How do you define these words?

My friend is doing this weird-survey-ish thing and I told her I would help gather some information.

Don't think too hard, you can give short explanations or go into detail--I'm not sure it matters? But the shorter, the better.

Define these words, in your opinion:

-Infatuation
-Adoration
-Fixation
-Devotion
-Admiration
-Obsession
-Enamored
-Romance
-Love

Thanks for humoring me!

Hmm...

My definition of these words is life.

Mainly because they are in everyone's life and sometimes they even wreck and ruin lives. So yeah, I'm simple and that is my definition.

-Infatuation: sounds like "inundation", like when someone permeates your life, but it definitely won't be lasting; an intense but passing thing

-Adoration: when you love someone for little to no reason; it's strong enough to be used conversationally "I just adore this book" but not always such a good thing when applied to a person

-Fixation: like a combination of infatuation and adoration; it seems a bit like tunnel vision

-Devotion: adoration and fixation gone overboard; usually, though not always; in not so great a way

-Admiration: the good connotation of adoration; adoration with a clear head

-Obsession: the longer lasting version of infatuation

-Enamored: reminds me of the Spanish "enamorarse" which is to have a crush on someone. Though in English it seems more like it would mean more than a crush? Somewhere between a crush and true love.

-Romance: seems more like a state of being than the rest, somewhere between being enamored and love.

-Love: eh, I don't know? seems like I have a scale kind of thing goin' on here, so I suppose Love would surpass everything else and not have any bad connotations about it, seems to have some kind of "pure" type connotation. EDIT: maybe all of everything rolled into one, so that everything is necessary, just the good will outweigh the bad... Funny how I can only define it in terms of other things, but not in terms of itself.
