A dilemma that often comes up in fictions involving immortal beings, when an immortal person is in a committed relationship with a mortal character. This leads to inevitable sadness and conflict on the parts of both characters due to the knowledge that the mortal one will age and die, while the immortal one lives on and does not age. Sometimes, the immortal one will have had past lovers, adding to the age-old sadness of losing them. (Term inspired by Magnus Bane from the Shadowhunters series.)
