tempe. And then Tempe told Min about what Lili had done to her years ago, and while Charlize is trying to persuade Lili that Min isn't in love with her (but can't explain that Min is in love with Tempe, because only Zsa Zsa knows), Min is trying not to seem too repulsed by Lili. Min, Zsa Zsa, Charlize, Arthur, Barney, Tempe, and Lili are all nominally friends.

And it gets worse...Min has been told by Charlize that Lili told Tempe than Min was in love with Zsa Zsa. Which is plausibly, because Zsa Zsa is a touch-touch person, but also completely screwed up because Min can't tell Tempe that she doesn't love Zsa Zsa without risking letting Tempe know that she loves ''her''.

Viandas. Hoo boy...lets see...Johnson loves Neira, who is manipulating him. Neira is in love with Kincadis, who is in love with Natasha and Jay. Neira is in a purely carnal affair with Robert, and Robert likes Ophelia as a friend, but she loves him deeply...too deeply. Sebastian loves Ophelia, but she dislikes him. Nina loves Sebastian, but she is a Loli so she is thought to be much younger than she really is, so he ignores her. And Nina loves Johnson, and has a rivalry with May Lin, who is in love with both Johnson and Terence, who is technically her cousin due to adoption. Terence has a thing going with Darric, who likes Johnson a little too much for brothers. Oh, and Kall raped Natasha and has a big crush on Johnson's father, Frederick, who has thirty wives.

Attackanator. If I remember correctly: TransparentCloset secretly loved AmbiguouslyGayPuritySue, who was cheating on him with SurferDude, who loved EventheGirls, who loved and was getting her advances spurned by BrokenBirdwho was also StraightGay, who was trying to help TransparentCloset get out, while he was dating BiTheWay, who was the sister of PuritySue and was dating SurferDude, who was really good friends with AmbiguouslyGay, though he hated BrokenBird. Now on to the complicated part... BrokenBird/StraightGay use to be dating AmbiguouslyGay, but we broke up cause BrokenBird proposed and I wasn't ready to be engaged, so I/AmbiguouslyGay started to hit on transparentCloset, making him go deeper in (out of fear, we assume) and turn into an ArmoredClosetGay. Two days after that, he walked in on PuritySue (his than-girlfriend) doing it with SurferDude, who was later dumpped by BiTheWay, who is currently dating TransparentCloset/ArmoredClosetGay, and hasn't talked to PuritySue in about a month, which has turned EvenTheGirls into a complete DeadpanSnarker, making BrokenBird hate SurferDude cause now EvenTheGirls has moved on and making me choose to be friends with either him or SurferDude. And yes, there is more, but my head hurts from thinking about how screwed-up my group of friends is... Yeah... and it's STILL ONGOING.

If I remember correctly, the LoveDodecahedron my friends were involved in went something like this... J(male) and M(female) were going out and broke up. J and M still liked each other, but J also liked S(female), and M also liked H(bisexual male). H and M started going out and so did S and J. L(female) had a crush on J, but didn't tell him. S and J broke up because S liked a bunch of other men and was ashamed. M and H sort of but not really broke up because of M's lingering feelings for J, but agreed to keep acting like boyfriend and girlfriend. J still liked M but ended up crushing on L as well, who had previously tried to remain uninvolved. J and L started going out, but L knew that J still kind of liked M. M and H would back together, but M still feels guilty for liking J. Meanwhile, H has a lot of gay guys going for him and asking him out seeing as he's technically single. Yeah, I don't know either. (this troper is L)

Alice and Bob are in love. Alice is a high school senior in Texas, Bob is a college sophomore in Florida. Bob befriends a trio of female best friends: Caroline, Daisy, and Enid. Alice doesn't mind, because she's pretty low key and her and Bob's love is the sickeningly sweet kind. Now comes the dodecahedron:

Caroline has been crushing on Bob since day one. Bob had no idea. An affectionate friendship-type hug was misconstrued as an affectionate love-type hug, causing Caroline to confess her feelings to Bob. Bob gives her the "if only it weren't for Alice" speech, and the two of them decide to remain friends.

Daisy developed feelings for Bob shortly before the Bob-Caroline misunderstanding. Not a few minutes after said incident, Daisy confessed her feelings to Bob. The contents of the conversation remain a mystery.

Enid may or may not have some attraction to Bob. This is most likely a backhanded effect of Bob's confession of his previous crush on her, or else a case of extra female hormones increasing Enid's libido. Either way...

The theory of why the three girls all "drank the Kool-Aid", as it were, was best described by Daisy: Bob is a NiceGuy, which is the cornerstone of the foundation of what all of the girls are looking for.

Cookies to the first person to guess whether this troper is Bob, Alice, Daisy, Enid, or Caroline.

My money is on Caroline.

1 + 4 flirt and have some sexual tension, also banter like it's a sport, 2 + 4 are officially in a relationship, also spend alot of time together, get along, 1 + 3 are dating, possible relationship there, though 3 + 2 have the most in common and 1 + 4 have momants of sparkage. And that's without, maybe 4 other people, 3 lusting after 1 and 1 is lusting after 2 others.

FML. #QUOTE# And person number 9 still after 1....
