Girls, like men, want to be petted, pitied, and made much of, when they are diffident, in low spirits, or in unrequited love.

Her whom I early cherishd in my breast;
Then once again with prudence dispossessd,
And to whose heart Im driven back once more.

Was unrequited, and, alas, full sad… – Johann von Goethe

And the male that loves unrequited sleeps,
The head of the money-maker that plotted all day sleeps,
And the enraged and treacherous dispositions, all, all sleep. – Walt Whitman
