Answer to Question 1

Answer: Erotomania: a disorder involving the fixed (but incorrect) belief that one is loved by another, which persists in the face of strong evidence to the contrary.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Both experiences lose their ability to trigger the momentary high over time; however, once either habit is established, there are withdrawal symptoms if the supply is cut off. These symptoms can be painful enough to motivate the person to do almost anything to obtain a fix. Furthermore, the grief of separation feels much like drug withdrawal and is influenced by the same opiate-like chemicals in the body.
