Being Infatuated With Someone


Marcel: What is this on your wall? 


Fiona: It’s my tribute to Del Gordon, my favorite player. 


Marcel: This isn’t a tribute. It’s a shrine 1


Fiona: It’s not a shrine. I just have a few pictures of him taped on my wall. 


Marcel: You have poster- size pictures of him covering three walls of your room. This goes beyond being a fan. You’re obsessed 2 with him. 


Fiona: No, I’m not obsessed. I admit that I’m a little infatuated with him, but it’s a healthy kind of adulation. 


Marcel: You’ve definitely gotten carried away. 


Fiona: Just a little. I’m devoted 3 to watching him play in every game and I try to find out as much as I can about him, but it’s because I admire him. It’s not like I’m stalking him or something. 


Marcel: Then why do you have all of this equipment? 


Fiona: That’s in case there’s a sighting of him in this city. 


Marcel: A sighting? 


Fiona: Yes, there’s a network of fans that keeps tabs on him and if I learn that he’s in town, I can try to get a photo with him. 


Marcel: And what are those handcuffs for? 


Fiona: I only have those in case he doesn’t cooperate. 


Marcel: You’re right. Your infatuation is completely healthy!
