love-struck
Completely head-over-heels
Love-struck describes someone overwhelmed by romantic feelings, unable to think clearly because of infatuation.
The condition implies a sudden, powerful onset—as if struck by love: He wandered around love-struck after their first date.
The word suggests an almost helpless state where the beloved dominates one's thoughts.
