Infatuation consists of people thinking they are in love but when indeed it is just a deep lust or like for another person.

All-encompassing, gut-wrenching, soul-draining activity that only requires the active involvement of one individual: the obsessor. A second individual is required for the peripheral need of providing the obsessor with an object of needless, unappreciated, possibly unwanted, often unwarranted affection. The second invididual may or may not be aware of his/her peripheral involvement, and may or may not be willing to be peripherally involved: the object's awareness and/or willingness of being an object of desire is of no consequence to the obsessor.

When infatuated, we are thrilled, but not happy, wanting to trust, yet suspicious. There are lingering, nagging doubts about our “partner in infatuation” and their love for us.
We’re miserable when they’re away, almost like we’re not complete unless we’re with them. It’s a rush and it’s intense. It’s difficult to concentrate. And most infatuation relationships have a high degree of sexual charge around them.

A.) When someone believes themselves to be in love, but deep down, knows that it isn't true love.

B.) When someone feels unexplainably strong about a person, but doesn't know/doesn't care to know if it's love or not.

C.) A beyond intense feeling that is on the way to love. You have to be infatuated before it can be real love.

Where the rose-colored lenses of the mind play their trick, filtering its perceptions to see that which it chooses to see.

The beginning of true passionate love. You get excited when you see and think of that person. It is a highly excited feeling, felt from the range of young teens to even adults. Getting married to the person who get infatuated over would be a gift from God.

A spell with neither verbal or somatic components that is consciously or unconsciously cast by various charismatic, funny, and sexually appealing people, and instantly reduces the victim's I.Q. by 20 to 80 points. Half if they make their saving throw. The penalty applied is 18 minus the victim's wisdom.
