About This Quote
When your love of something is so great that you can almost become it, then you are experiencing what is known as "emotional infatuation." The term infatuation is derived from the Latin infatigare, which means "to be beside oneself." It comes from the Greek word meaning "beside" or "beside oneself." Infatuation involves being completely taken over by a strong emotion, which is similar to being beside oneself. When you are emotionally infatuated with something, it means that you have fallen under the spell of someone or some concept. Emotional infatuation has many symptoms. You may feel like you are experiencing love even though your feelings are not returned.
You may dream about the person or think of them often. You may show off about what you love. If you are lucky, this person will start to notice you and make an effort to get closer to you.
Emotional infatuation is not necessarily bad news. It is only unfortunate when it goes too far and affects your thinking.
