I want to say that I, personally, blame Back to the Future for Jaune x Ruby. How? It's that scene in episode 2 when Jaune helps Ruby to her feet. It is so like the moment when George helps Lorraine get up after knocking out Biff that I literally could hear the music from that moment in the movie playing.

That simply has so coloured my perception of the relationship between Ruby and Jaune ever since. That said, Jaune is more likely to be the damsel in distress (and, indeed, was on a psychological/emotional level in Forever Fall).
