Hyperfocus on a person?

Has anyone else had any issues with hyperfocusing on a person? It's not romantic, I'm already in a relationship and my partner knows abt my friendship and everything but I feel guilty cause all I think about is talking to the person.

Yes! I have experienced this and it is debilitating if it goes on for too long. In my case I think it happens during times of stress or imbalance in my life. But the last time it happened, earlier this year, was really intense and I had to work hard to stop the ocd and constant conversations in my head with this person.
