Toy cars, dolls, or just a simple house hold item one can easily become infatuated with anything. The pure essence or the aroma of a candle may construct an infatuation.

Infatuation is a feeling that can be felt toward many different objects including humans; it is a feeling that can happen over any period of time days, weeks, or months.
Infatuation comes from the years 1640 to 1650; the Late Latin word of infatuātiōn. The Latinate word was kept unbroken instead of just inserting a root word, where in Latin the term is deciphered to be the same as today’s modern times. Whether it be in the Late Latin times or our modern era the word can still be described as a form of love or obsession.
Not love but yet a pre-tense of that word. "Infatuation might lead you to do things you regret, but love never steers you in the wrong direction" (Terrie, April 2009.) The two words are love, and infatuation, which are two types of ways to show affection, to a special person. Infatuation is a childish feeling that often occurs before love, it is the heart felt passion within you that must first mature in order for love to grow from it.
