This is a difficult question. I have had it happen many times, and it was only after getting beat over the head with the fact that they weren't what I made them out to be that I would lose my infatuation. Then it happens all over again. In fact it still happens to a degree. I see someone on the street that I find attractive, and I project what I think they would be like on to them. However, now I am old enough and wise enough to sublimate these feelings and use them on my relationship. It actually helps intensify the emotions I have for my wife as she is that person I am imagining. I guess you could say I use that sexual energy and channel it into my relationship.
