To fall in love with a girl by just looking at her, and feeling and overwhelming sensation when near her, to the point of not thinking or talk coherently.Your definition of courtly love is incomplete. A crucial part you seem to have neglected to mention is the lady is supposed to publicly reject him, and that his love (at least publicly) was then to take another, somewhat closer to Platonic form. I emphasize publicly because, well, look at the tale of Launcelot and Guinevere.
Do you think such concept has now disappeared from the social collective or ridiculed by words such as Oneitis
Courtly love is beautiful on paper, but painful in real life.
