AllLoveIsUnrequited right? In this case, that's not a good thing. This is when a character who has a crush on another character does not take rejection well. In fact to them being rejected is a big BerserkButton. Turns out LoveMakesYouCrazy and LoveMakesYouEvil (or sometimes not to ''that'' extent) especially if that love goes unrequited. Unrequited love is dangerous because sometimes it can turn the rejected character into a {{Yandere}} or even sometimes lead to AttemptedRape in an attempt to get their feelings across. May also turn into a StalkerWithACrush or become MadLove. May occur in a VillainousCrush scenario. Mild cases of this are often a prerequisite to LadykillerInLove scenario, when TheCasanova falls in love ''because'' [[ILoveYouBecauseICantControlYou the woman rejected all his advances]], leaving him baffled and disoriented by the new experience. Stalker's are usually unsympathetic whereas this can be sympathetic; the one who cannot handle rejection may just commit {{Sepukku}} or join the LegionOfLostSouls whereas a StalkerWithACrush will continue pursuing in ways harmful to the supposed beloved. See also {{Yandere}}, SpurnedIntoSuicide, IfICantHaveYou, and MurderTheHypotenuse. The rejected person may or may not get better and get over the rejection though. Sometimes may even just become a {{Tsundere}} and resort to physical abuse.
There's a fundamental difference in character & story, depending on whether the rejected party:
* Becomes AxCrazy / StalkerWithACrush / {{Yandere}} or
* Crosses the DespairEventHorizon / becomes emo.
!!Examples:
[[AC: {{Anime}} and {{Manga}}]]
* Rune from ''KarakuridoujiUltimo'' falls into this in regards to his current unrequited [[HoYay love for Yamato]].
* Belarus from ''AxisPowersHetalia'' has an unreturned {{Yandere}} crush on [[BrotherSisterIncest brother]] Russia. She doesn't listen to her brother at all when he [[TearsOfFear tearfully]] screams at her to "Go home!"
* ''OnePiece'': Vander Drecken responds very badly to Princess Shirahoshi rejecting his marriage proposals, leading to a very bad case of IfICantHaveYou. Subverted when it's revealed [[spoiler: he only wanted her for her ability to control Sea Kings.]]
* ''{{Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun}}'': Inner Reika (who's {{Yandere}} for Shungo) tries to rape Shungo to help get her feelings across, is willing to pull a MurderTheHypotenuse on Mayu her rival for Shungo's love, and completely looses it in the last episode upon seeing him try to kiss Mayu, screaming at her subordinate Hosaka to kill Shungo.
* In the ''{{Shuffle}}'' anime Kaede goes {{Yandere}} when Rin rejects her in favor of Asa. She gets better.
* In ''PrincessPrincess'' when Tooru tells Sayaka that he only sees her as a sister she has a FreakOut moment and [[SpurnedIntoSuicide tries to kill herself by jumping off of a cliff]].
* ''SailorMoon'' has a few characters that fall under this, namely Ali and En (for Usagi and Mamoru respectively), Prince Diamond (for Usagi), and Emerald (for Prince Diamond). And Fiore [[HoYay for Mamoru]].
* ''TokyoMewMew'' features Kisshu who tries to kill Ichigo when she refuses to become "his".
* In ''OutlawStar'' Harry beats up Melfina and tries to kidnap her when she refuses him. He also tries to kill Gene the guy he thinks she's interested in and tries to MindRape her twice.
* ''SakuraGari'': Katsuragi towards Souma. Also, Sakurako towards Souma. Generally, [[EvenTheGuysWantHim a lot of people]] towards Souma.
* In ''RanmaOneHalf'' Ranma's suitors do ''not'' take rejection well. This example is mostly PlayedForLaughs.
** Also, when female Ranma discovers that Ryoga (that had accidentally hit Ranma with a love rod) doesn't love him back, he transforms himself into a guy and starts to beat the crap out of Ryoga. Normally Ryoga is as equally skilled in Martial Arts as Ranma, but this time Ranma was in such a rage that Ryoga was forced to surrender...
* In ''AiNoKusabi'' there's Iason and Guy towards Riki.
* [[AxCrazy Yuno]] from ''MiraiNikki'' towards Yukiteru.
* In ''BlackCat'' the protagonist's enemy, Creed Diskenth has an obsessive fixation on him, and when Train leaves the Chronos Numbers, he kills his closest friend and doesn't hesitate later on to kidnap his friends and hold them hostage.
* In ''ElfenLied'', when Lucy learns Kouta lied to her about the gender of the cousin he was taking to the festival, she murders his father and sister in a fit of jealousy and tries to murder his cousin.
* In ''{{Monster}}'' Eva Heinemann tries to win over Tenma several times after they break up, each time becoming angrier and angrier until she threatens to turn in his tie and use it against him.
* ''PerfectBlue'': Me-Mania (real name Uchida) has a ''thing'' for Mima that she doesn't even notice. When she publicly announces that she's quitting her singing job and moving to something else, Me-Mania takes this as rejection. Being the crazed fan that he is, he sends her a fax message simply saying "TRAITOR" over and over again. Then he stalks her, murders people connected to her, and attempts to rape and kill her.
* ''OkaneGaNai'' has Kanou towards Ayase. There's also Ayase's StalkerWithACrush who pulls a knife on him in a scene similar to AttemptedRape scene.
* In a ''DeathNote'' flashback, when Misa tries to ignore a StalkerWithACrush who surprises her at night, he pulls a knife, saying, "Then I'll kill you and myself!"
* ''MirageOfBlaze'': Naoe towards Kagetora.
* Both of the main female characters on ''SchoolDays'' fit this trope to a T.
* Mizore from ''RosarioToVampire'' towards Tsukune though she does get better about this and becomes nicer after being added to Tsukune's harem.
* In ''TheEndOfEvangelion'' the violence between Shinji and Asuka reaches a crescendo as Shinji eventually strangles her. This happens shortly after Asuka kicks him, gives him a nasty TheReasonYouSuckSpeech which includes her rejecting him after he confesses his feelings to her, and shoves him to the ground causing a pot of painfully hot coffee to spill on him.
* Backstory of ''UminekoNoNakuKoroNi'' in a nutshell, [[UnreliableNarrator at least as Beatrice tells it]] - [[BoyMeetsGirl man summons witch]], man falls in love with witch, witch doesn't love him, [[spoiler:man traps witch on island, witch dies-ish]], man can no longer see witch, man decides to [[PaterFamilicide kill entire family]] [[{{Necromantic}} in order to revive witch]] and spends most of his time [[SkywardScream screaming at the sky]].

* ''StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'': There was one episode called "Charlie X" where a boy with god-like powers ends up in the hands of Captain Kirk and Spock. The boy takes an interest in one of the crew members, and she is old enough to be his mother. He rejects a female crew member his age rather bluntly and rudely. He slaps the crew member he is interested in in her rear. She is appropriately turned off by his advances. Kirk tries to explain to the boy that what he is doing is inappropriate, but it doesn't work. It culiminates in him making moves, she in turn bluntly rejecting him, and he angrily uses his powers to teleport her ''somewhere'' and he refuses to say where he put her. Fortunately, she gets teleported back safely by the end and the boy is taken by entities that will be able to handle him ''properly''!

Unfortunately, he ends up coming back with a gun and shoots at least one person he comes across. He tries to propose marriage to his former boss, ring and all. She ends up rejecting him, which results in him getting violent and Ed having to shoot him dead. The interesting part was that the team had warned her that he is mentally ill and dangerous and yet she went and put herself in danger (at least to save an employee) anyway.
* Spike of ''BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' took his repeated rejections from Buffy quite badly, and it leads to AttemptedRape.

There's a fundamental difference in character & story, depending on whether the rejected party:
* Becomes AxCrazy / StalkerWithACrush / {{Yandere}} or
* Crosses the DespairEventHorizon / becomes emo.
!!Examples:
[[AC: {{Anime}} and {{Manga}}]]
* Rune from ''KarakuridoujiUltimo'' falls into this in regards to his current unrequited [[HoYay love for Yamato]].

* ''{{Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun}}'': Inner Reika (who's {{Yandere}} for Shungo) tries to rape Shungo to help get her feelings across, is willing to pull a MurderTheHypotenuse on Mayu her rival for Shungo's love, and completely looses it in the last episode upon seeing him try to kiss Mayu, screaming at her subordinate Hosaka to kill Shungo.

* In ''PrincessPrincess'' when Tooru tells Sayaka that he only sees her as a sister she has a FreakOut moment and [[SpurnedIntoSuicide tries to kill herself by jumping off of a cliff]].

* ''TokyoMewMew'' features Kisshu who tries to kill Ichigo when she refuses to become "his".
* In ''OutlawStar'' Harry beats up Melfina and tries to kidnap her when she refuses him. He also tries to kill Gene the guy he thinks she's interested in and tries to MindRape her twice.
* ''SakuraGari'': Katsuragi towards Souma. Also, Sakurako towards Souma. Generally, [[EvenTheGuysWantHim a lot of people]] towards Souma.
* In ''RanmaOneHalf'' Ranma's suitors do ''not'' take rejection well. This example is mostly PlayedForLaughs.
** Also, when female Ranma discovers that Ryoga (that had accidentally hit Ranma with a love rod) doesn't love him back, he transforms himself into a guy and starts to beat the crap out of Ryoga. Normally Ryoga is as equally skilled in Martial Arts as Ranma, but this time Ranma was in such a rage that Ryoga was forced to surrender...
* In ''AiNoKusabi'' there's Iason and Guy towards Riki.
* [[AxCrazy Yuno]] from ''MiraiNikki'' towards Yukiteru.

* In ''{{Monster}}'' Eva Heinemann tries to win over Tenma several times after they break up, each time becoming angrier and angrier until she threatens to turn in his tie and use it against him.
* ''PerfectBlue'': Me-Mania (real name Uchida) has a ''thing'' for Mima that she doesn't even notice. When she publicly announces that she's quitting her singing job and moving to something else, Me-Mania takes this as rejection. Being the crazed fan that he is, he sends her a fax message simply saying "TRAITOR" over and over again. Then he stalks her, murders people connected to her, and attempts to rape and kill her.
* ''OkaneGaNai'' has Kanou towards Ayase. There's also Ayase's StalkerWithACrush who pulls a knife on him in a scene similar to AttemptedRape scene.
* In a ''DeathNote'' flashback, when Misa tries to ignore a StalkerWithACrush who surprises her at night, he pulls a knife, saying, "Then I'll kill you and myself!"
* ''MirageOfBlaze'': Naoe towards Kagetora.
* Both of the main female characters on ''SchoolDays'' fit this trope to a T.
