You can easily tell if you are obsessed with someone by looking for a few telltale signs. The first sign is that you're thinking about them throughout the course of the day. No matter what, they always pop into your head. Also, if you're heart beats faster and you get embarrassed around them, you may be obsessed.
When you start to neglect yourself, your responsibilities, and your daily duties as a result of an inability to focus on anything apart from another person, this is the clearest sign of obsession. As a general rule, if your friendships or sleeping patterns are suffering, it may be time to take a reality check.

...i've been wondering if i've become obsessed rather in love... this answer definetly gave me some insight. I think i have a problem. Next question is - what to do! add a comment
When you find out their phone number, address, all their family members' names and birthdays. You check their facebook 6 times a day. You love going to school just so you can stare at them everyday. If you don't see them, you're heartbroken. They are ALWAYS on your mind.
When the person is on your mind 24/7 and you have a constant nagging need to check where they are and what they are doing at that exact moment. You wander if they ever think about you.
when you are always checking on them, want to know everything about them, thinking about them constantly, wondering what they are doing and who they are with, printing pictures out of them, stalking them, watching their online account..ect.

Thinking about them all the time, checking constantly if they are online. Sometimes even end up hurting them just so to get their attention. and it sucks big time cos you'll regret it after..

no matter how hard i try i can't seem to get her off my mind. when i'm at school i can't get any work done. when i'm at home i can't do what i'm supposed to and it really bugs me. i guess i am obsessed. add a comment
If you text them and promise them you will NEVER bother them again, and the next day you text them AGAIN. you are obsessed. Doing "drive bys" of their home or work? Finding ways to break into their cell phone? u r obsessed!
I would say that you are obsessed with someone if you can not stop thinking about them, wonder where they are every minute of the day and you will do anything to find out that information. You would be obsessed if your thinking of them interrupts your daily life enough.
When you are obsessed you eat ,breath and sleep that person. You know everything about them and can even go as far as camping outside their house. They are on your mind twenty four hours of the day. You follow that person everywhere and can run them down through jealousy.

that can also be that you like the person though.. not that your obsessed o.O . if that is the case than the world is full of obsessed people :O with facebook and stuff like that. add a comment
If you think about them constantly and have trouble focusing on other responsibilities. If you see only good things about them and think they are perfect, and never want to spend any time apart, you are obsessed. Failure to see pros and cons in someone's personality is not normal and balanced, not even healthy.
Wow, I this sounds like me completely. Unable to stop thinking about him and always wanting to just have him around more than needed. Heartbeats faster when i see him online nd wondr y he isnt talkn. Sooo....I need help. I got to get out of this. Fast.
Driving past your house, always looking at you, trying to get closer to your friends and/or family, always calling/texting you, still bothering you when you don't want nothing else to do with them.
Have you STOPPED thinking about them? It IS an addiction--it begins to gets into everything you do. You're speechless in their presence. You're telling friends you're obsessed. All good signs. Don't let it consume you. Life centers not around this one person.
When you relate every single song to tht person. And you never stop thinking about them. When you see them with someone else u just wanna curl up and die. When tht person is in your dreams every single night.

My ex fiance and me where going to get back together but he constantly told me what was going through his head when we broke up. He told me he constantly thought bout me and couldnt live without me he had thoughts of suiside and buring houes down constantly callsme.
If you do things to keep them from family and friends. Wanting them to be in the house 24/7 and around you only. Watching them eat, sleep and everything.

Well I must be obsessed then.I totaly want to be with this person so badd!! He is so gorgeous and sweet and his smile is out of this world ,the way he dresses,oh and the way he smells OMG.Thing is he's indian and um black add a comment
Time heals all wounds. Obsessions eventually pass. Meanwhile, choose social situations that foster meeting someone who's WORTHY of your love. You deserve better than someone who doesn't want you. Easier said than done, but you need to actuallylove --yourself more than the obsessed one who clearly isn't worthy of you.
well i knew i was, online love went to extremes to be with him online. lied about age and even went so far as to paste and copy pictures. couldnt sleep thinking of him, and told him truth and cant stop writing him
I guess I'm guilty with being obsessed with this women at my job. I'm constantly thinking about her, and I can't do my job correctly. I had plenty of chances to have a better job, but I stayed because I didn't want to leave her... I need a change.....really
All of the said words here about obsession, I can see it to myself. The sad thing is, I am obsessed to a man who's already married. How can I ever stop thinking about him. I don't see him personally, but I just constantly thinking of him for years now.
something is wrong with me... i love her but i cant do my normal activities nothin matters to me but her and where she is and what she does, i always want to know. and i constanly think she is with someone. i pest her for her passwords.
Nearly all'a these answers describe me perfectly. (ie. Only-want-to-go to-school-to-stare-at-her, Facebook-stalk-her, Always-think-about-her, and-also-spend-time-before-I-go-to-sleep-thinking-about-her but it doesn't cut into sleep because I used to think about me.

It's been two years for me, too. I'm married and so is he. I can't stop thinking about him - it's not healthy. What do I do? add a comment
When someboby all way want to know where you at what you are every time you talk to them.Have other people watching so them they can keep up with your move.Constantly coming over your house.Follow you every where you go.Making sure that they run every away from you.
If Yu Are CONSTANTLY Writing This Person's Name And Matching Their Last Name With Yur First Name Is A Sign Of Obsession;With HEarts All Over It And Yu Think And Want TO Know Everything About THem 24/7 ;
Also,IF Yu Try To Get Closer To Them by Their Parents!!!!!
i feel this way over my best friend, but seeing as she's my friend i don't want her to think i'm a freak cos i'm constantly checking up on her etc. i dont even know if she's noticed!
Its been almost five years, its unhealthy,I'm better than that. I'ts not everlasting,unrequited love. Its sickness. So who knows a cheap therapist???.. :)
If you wonder where they are, what they are doing and who they are obviously cheating on you with throughout the day you're pretty much obsessed. If you call them pretending to be calm, ask them preplanned questions while listening intently for any telltale noises in the background ur obsessed.
If you think about them non-stop and lick their hair...i have had this problem before whaen i actually cut off someone's hair and ate it...sad times...):
i drive past her house, i stalk her on the internet and the boy she loves too. i stalk her parents and try to get close to her friends. i try to get her to feel sorry for me just to get her attention. i love this girl.
I don't think your obsessed when you think about that person all the time. Because I do that. If you feel like you can give them up& live without them you aren't obsessed. It's just an attatchment. Being obsessed is more of stalking & doing something to harm them becauseYouCantHaveThemToYourself.
I know that feeling of obsession! No matter how he treats me, I feel like I have to be around him, dream about him and would faint if I saw him coming my way! Please give me advice on how to get him off my mind!

I have a partner, he already told me that he don't love me anymore, im still hoping i begged on him not to leave me because it will torn me down into pieces. what should i do? i can't imagine myself away or far from this person.
Totally true... I look him up online, find pictures, memorize details, stare at him for the entire class, do things to get his attention... and I think only of him the whole day. Except... I do better in school cause i wanna be smart so he likes me. totally obsessed.
No denying it, I am obsessed, he's everything to me, I need him otherwise i would've gone insane a long time ago, damn i need help, but i can't get over him.
you know your obsessed when you think your world would be nothing without them...literally. You cry about them whenever you get into little arguments with them because you feel like your losing them n its a must to know everything bout them n wherabouts
He's constantly on my mind.I know his fb name even though its so complicated, his family, his bestfriend, the girls he's liked before.I dream of him.I know his age, where he went to high school, his classmates, his fave music, where he stays. I get speechless when we're in group.
Omg everything said matches how I feel about him I always wanna know were is he or who hes with and I can never stop thinking about him. I love him so much and I never wanna loose him its been 2 years helppppp
I totally know this feeling of being obsessed with someone! No matter how that person treats me I always want to be around him! I always think of him, dream of him and desire him! I guess I'm obsessed!! Any advice how to get him off my mind?
