Doctor Who: regarding a Drums one-liner

[butterfly]

So, the question has been asked -- how does the Doctor know what it feels like 'when you fancy someone and they don't even know you exist'? When did he experience that emotion?

Well, from The Doctor Dances we have this:
Rose: "Okay, so he's vanished into thin air. Why is it always the great looking ones who do that?"
Doctor: "I'm making an effort not to be insulted."
Rose: "I mean... men."
Doctor: "Okay, thanks, that really helps!"

He was probably feeling just like he was wearing a perception filter at that moment in time -- there he was, pining his heart out, and he didn't even register as a 'man' to her. Then he dances with her and pulls out all the stops... and she still goes off with Mickey in Boomtown.

He really did. He had those moments where he was the one going, "Oi! Aren't I cool? Pay attention to me!"
