Lovelorn

Hello, Tom! Got anything planned for this evening? Do you fancy going to the cinema with me? The Lovelorn Train Driver is on at The Kant at nine.

He halted, waved to her, sighed with his hand on his heart, and looked altogether very lovelorn.

Ye lovesick bards! repay her scorn for scorn; / Ye artists lovelorn! madmen that ye are, / Make your best bow to her and bid adieu / Then, if she likes it, she will follow you.

A soft-breasted bird from the sea / Fell in love with the light-house flame; / And it wheeled round the tower on its airiest wing, / And floated and cried like a lovelorn thing;

And when there's a price involved, she can help others but - not herself. She gives advice to the lovelorn every day but she's never been in love herself. Or so I've heard.
