I didn't know it had a name....oh.
No pills!!! Don't numb the human condition - our ability to feel is what makes living worth while.
And besides, without feeling, how can one be creative?
I've felt something like this towards certain ideas, paradigms, and ways of seeing things. At one point, I think I actually felt something like this towards MBTI and Jungian theory. Other times I can feel it towards a particular style of story, a particular theme, quality, or archetype.
As far as people, though? I don't think so, although the feeling might just not have lasted long enough before I ended up focused on something more abstract and expansive than the person themselves.
i always have a very mild crush on several people. its more like enjoining the beauty. not primarily referring to looks! but as mild as it is, it still affects me, as an attachment.

I've caught it
Now, how do I go about curing it??
Isn't this essentially just another term for infatuation?
I think we've all been there at some point or another.
Another possibility would be to be very direct with the person and let them know you are interested and request that they let you know if they are interested. Let them know it's okay if they are not into you.
My guess is INFP, since they are the hopeless romantics and wear their hearts on their sleeves
