Puppy love

Puppy love (also known as a crush, calf love or kitten love) is an informal term for feelings of romantic or platoniclove, often felt during childhood and adolescence.[1] It is named for its resemblance to the adoring, worshipful affectionthat may be felt by a puppy. It may also be able to describe short/long-term love interest.
The term can be used in a derogatory fashion, describing emotions which are shallow and transient in comparison to other forms of love.[2] Sigmund Freud, however, was far from underestimating the power of early love, recognizing the validity of "the proverbial durability of first loves: on reviendra toujours à ses premières amours".[3][clarification needed]
