To Be Crazy About Something or Someone



To Be Crazy About

Read the following e-mail and try to guess the meaning of the idiom in bold:

Dear Susan,

How have you been? I hope all is well.
Ever since we broke up I have been feeling really sad.
I know we had our bad moments and that I cheated on you, but please forgive me!
I am crazy about you. I can’t live without you…
Please call me.

Jim

Dear Jim The Cheater,

If you were crazy about me, you would not have cheated on me.
Don’t ever contact me again.

Susan
