My 8 yr. old stalker

My daughter is in love with a fellow second grader. I'll keep his name private but if you look at anything in her room that can be written on or in you'll see his name. Anyway, so she talks about him all the time. Last year her teacher pointed out that all of her creative writing centered around him in some way. Over the summer she counted down the days until she could see him again. He's not, thankfully, in her class this year. However, I went on a field trip with the second grade to Antelope (stinkin') Island and finally saw this boy. He's cute. I noticed that she would just watch him, stare at him really. She also maneuvers herself to be in his line, to sit behind him, etc.
So, I had a talk with her about it being okay to have a crush and all but could she please stop obsessing over him? Would she please stop stalking him?

This was the conversation at dinner between Harrison & Zoey:
"I wore [this boy]'s jacket today."
