Individual societal value erosion effect

or ISVEE; The process where, after somebody dies, society and the government value the person who died less as time passes by. The more time that has passed since the person died, the less society and the government value them as an individual. How rapidly this process occurs depends on how important society viewed the person as being, how they died, and how many close friends and family the individual had.

Person 1: Isaiah was nice guy. Its a shame more people don't remember who he was and how much he helped this community. Its only been five years since he died.
Person 2: Yeah. Unfortunately, a lot of people have forgotten about him and value him that much anymore. He is a victim of the Individual societal value erosion effect, which is very unfortunate.
Person 1: I agree with you there.

A situation where an individual has big crush on someone, but they realize that they can never actually date them for numerous reasons. Some people get over it, but others never actually recover from it because of how much they cared about that person. Some reasons are the person being out of their league, the other individual already being in a romantic relationship, the individual is aromantic, that individual is not romantically attracted to them, etc.

Chester: Hey, Lexy. How are you doing? We have not heard from you in months.

Lexy: I am doing okay; although I am kind of sad about Devin.

Mariah: What happened?
Lexy: I had a crush on him, but I realize could never actually date him because he would probably reject me due him being way out of my league and I heard a rumor that he is seeing someone else. It’s a love story that never happened.

Chester: I can see why that upsetting, but maybe if you wait things might change. They might breakup down the line and if you took chance and asked him out maybe then you might be able to date him.

Lexy: Thanks for the advice. I might try that.
