This is a question that I was asked, and Not sure how to answer as I don't know the difference.

I was asked how you could tell if you were under a love spell or if you were just obsessed. I was asked by someone who said, at their work there is a man that they though was attractive and wouldn't mind dateing, however they didn't feel a crush toward them. However, she has worked with this person about a year now and hasn't started seeing this person as attractive till maybe 5 months ago. Now in a matter of a week, she says she cant stop thinking about this person and that they are always on her mind even when they aren't around. She told me how she's had crushes on people before, but nothing to this degree, not even through highschool when she was obsessing over a boy she liked than. I asked her if she thought this man had casted a love spell on her and she said she wasn't sure. That wwhile she didn't know the man that well, he didn't act, nor look or hang out with people who she thought would be into the occult of any kind. Infact she said he was pretty sure he laughed at that sort of thing.

While she felt that this was an odd reaction, she told me that she couldn't tell if she was just obsessing and it was just a stronger crush than she's had in the past or if it is a love spell on her.

So; how can you tell the difference? Any ideas?
