* Music/{{Miserable}} describes a woman like this, if the line "You make me completely Miserable" is anything to go by.

* [[ImpliedTrope Implied]] in the music video for Music/{{Miserable}} in regards to the giant woman. [[spoiler: It doesn't get much more Bastard Girlfriend than devouring your [[Music/{{Lit}} boyfriend, his brother,]] and [[KillEmAll all]] [[Music/{{Lit}} of his friends]] for no apparent reason.]]

When the Jerkass realizes his friend may well be on his way to date her, it's played for laughs that [[DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale he doesn't warn him.]] Luckily, the friend is TooKinkyToTorture so it all works out.

* WebVideo/AskThatGuyWithTheGlasses' sexual sadism towards [[DepravedBisexual everyone]] he meets is very often played for {{fanservice}}.
* Creator/{{Nigahiga}} parodies this with his "Nice Guys" video, and he [[SelfDeprecation self-identifies]] (exaggeratedly) as one in "The Worst Boyfriend Ever".

* Haruka Hasegawa from ''Manga/{{Moyashimon}}'' constantly pummels Misato and Kawahama for being slackers or otherwise annoying her. However, while Misato and Kawahama both consider her hot, they're turned off and intimidated by her bad temper.

** Considering that [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters this is Love Pistols]], you have quite a few dysfunctional relationships running around, but special mention has to go to Hiromasa and Shima's. Originally, they were sex friends in high school and split up when Hiromasa's family moved him to a different prefecture, and then wound up working in the same hospital in their mid-twenties, eventually re-starting the sexual relationship they had before. Despite how much he tries to distance himself, Shima is in love with Hiromasa but believes that if he tried to get any closer to him, he'd lose interest and leave him. In a moment of weakness, he uses a conception device that the Madarui use for same-gender reproduction (his thinking is along the lines of [[SomeoneToRememberHimBy "at least he'd have something of him"]] [[LoveMakesYouDumb when they eventually broke up]]). Consequently, [[MisterSeahorse he gets pregnant]]. Now, ''here's'' the bit where it gets creepy. [[spoiler: It turns out that Hiromasa has actually been in love with Shima for years, and he came back from Kyoto to work in the same hospital as him for the expressed purpose of getting closer to him.]] Okay, that's fine, right? Well, here's the thing...[[spoiler: Hiromasa noticed the fact that Shima seemed to be able to brush their relationship off like it was nothing, and had, for months, without Shima's knowledge, [[{{Yandere}} been using a very powerful conception drug on him in order to get him pregnant so he could tie him to him and stop him from leaving him.]] When Shima finds out that he's pregnant, despite being shocked beyond all belief, he blames himself, and Hiromasa not only ''lets him think that it's all his fault'', but [[IfICantHaveYou threatens to abort the child if it's not his]]. After things have calmed down a bit and Shima's sleeping in his arms, he remarks mildly in an internal monologue how nice it was to have miscalculated the extent of Shima's feelings for him and also how nice it was that ''[[MurderTheHypotenuse he wouldn't have to kill anyone for sleeping with or impregnating him]]''.]] Ladies and gentlemen, your Bastard Boyfriend incarnate.

[[folder:Western Animation]]
* WesternAnimation/{{Chozen}}: The title character is this to his boy-toy Hunter, who wants an actual relationship, but Chozen is only in it for the sex. Hunter eventually wises up and ditches him.
[[/folder]]

* Kyo in ''Manga/BlackBird'': wants to marry female lead Misao, who he has been in love with [[PuppyLove since they were children]], and [[IntimateHealing licks her erotically]] when she gets attacked by his fellow demons (which is often). Doesn't seem to care that she's not completely on board with either of these ideas. Then she falls in love with him...but the saddest thing is, [[StockholmSyndrome he's one of the few reliable allies that she has in the whole Tengu vs. humans deal]], so if she ''did'' fully spurn him, other Tengus would jump at the chance to kill/rape/eat her. [[TheChewToy Still sucks to be her.]] In the end, of course, he ''is'' willing to do anything (including killing his own brother) to keep her happy and safe at the expense of his own life, and he ''does'' [[PetTheDog show genuine kindness]] [[FriendToAllChildren to children]].

[[MostFanficWritersAreGirls Some fans]] love to turn Canon Characters into this trope, notably:
* Franchise/{{Batman}}: The Joker plays around with this trope in canon and fanworks towards Harley. Most notably the canon MindGameShip he directs towards Batman is fuel enough for some fans who take it further in fanfic for horror and titillation.
* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'':
** Sasuke Uchiha, whether it's Yaoi or Hetero. Can't be too hard to find.
** Neji Hyuga, especially when paired with [[KissingCousins Hinata]]. This trope gets downplayed when paired with Tenten.
** Madara Uchiha
* William Dunbar from ''WesternAnimation/CodeLyoko''--while not abusive in the show per se--is often written as abusive to Yumi or [[HoYay Ulrich]].
* Seto Kaiba from ''Anime/YuGiOh'': [[http://m31ru-ch4n.deviantart.com/art/TPNM-Cover-141912936 example.]]
** Also, try and find a [[SharingABody Yami Bakura/Ryo Bakura]] fanfic that ''doesn't'' have Yami Bakura mentally or even physically abuse his poor suffering host (and giving him his own body just to make the latter possible). Go on. We'll wait.
*** Challange accepted. [[http://sesshomaruswoman.deviantart.com/art/The-Possessed-Fanfic-Preview-245002178?q=gallery%3Asesshomaruswoman%2F9923519&qo=2 Behold,]] a [[PortmanteauCoupleName Tendershipping]] fic in which Ryo Bakura abuses his Yami!
* Yami Bakura, another ''Anime/YuGiOh'' character, in a good half of his romance fics. Example: ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4280755/1/Tainted-Soul Tainted Soul]]''
* ''Literature/HarryPotter'':
** [[DracoInLeatherPants Draco Malfoy]] in ''Literature/HarryPotter'' fanfic.
** Tom Riddle/Voldemort can be made into this for Harry in some SlashFic.
** Sirius Black seems to get this interpretation as well in some fics.
* [[AntiHero Edmund Pevensie]], from ''Literature/TheChroniclesOfNarnia'', is portrayed as this in some fics, especially the [[BrotherSisterIncest Edmund/Lucy]] ones. Well, it's not that hard to see him that way since he practically [[BigBrotherBully torments and mocks the poor girl]] for pretty much the entire first book. So it's almost {{canon}}...[[{{Squick}} without the romance part, of course.]]
** Although the second book prominently shows that he learned from his mistakes and is Lucy's strongest supporter when she keeps talking about seeing Aslan, the movie version still likes to portray him as [[TheDarkSide dark]] to an extent, due to his [[DeadpanSnarker snarkiness]] and witty character. They even switched his and Caspian's lines from the book, because, while Caspian was supposed to be tempted by evil in the third movie, they gave this role to Edmund and made him look like a jerk again when he fell into temptation for the second time, even though it was for a short period of time. That's why many fans still see him as the [[AntiHero bad one]]. And the bastard boyfriend title is easily used when it comes to Edmund Pevensie.
** It's somewhat canonical too, because, when Edmund fell into temptation for the second time, he actually [[WeCanRuleTogether tried to convince Lucy to join him when he wanted to obtain power]].
* ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'':
** Craig Tucker is portrayed as this in most fics, particularly the [[HoYay Craig/Tweek]] ones since he is...let's say, [[AntiHero not quite]] [[DeadpanSnarker a pleasant]] [[TheStoic character]]. In most stories, he either acts like a jerkass towards everyone, a bully, a sociopath or he just does anything to obtain what he wants, using methods [[MemeticMolester like rape or molestation]]. Amusingly enough, he completely averts the trope in canon after actually getting into an OfficialCouple with Tweek, instead proving to be supportive, surprisingly gentle, and only having Tweek's best interests at heart.
** Eric Cartman. Almost half of [[PortmanteauCoupleName Kyman]] ([[FoeYayShipping Cartman/Kyle]]) fics portray Cartman as a possessive, obsessed sociopath ([[SarcasmMode not that he's not like that in the real show, too]]) who wants to rape Kyle and torture him in all possible ways. Most of them are M-rated, too.
** Kenny [=McCormick=] also gets this portrayal in 90% of the fics that involve him, due to his infamous status of being addicted to sex and drugs in the show. In most stories, he's an obsessed pervert who molests almost everyone around him or the object of his desires.
* Flippy from ''WebAnimation/HappyTreeFriends'', and, good lord, to such an extent that almost the entire fandom sees him not only as an insane serial killer...but also as a serial rapist, due to the thousands of anime-styled drawings in which he [[MemeticMolester either molests or rapes]] {{F|anPreferredCouple}}laky or [[LauncherOfAThousandShips any other character]]. His rape involves sharp tools and blood, as well.
* Derek Venturi from ''Series/LifeWithDerek''. Yes, ''that'' ''[[Creator/DisneyChannel Life]] [[DomCom With]] [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids Derek]]''. The character is the [[{{Jerkass}} primary]] [[MagnificentBastard bastard]] of the show, but some stories exaggerate his negative traits to the point where he becomes an abusive sociopath who enjoys his [[FanPreferredCouple step-sister/love-interest]]'s suffering. Not that it's that much of a [[VillainProtagonist difference from the canon]].
* Nine times out of ten, the villainous half of [[FoeYayShipping a ship between enemies]] becomes this trope. [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Sephiroth]] is one of the more popular examples, especially in doujinshi, and, oddly enough, is portrayed as either type depending on the fangirl.
* ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'' has LOTS of fanon examples:
** Russia, the resident PsychopathicManchild and {{Yandere}}, is usually portrayed as this in fanworks that pair him up with someone, especially if it's with Lithuania or America (and admittedly, it's not easy to portray him as a decent boyfriend without [[DracoInLeatherPants running into the other extreme]]). As it stands, when Russia is paired with China, it can lead to either this or HappilyMarried.
** England can become this when fans take his [[{{Tsundere}} "tsun"]] side too far or become too enamored with the idea of him as a cocky, swashbuckling pirate claiming his love interest as his "possession" (with his favorite "love victims" being the ukefied Japan or America). And let's not get ''started'' on the Opium War and his fanon treatment of China and Hong Kong, which, more than once, has HK as actually England and China's ChildByRape (either via MisterSeahorse or China having been a SweetPollyOliver all along)...
*** This is also a disturbingly common AlternativeCharacterInterpretation that follows the "[[WhatIf What if England remained an Empire?]]" scenario. Apparently, the only way a Still-Imperial!England can be portrayed as is...a violent and abusive bastard who still dresses like a pirate shoots and beats up whoever dares raise their voice, and sexily abuses a Forever-Colony!America reduced to a whiny, ukefied LoveMartyr mess.
** Turkey is typically portrayed as this in [[FoeYayShipping Turkey/Greece]] and [[UnequalPairing Turkey/Egypt]] fanworks (although it's much less common for the latter). While some Turkey/Greece works veer into BelligerentSexualTension instead by making Greece into a defiant {{Tsundere}} on equal fighting ground with Turkey, many more Turkey/Greece works make it clear that as hard as Greece tries to fight back, Turkey thoroughly dominates him and is free to abuse and even rape him because he either wants to [[IHaveYouNowMyPretty put Greece in his place]] or [[ImAManICantHelpIt just can't control himself around Greece]], leaving Greece a [[BreakTheCutie broken and embittered man]] who [[StockholmSyndrome nonetheless can't help but]] [[LoveMartyr keep coming back to Turkey]]. Some fics have him go as far as raping Greece [[{{Ephebophile}} as a teen]] or [[PaedoHunt a child]], brainwashing Greece into being his slave, or even raping Greece ''explicitly'' [[AttentionWhore because he'd rather have Greece hate him than be indifferent towards him.]]
*** He also comes off as this in Turkey/Hungary fanworks set in the "Ottoman Hungary" times, i.e. in several online places, there's quite the speculation about the possibility of the "young!Prussia finds an injured young!Hungary all battered and half-naked after fighting the Ottoman Empire" strip being the aftermath to Turkey [[UnsettlingGenderReveal realizing that she's a girl]], [[SheIsAllGrownUp acknowledging how she's growing into a beautiful woman]]...and either tearing her clothes and ''raping'' her on the spot to [[StayInTheKitchen "show her what's her place in the Ottoman Empire"]], or [[ScarpiaUltimatum trying to forcibly get her]] [[SexSlave into his never-heard-of-before-in-canon harem]] (if she wasn't already there and was defeated while trying to run away, that is). If the fanworks are set ''after'' that time, however, it goes much more by the BelligerentSexualTension way, with an OlderAndWiser Hungary [[ActionGirl having the physical strength]] to keep Turkey's [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold lechery and/or jerkiness]] at bay.
*** Turkey/Japan fanworks are mostly free of this or at least don't have Turkey abusing or raping Japan. Even fanworks where Turkey's feelings for Japan are clearly one-sided portray him as a jealous but ultimately harmless HopelessSuitor at the very worst. Maybe because Turkey and Japan have always had a cordial history with each other.
*** Rather oddly averted with most Turkey/Iceland fanworks, ''even'' those in which Iceland is smacked with {{Ukefication}}. There are however a few with Ottoman Turkey kidnapping little/pre-teen!Iceland and putting him [[SexSlave in his harem]], "basing it off" the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkish_Abductions Turkish Abductions]] in Icelandic history.
*** In a kinda infamous Turkey/Ukraine doujinshii, Ottoman Turkey captures Cossack Ukraine (apparently representing the struggles between the Crimean Khanate and the Zaporoszhian Cossacks) after a battle. He then has her [[ShamefulStrip stripped naked]] and [[SexSlave delivered to his room]], where he rapes her and [[NotIfTheyEnjoyedItRationalization she ends up loving it]]. We're supposed to find it romantic.
** Poor Japan. Not only is he turned into a Bastard Boyfriend in numerous Japan/[insert any other Asian nation here] fanworks (which includes many Japan/China fanworks, pretty much all Japan/either Korea, Hong Kong, and/or Thailand fanworks, and even the few Japan/Taiwan fanworks that don't go the LadyAndKnight or HappilyMarried routes) thanks to his LawfulEvil [[UsefulNotes/ImperialJapan imperial history]], but he himself becomes the [[{{Ukefication}} weepy]] [[LoveMartyr victim]]...er, "lucky lover" of a Bastard Boyfriend in numerous America/Japan and England/Japan fanworks. The only pairing exceptions ([[TemptingFate so far]]) are Greece/Japan (whose reputation as the "[[HappilyMarried peaceful, content]], [[KindheartedCatLover cat-loving]] pairing you steer clear of if you love angst" is too strong) and minor pairings like Turkey/Japan and Netherlands/Japan (who don't get that many fanworks in the first place, at least in the English-speaking fandom).
** China (as either [[ImperialChina the Chinese Empire]] or [[RedChina Mao's China]]) sometimes goes from the LoveMartyr victim to the Bastard Boyfriend {{Yandere}} in China/Taiwan or China/Hong Kong fanworks, flanderising the country's "interest" into having them back (HK), or portraying the reason why they left him (Taiwan) as him stalking, abusing, raping, or even forcibly getting them hooked onto opium. Thankfully, it's not exactly common.
*** He's not even safe in China/England fanwork. There's a Pixiv fanartist who has this as a kink, making ImperialChina a Bastard Boyfriend who forces a ukefied England to dress up in imperial lady robes and go through [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot_binding footbinding]]. [[http://i54.tinypic.com/4h3v9i.jpg Even if the art style itself is not bad]]...
*** Even worse are the China/Japan fanworks that make ImperialChina a [[PaedoHunt pedophiliac]] {{Yandere}} who [[AbusiveParents physically, sexually, and psychologically abuses]] a completely ukefied Japan ever since he "discovered" him. (Or the fact that you can swap China and Japan's name in that sentence and replace "pedophiliac" with "sociopathic" and "discovered" with "conquered" [never mind that Japan never actually conquered China in real life, not even during WWII, and that China is actually the stronger nation nowadays] for a summary of at least 60% of Japan/China fanworks.)
** America gets this rep in more than one America/England and/or America/Japan badfic, with either England or Japan becoming the LoveMartyr to America's {{Jerkass}} or {{Yandere}} via {{Ukefication}}. Double points if it's a USA/Japan fic set in the American occupation times where America either punishes Japan for his role in UsefulNotes/WorldWarTwo by raping him or becomes a dangerous Yandere who threatens to bomb him again. Triple points if it's a "USUK" fic where the real reason for UsefulNotes/TheAmericanRevolution is either England's reaction to teenager!America [[DoubleStandardRapeMaleOnMale overpowering and raping him]], or America setting a spiteful {{plan}} in which he wants his "freedom" as a direct way to hurt and hate England (and often backed up by a France shown as a slutty, selfish EvilMentor [[RonTheDeathEater who leads America on *purely* to spit on]] [[PuritySue "poor" UK]] - way to flanderize the French role in the Revolution).
** While nowhere as common as Pirate!England, the renditions of Conquistador!Spain also tend to have more than one whiff of this trope. Fortunately, this happens more often than not in regards to the England/Spain or France/Spain pairings, which has a less chance of {{Ukefication}} than, i.e., Spain/kid-or-teen!Romano, Spain/soon-to-be-Empire!Netherlands, or Spain/teen-and-still-Imperial!Belgium.
** Two or three fans give this treatment to Prussia, too. This happens in some Prussia/Hungary (with a [[{{Chickification}} badly chickified]] Hungary, one may add), [[FoeYayShipping Prussia/Austria]] and/or [[BrotherSisterIncest Germancest]] fics, but it's usually a rare sight.
** When the BelligerentSexualTension between [[RedOniBlueOni Denmark and Sweden]] goes too far, the fanworks featuring this couple will make Denmark one of these. It's also a relatively common sight in [[VitriolicBestBuds Denmark/Norway]] fics: one of them had Denmark [[CrazyJealousGuy so deathly jealous]] of Norway's closeness to Iceland, that he has sex with Norway [[ForcedToWatch in front of Iceland]] [[{{Cuckold}} to "teach" Iceland that Norway is his boyfriend]].
** If we go to pure OriginalCharacter Realm, OC!Scotland is often portrayed by Japanese fans as a [[ViolentGlaswegian highly violent]] EvilRedhead who cruelly rapes and abuses a ukefied England.
* There are some fanfics out there that portray either Hibari or Mukuro from ''Manga/Reborn2004'' as a Bastard Boyfriend to Tsuna.
* Yu Kanda from ''Manga/DGrayMan'' sometimes tends to be made into a Bastard Boyfriend for Allen. And let's not even talk about Tyki Mikk...
* Either Roy Mustang or Envy in ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist''. With the latter, it's so common it's almost {{Fanon}} at this point, especially if they're basing the fic on the [[Anime/FullmetalAlchemist 2003 anime]] (where he's significantly more powerful, and his MO is basically ForTheEvulz).
* Kaede Rukawa from ''Manga/SlamDunk'' is frequently portrayed as this in fanwork to a ukefied Sakuragi. Yes, '''that''' [[BoisterousBruiser Hanamichi]] [[FieryRedhead Sakuragi]] is made into Rukawa's whiny and weepy uke.

* ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'' fics pairing [[TheIngenue Ventus]] with [[FoeYayShipping Van]][[ScrewYourself itas]] usually turn the latter into this.
* Heero Yuy, back when ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing'' was '''the''' yaoi fandom out there, was the poster boy for this trope. Fics where he sexily abused [[{{Ukefication}} Duo]], raped him and claimed to love him, killed or humiliated [[DieForOurShip Relena]] for daring to crush on him (which, of course, was ''[[DesignatedHero okay]]'', because she ''totally'' was a [[RonTheDeathEater pink-dressed]], [[RealWomenDontWearDresses girly]], [[{{Yandere}} Yandere whore]]) and committed other {{squick}}tastic deeds "because he loooooooved Duo so much" (like ''considering to keep Duo in a cage for his own sake'') were pretty much the hottest thing in those years, and fangirls ''loved'' such stuff.
* Ulquiorra Cifer in ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'' is transformed into this in {{fanon}}, particularly in some Ulquiorra/Orihime fics. This is usually featured along with DieForOurShip, most likely towards Orihime for not expressing romantic feelings towards him in canon. [[FlameWar And let's just leave it at that.]] It's also a popular interpretation of either Nnoitra or Aizen in any shippy stuff involving them, really not helped by ''both'' being infamous {{Memetic Molester}}s.
** Aizen, Grimmjow, Dark Ichigo, and Ulquiorra can become this towards Ichigo in fanfic sometimes.
* ''Series/{{Hannibal}}'' can be made into this for Will Graham. Not that it doesn't show up in the tv series too with all the manipulative twisted HoYay Hannibal directs toward Will.
* Ferid of ''Manga/SeraphOfTheEnd'' gets great enjoyment out of screwing with people's emotions and lives in canon and enjoys biting ones he finds attractive (which gives both the biter and the one being bitten immoral pleasure) which he does to [[DepravedBisexual both girls and boys]]. This carries over to fanfiction with Ferid's actions being written to include rape into the mix, particularly towards Mika, Yuu, and Krul whom he already demonstrates a particular interest in for their looks and dicking around with their emotions for kicks. In canon, if he was actually in a relationship with anyone he would definitely be an Unconflicted BastardBoyfriend.
* Hans/Elsa ''WesternAnimation/Frozen2013'' fanworks do this often whenever they're not [[DracoInLeatherPants sympathizing]] with Hans' character. It's a huge FanPreferredCouple, up there with [[IncestYayShipping Anna/Elsa]] and [[CrossoverShip Jack/Elsa]]. In contrast, Hans/Anna is rather uncommon and Hans is usually unsympathetically an abusive jerk in Hanna fanworks (they're usually about if Hans did succeed and have him showing his true colors after he marries Anna). Fans like the FoeYayShipping potential between Hans and Elsa so their relationship is often written as turbulent. This FanVid, ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1DqXnT-hIY Hans & Elsa - Hospital (AU:Broken Relationship)]]'', for example, has Hans constantly beating his wife out of jealousy, raping her, and flirting with other women. Despite this Elsa still loves him, we're supposed to feel bad when [[spoiler:Hans dies]], and the video isn't anti-Helsa.
* In Creator/AAPessimal's ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' fic ''Fanfic/WhyAndWere'', new Assassin graduate Ruth N'Kweze falls for a Bastard Boyfriend who is ''also'' a [[OurWerebeastsAreDifferent wereleopard]]. By the end of the story, she is very briefly married to him. The "very briefly" part is explained by her becoming a widow, having remembered she is first and foremost an Assassin. They don't call it "BlackWidow House" [[MeaningfulName for nothing]].
* At least half of all ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'' and ''Series/GameOfThrones'' fanfics that pair anyone with resident PsychopathicManchild Ramsay Snow portray him in this light. Doubles as a ''[[BastardBastard literal]]'' BastardBoyfriend. Part of this is due to AdaptationalAttractiveness, as he's described as ugly in the books, but in the series played by the drop-dead gorgeous Iwan Rheon. The most common victim is his canonical prisoner, torture & StockholmSyndrome victim, and NoYay partner [[spoiler:Theon Greyjoy]]. Other common victims include his wife in the books [[spoiler:Jeyne Poole]], [[CompositeCharacter his wife in the show]] [[spoiler:Sansa Stark]], and his GoodCounterpart [[HeroicBastard Jon Snow]].
** For those who prefer their sadists more aged and refined, Ramsay's father, [[SoftSpokenSadist Roose Bolton]], occasionally gets portrayed the same way. He's most frequently paired with his wife Walda Frey, or with the king he's second-in-command to [[spoiler:([[TheStarscream who he later murders]])]] Robb Stark. And of course, that's not mentioning the fics where [[ParentalIncest Roose is a]] BastardBoyfriend [[ParentalIncest to Ramsay...]]
* ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'':
** ''Fanfic/ATDALoveTriangleWithBettyCodyAndGwenny'': Geoff becomes a total {{Jerkass}} who mistreats and insults Bridgette on a regular basis. Even worse, despite breaking up, they're forced by contract to still be presented as a couple in the Aftermath episodes so Bridgette is stuck with him until the show's end.
** ''Fanfic/TotalDramaDomination''
*** Sky's ex Keith, who is one of the interns, is this to both her and especially Dave.
*** Devin. After Carrie breaks up with him, he tries to stay nice to her, but after being snubbed by her, he drops the nice guy and becomes one of the biggest jerks on the show. He eventually stops.
** ''Fanfic/UnbreakableRedSilkenThread'': Duncan, who is abusive, controlling, manipulative, and demanding, with just enough intelligence, guile, and charm to pull it off for years. Though it's unclear if he was always as bad as he is in the present, a flashback scene early on between Duncan and Gwen shortly after the end of World Tour shows at least the potential for such a mentality.

* Played for laughs in Music/TomLehrer's songs "The Masochism Tango" and "She's My Girl" on his album ''Music/AnEveningWastedWithTomLehrer''. "The Masochism Tango" is about an Abusively Sexy Lady, while "She's My Girl" is a gender-flipped parody of the more traditional kind of BastardBoyfriend love song.

* Creator/{{Rumiko Takahashi}}'s earliest rom-com series, ''Manga/UruseiYatsura'', can be best described as "pairing a Bastard Girlfriend with a BastardBoyfriend". Ataru might be a poor catch, given he's chronically unfaithful... but, on the other hand, Lum not only declared herself as Ataru's fiancee by force, refusing to annul the decision even after the matter was clarified, but is a PsychoElectro who zaps Ataru when she's ''giving him a happy embrace'' as well as to punish him for chasing girls, and a LethalChef who refuses to accept that her {{Alien Lunch}}es are dangerous to humans.

In many cases, this overlaps with DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale. Compare ''and'' contrast CasualKink as well as SafeSaneAndConsensual, for characters who live out BDSM fantasies ''and'' show the kind of ethical restraint needed in RealLife. Fictional characters who do not show such restraint are usually not intended to send a message that BondageIsBad.

This person is a rapist, {{torture|Technician}}r, and/or {{Domestic Abuse}}r who treates their significant other like a slave. Surely, such a character must be a horrible villain who suffers a humiliating defeat by the end of the story?

This person is a rapist, {{torture|Technician}}r, or {{Domestic Abuse}}r. Their abusiveness [[RomanticizedAbuse makes them sexy]], and relies on RuleOfSexy.

* Deconstructed twice in ''Manga/BokuraNoHentai''. Both are of the BespectacledBastardBoyfriend variety as well:

* Shizune from ''VisualNovel/KatawaShoujo'' is one step away from being a Bespectacled Bastard ''Girlfriend''.

* Ryoki in ''Manga/HotGimmick'' is a rare example of the BespectacledBastardBoyfriend subtype built off of the TroubledButCute model.

In any variation, if they gets called out on their actions, don't be surprised if they pull a WoundedGazelleGambit to get "rescued" from their ''victim''.

Also compare to {{Dominatrix}}, who keeps the "abuse" strictly consensual and in the bedroom. Contrast DomesticAbuse and UnsexySadist. Strongly related to AllWomenAreDomsAllMenAreSubs. May involve a HenpeckedHusband, particularly in the AwfulWeddedLife DomCom subgenre. If the unlucky guy somehow survives his break-up with his abuser, she'll become a PsychoExGirlfriend.

* Tamara (the character) from WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic's show. When she tortures him with a GroinAttack in her first episode, he offers her a job because views go up when he's in pain.

* This perfectly sums up Callie on ''WesternAnimation/UglyAmericans.'' Her relationship with the show's main character, Mark, basically involves breaking into his bedroom whenever she's in the mood to jump his bones and/or brutally torture him. In the first episode, she writes "See you in Hell" on his bedroom wall in his blood, and the wall is still stained whenever his room is seen in later episodes. Mark puts up with it because she's hot and it's sex. Of course, she's a succubus and literally from Hell, so it's possible she doesn't know how to be gentle. She's been working on not being like that.

* WesternAnimation/{{Chozen}} is this to his boy-toy Hunter, who wants an actual relationship, but Chozen is only in it for the sex. Hunter eventually wises up and ditches him.

* The male leads created by Creator/MayuShinjo have different degrees of this. The better-known example is Sakuya Ookochi from ''Manga/SensualPhrase'': this is largely because of an incident where his girlfriend Aine Yukimura ended up with a hickey (due to assault from another character); Sakuya, in a fit of jealousy, barged into her class, tore her uniform to reveal the hickey (and her bra strap), then took her home (while class was ongoing) and prepared to rape her. Only when her uniform was almost totally ripped off and the poor girl was weeping hysterically did he stop and realize WTF he was doing. Yeah, he's a Conflicted type with an ''extremely'' DarkAndTroubledPast (as in, [[spoiler: he's a HeroicBastard ChildByRape, his "father" left him when he learned baby Sakuya wasn't his kid, he was bullied all the time because of his heritage, and his LadyDrunk mom drank herself to death when he was a child]]) and ''[[CharacterizationMarchesOn does]]'' [[CharacterizationMarchesOn get kinda better with time]], [[spoiler:the WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue shows him as a decent father and husband, if somewhat of a LovableSexManiac when he and Aine are alone]], but that's '''not''' an excuse.

* Light Yagami from ''Manga/DeathNote'' definitely qualifies; the only reason he enters any sort of relationship with Misa is that she has her own Death Note and is wildly, cultishly in love with him. He really doesn't seem to give a crap about her other than that, and, in fact, is as willing to cruelly use her as a pawn as he is any stranger on the street. The only time he (pretends to) show any affection for her is when she's angry at him, or he wants her to do something. If Misa hadn't started with the infatuation, there's ''no way'' he would have treated her as anything more than a good lieutenant.
** His treatment of his ''other'' girlfriend/lieutenant, Kiyomi Takada. It's more or less canon that they ''have'' had sex at least once, he manipulates her almost as much as he uses Misa as well, and ''unlike'' in Misa's case, [[spoiler:he callously disposes of her by using a piece of the Death Note to force Takada to burn herself to death as a part of his plan. Right after the girl had not only killed Mello for him but was naked and frightened and trapped inside a truck, actually ''begging him to help her'' since she genuinely believes in him. It doesn't matter if you liked her or not, that '''was''' a [[MoralEventHorizon horrifyingly cruel move]] from Light.]]

* ''Series/TheVampireDiaries'': While Damon often has consensual sex, he's also shown mind-whammying girls (especially Caroline) into it, drinking their blood, and then making them forget it. Including a group of college girls, in a scene meant to highlight his own angst. In the second season, he starts "dating" Andie, heavily and repeatedly compelling her and feeding on her. One time she goes off-script when he's in a bad mood he attacks and threatens her, so even if you ignore all the supernatural aspects, he commits DomesticAbuse. [[DoubleStandardRapeSciFi No one appears to care about all this in the slightest.]] And when she dies, the show has the audacity to play it as a source of angst for him, despite her obviously being every bit as much his own victim as [[spoiler: Stefan's]]. This guy is one-third of the show's main love triangle.

* Literature/WhateleyUniverse: Envy's mother, the supervillainess Strega, who has a specialty in mind control and love charm magics. The hot blonde in the kitchen in "Envy and the Gilded Cage"? An FBI field agent captured by Strega, mind-controlled, raped and turned into TheMole. Did we mention that Strega offered to [[{{Squick}} let Envy 'share' her]]?
--> Strega: "You can have her if you want."
--> Envy: "EWWW!"
** It gets worse: after Envy [[GenderBender went from male to female]], Strega's idea of helping her daughter get used to her new body was to suggest a 'mother-daughter threesome' with a man they'd just met.

* In ''ComicBook/{{Pondus}}'', Jocke used to have a horrible love-life before he found Camilla. Sometimes, he found a sexy woman instead of the regular flood of {{Abhorrent Admirer}}s, but he usually ended up getting tortured by her rather than having a good time.
* ''ComicBook/SupermanSecretOrigin'': Subverted, because John Corben wants to ''think'' he's Lois's boyfriend, instead coming across as a StalkerWithACrush. He keeps sending her flowers which she immediately throws out, doesn't understand why she does after re-explaining they only went out ''once'', is contemptuous of her career, and thinks he knows what's best for her, and grabs her when starts ignoring him. Thankfully, Lois (and Clark) refuse to accept any of his behavior.
* While [[Characters/TeenTitansCheshire Cheshire]] wasn't this when she was originally with [[ComicBook/GreenArrow Roy Harper]] even though she was still evil, she'd become this to him when they were both in Deathstroke's mock [[ComicBook/TeenTitans Titans]] team. Following their daughter's death, Jade began exploiting Roy's emotional deterioration and emotionally blackmailed him into joining Slade's team so they could gang up on Deathstroke and kill him. When she wasn't sleeping with Roy, Jade would frequently call him an idiot and berate him. Thankfully, the faux relationship ended when Roy and a newly revived Jericho destroyed Deathstroke's main plans and the team disbanded, with Jade not wanting anything to do with Roy.

In any variation, such a character may be a MagnificentBastard. If they gets called out on their actions, don't be surprised if they pull a WoundedGazelleGambit to get "rescued" from their ''victim''.
