Has Bruce Wayne ever dated a woman who did NOT find out he was Batman?

A common joke I've seen online is that Bruce Wayne can't seem to date a woman without her either A) dying or B) eventually finding out he's Batman. I know of several cases where he entered a semi-serious relationship with a woman, but oddly enough both criteria apply to those (usually the latter one). So this leads me to believe that the joke is based in reality after all.



Has Bruce Wayne/Batman ever been in a serious relationship with a woman who did NOT die or learn of his dual identity?



All media acceptable - comics, movies, cartoons, whatever. I assume there won't be too many answers, since I'm looking for actual dating relationships and not just the "arm candy" he occasionally employs for appearances.

  • Do Elseworlds/imaginary stories count? I doubt Julie Madison ever discovered his identity in continuity, but there might well have been one or more imaginary stories where she and Bruce got married, and she knew his identity.

  • How do you feel about the following sequence of events? 1) Bruce Wayne and a certain young woman go on more than one date during a certain writer's run on a Batman comic book. 2) She doesn't learn his secret. 3) Then there's a change in writers, and the young woman is not mentioned in the comics for a few years. 4) Then she is brought back onstage just in time to be murdered as a tragic touch to launch a new story arc. So she didn't learn the secret, nor die, while they were dating, but she was treated as cannon fodder much later. (I think this pattern has happened at least twice!)
