\ˈhir-(ˌ)ō ˈsin-ˌdrōm\ (noun)
1. An infrequent, but nonetheless lethal, psychological occurrence in a male character from any of a variety of TV media, particularly those found in Japanese anime, in which the character in question experiences a drastic and negative change in personality due to the on-comings of a female character, or in order to gain a female character's interest or attention. This sudden change in behavior can lead to a falling-out with any number of friends, peers, or companions; resignation from or disinterest in a formerly favored career track; moodiness or downright cruelty; and, in general, the taking of sudden and drastic actions that may work as a plot device but are otherwise completely out of line. While these alterations in a character's attitude are usually temporary, they can, on instance, ruin a character forever. If the character in question is a "fan favorite," then his sudden change for the worse is all the more upsetting to any dedicated fan. The term originates with the character Nakano "Hiro" Hiroshi of the anime Gravitation, and how in his romantic pursuit of the character Usami Ayaka, he turns into what many fans consider a complete and utter douche, and takes his unrequited feelings out on his bandmates and friends.
2. When a male anime character previously assumed as homosexual abandons all prospects of a relationship with a male because of the influence of a nearby female, enormously disappointing the avid BL fan.

White Belt Syndrome is when someone acts and tries to convince people they have a Black Belt rank and or were a Spec Ops soldier of some sort, who are full of shit and aren't even athletes nor ever really train.
A person with WBS will typically claim to have a Black Belt under someone in another far away state that's unverifiable or they say their unit and what they did in the military is classified and can't tell you anything else. Other common symptoms of WBS are posers who like to buy MMA gear they'll hardly ever use, just to show it off to their friends and make up stories of how they went undefeated in some made up Boxing or MMA organization that no longer exists. (Which never did exist.) Another common symptom is they like to dress in camo and like to prance around in public places so everyone can see how much of a wannabe soldier they are. People who suffer from WBS like to have the glory of dedicated fighters and warriors, but not put any effort or dedication into truly becoming one.

I don't understand why you invite Rob over. All he ever does is talk about how great he is and goes on and on about how lethal his hands were in MMA and how he was a mercenary sniper with 500 kills. I don't think I ever seen such an out of shape poser with that bad of White Belt Syndrome in my life!
