Is Obsession Good in a Relationship?
Being completely engrossed in someone isn't necessarily a red flag that your partner is abusive, but it isn't a good sign either. In his book "The Psychology of Passion: A Dualistic Model," psychologist Robert Vallerand says obsessive passion is more of a threat to a relationship than no passion at all.

Is Obsession the same as love?

Love is a feeling from the heart, and obsession can be termed as a crazy feeling. Though love and obsession are related in some aspects, the two can never be thought to be the same. Love is a feeling that is uncontrollable, and a feeling which one has for another person.

Is it okay to be obsessed with your boyfriend?

Basically, it's like you live in a romantic comedy. Some people might question how healthy it is, particularly because obsession can sometimes have a bad reputation — it's associated with some not-so-great things. But early on in relationships, infatuation-based obsession might not be so worrisome.
