I've been wondering this for the longest time and it's been bugging me recently. It was in my freshman year health book and for some reason I remember seeing it, but I don't remember the actual term used. I believe it was somewhere along the lines of "a deep affection for another person (like a teacher, acquaintance, role model) that is so overwhelming, the mere sight of the person will cause you stop what you're doing." Pretty bad definition on my part, I know. But I'm seriously stuck on this and I'd like answers.
Thanks in advance for your time.

Limerance is the first stage of love when people are infatuated with a person to the exclusion of all else. Is that the term you are looking for?
