😍 chī mí sounds like CHEEse MEal — you're obsessed with it
痴 (chī) means foolish or crazy about something, 迷 (mí) means lost or bewildered. Together they describe being so infatuated you've lost your senses — crazy-lost in someone or something.
迷 — 辶 (walk) + 米 (rice/mǐ, phonetic)
A semantic-phonetic compound. The 辶 component (walking/road) gives the meaning of going astray on a path, while 米 (mǐ) supplies the sound. Originally referring to losing one's way while traveling, it later extended to mean confused, lost, or fascinated/captivated by something.
