Monachopsis 

n. the subtle but persistent feeling of being out of place, as maladapted to your surroundings as a seal on a beach.
Monachopsis —lumbering, clumsy, easily distracted, huddled in the company of other misfits, unable to recognize the ambient roar of your intended habitat, in which you’d be fluidly, brilliantly, effortlessly at home.

A powerful and most passionate sex act on a woman who resembles a child star you once had an incredible crush on when in your teens. There has to be at least a 30 year time span that goes by before you can complete your fantasy.
Oh my god she looks just like Kristy McNichol, she doesn't know it but I am going to give it to her like I could in my 20's, she in fact, is going to get the McNichol tonight.

Oh I had the greatest sex last night, he turned to me and said what did you think of the McNichol treatment I just gave you and I said "what", he said "nevermind"

/mon-uh-kop-sis/ n.
The subtle but persistent feeling of being out of place - that you are drastically juxtaposed amidst your surroundings - ultimately feeling like one side of your puzzle piece will never fit - as you aimlessly search for the place that you would feel effortlessly at home.

The subtle but persistent feeling of being out of place, even in your own skin
A quiet unease settled over her at the party, a familiar monachopsis that made her feel like a ghost in her own life.
