‘Spirit tek’ is a Jamaican colloquial term which translates to infatuation. Infatuation is completely devoid of emotions. You’ll see someone who’s handsome and you are immediately attracted. Infatuation gives an intense desire for someone, but it fades over time as it is dependent on tremors that come and go.

The major difference between being ‘in love’ and ‘spirit tek’ is this – love never fades, as it is based on a solid decision, while ‘spirit tek’ is temporary, as it is based upon how one feels.
