This is a state of mind occurring from a romantic interest in another person. Not necessarily purely sexual, this condition usually triggers obsessive thoughts and feelings and leads to the desire to have a relationship with the object of the love/desire/fantasies and to have those feelings returned.

Regardless of your age, you will always belong to the generation you were born into.
The breakdown by age looks like this:
Baby Boomers: Baby boomers were born between 1946 and 1964. They're currently between 56-74 years old
Born 1946-1964. Post World War II, people were enjoying new-found prosperity, which resulted in a “baby boom.” The children born as a result were dubbed the Baby Boomers.Gen X: Gen X was born between 1965 and 1980 and are currently between 40-55 years old.
Other Nicknames: “Latchkey” generation, MTV generationGen Y: Gen Y, or Millennials, were born between 1980 and 1994. They are currently between 24-39 years old
Gen Y.1 = 25-29 years old
Gen Y.2 = 29-39
Other Nicknames: Gen Y, Gen Me, Gen We, Echo Boomers. Millennials have a home and are building a family. You can imagine how having a child might change your interests and priorities, so for marketing purposes, it's useful to split this generation into Gen Y.1 and Gen Y.2.
Gen Z: Gen Z is the newest generation to be named and were born between 1996 and 2015. They are currently between 5-24 years old
The name Generation Z is a placeholder for the youngest people on the planet. It is likely to morph as they leave childhood and mature into their adolescent and adult identities.
Other Nicknames: iGeneration, Post-millennials, Homeland GenerationOctober 1, 2020 at 1:36 pm #143293MOONSTRUCK
Adjective. Informal. : Behaving in a silly or slightly crazy way. Especially when you are in love.“Unable to think of anything else, the moonstruck Pussyhound spends her day longing to hear the sound of a cute little Slutpuppy tail thumping on the floor”.

This is actually a Scottish term, but it sounds really nifty!
The definition is a funny and gross one; this is what people living in Edinburgh shouted out their windows as a warning before dumping their slop buckets out of their windows. At least they gave a little bit of a warning to those below!November 11, 2020 at 8:05 pm #143298Snollygoster.
This is something many people already call many politicians, but it happens to be a nicer sounding term. This refers to a politician who does or says things for their own personal advancement instead of following their own principles. Try saying this in your next political discussion and see people’s reaction.
