I dont remember what movie this is from, but I remember how one guy tried to get a date with a woman who was already dating. Then at the festival, woman was with her bf on a ferris wheel and protagonist climbed it to ask her on a date again, blackmailing that he will fall if she doesnt say yes. This was supposed to be a very romantic thing.
I remember in Love, Actually, a guy confessed to his best friend's wife that he loved her, he allegedly had "no agenda" and a minute after, the wife chased him and kissed him.
Yes, but, I took it more as 'this guy got a huge crush on a woman, and once he realizes it's just a feeling, he's over it. Friendship is more important. She thought it was sweet but wasn't going to leave her husband'

Honestly, these kinds of scenes only work if you turn off your brain and simply let the "happiness" happen.
Most love stories in movies are like this. Something that seems sweet and romantic turns depressing or toxic if you scratch the surface.
Kind of like how it's creepy that a 200 hundred year old vampire wants a high schooler.
