Here are some things that might be considered duplicates.
Some of these potential duplicates are distinguished by whether the tag applies to both/all people in the relationship (e.g. one person pining vs. both/all people mutually pining). My instinct is that this distinction would be covered by other parts of the request, since requests will distinguish between "A/B (A pining)" vs. "A/B (both pining)" and requited vs. unrequited, but I'm not sure what other people think.
A believes B is dead Character pines for someone they think is dead
Character thinks they aren't good enough for the object of their pining A thinks B is out of their league
Long Distance Pining Character A Pines From Afar
Pining after breaking up Former lovers pine for each other
Everyone thinks they're already in a relationship Everyone Thinks They're Together - they are pining
Fake/Pretend Relationship Fake/Pretend Relationship - Mutual Pining Fake Dating while Pining
And maybe
Pining from Opposite Sides of a Conflict Pining for enemy in time of war Pining for the enemy/rival
I think there might be a distinction to be drawn between a rival, an opponent, and an enemy, but I'm not sure this is the best way to do it?
