Ever been obsessed over by someone (male or female, no matter age, religion/culture and etc)? I have been and this middle aged mentally challenged man from my group therapy has thought of himself to be "very handsome and blond-haired" when he's obese, wrinkled, has white hair and wear glasses and is very ugly. Obsession with someone isn't love, but lust and something very scary and unhealthy. He/she could decide to kill himself.herself in her deluded fantasies about you. Or could do very dangerous thing to the person they are claiming to love : stalking, sexual harassment, being clingy to that person's attention, and etc). Been there, so I understand how being obsessed by someone feels. A mate of mine from my psych ward has decided to commit suicide over her obsessive unrequited love for her therapist/psychiatrist at 31 years old. So yeah, obsession with someone is very unhealthy. Be aware of your self-respect, self-dignity and self-worth before becoming obsessed with a deluded fantasy of someone.
