fifth thing syndrome 

In short, it is the Craving or desire for the Unknown. Most widely believed to be innuendo for affection on a physical level, it can be also used to describe anything of a mysterious, unknown nature, that is craved...

A Breif History on the Origins:

A Message was sent Via SMS, stating that there was 5 points needed to get accross to the reciepient:
* The Recipient was loved
* The Recipient was missed
* The Recipient was wanted
* The Recipient was needed
* The *fifth point* would be expressed and/or demonstrated in person.

From that point in time on, the words 'Fifth Thing Syndrome' refered to the craving to have that fifth thing demonstrated. Thus, the 'Fifth Thing Syndrome' was born.
