Nope/Well, Wait/Maybe/OK Yea/Obsessed

Has this ever happened to any of you? And if so, which model was it?
This was my evolution toward the obsession of a particular model the 116619LB aka The Smurf. This is the long version, ok here we go:
I first saw it and said....
-Nope, no way... way too much blue for me, I’m not even a blue kinda guy but hey whatever floats your boat, to each their own as they say.
-Well, it is kinda cool that it’s full gold but not in your face gold, but that’s it... maybe if they had a different color dial I’d get one.
- It’s actually kinda unique now that I think about it. Similar uniqueness of a Hulk in terms of a colored theme, but just a little more special bc of the PM
-(Realizing after hours of searching pics, vids, and threads of the Smurf) Ok, I totally get it now, and the blue is really growing on me now. Flat blue that matches the bezel... it’s pretty amazing.... And the first of the ceramic subs, I wonder how much they are going for? Not that I’d get one but.... just curious.
-(Double checking finances, hmmm I could probably pull it off if I really wanted to... I mean... maybe if I sold a couple others too it wouldn’t be that bad of a hit... ah what am I thinking, now isn’t the time to buy a watch... or is it?
-Wow, I’m a full on fan of the Rolex Smurf! I just love it, I mean just look at it!
(Googled smurf wrist shots) see? Look how sick that is! It would be the perfect addition to the collection! ... ok white shoes, calm down! ...(my flossy carter reference for all of you who know, know lol)
-(Now checking TRF classifieds, Chrono24, on the daily just “checking the market”
Ok it’s official folks, I have to admit, I’m obsessed!
I’m fully aware this is a problem btw and there’s a few steps I left out like trying one on etc, but I didn’t wanna write you all a novel lol if you made it this far thank you.

I’d love to hear anyone else’s experience that may be similar and if not, well now you know how a true watch addict thinks lol HAGWE!
