Courtly love was usually acted upon by knights and sometimes men of lower classes. They would court ladies of higher ranks in social superiority, usually princesses and duchesses and most times, the woman was married. This is the reason why one of the main rules of courtly love is secrecy; the woman of higher ranking and class was not socially allowed to "love" a man lesser than her.
