Limerence - Unrequited Love

Limerence or infatuated love is a state of mind resulting from unrequited love. It makes an individual become attracted to another person (most of the opposite gender) and typically includes obsessive behaviour and thoughts, desire and fantasies to start or maintain a relationship with the object of unrequited love, and have those feelings reciprocated.
