College students asked to provide detailed narrative accounts of a powerful experience of unrequited love (95%) Each person was asked to recall a case in which they where the would-be-lover and one in which they were the rejecter (+50%) Vast majority have experienced both roles he choses to only use the data from ppl who experienced both because that meant they are from the same group.
