James Dean Effect :
Stupid person: "Wow, he/she is so mysterious & misunderstood. I want him/her to love/like me. I'm sure I can change them, maybe if I change myself they'll like me."
Logical person in response to emotional persons statement : "It's just the James Dean Effect, you want them more because you probably can't have them in your life. Ever."
