What is the figurative meaning of this phrase? It's something to do with romance/attraction.

"Dañarle la cabeza a alguien".

¡Hola! Lo único que se me ocurre es: "Driving him/her crazy" (volverlo/a loco/a), otra opción sería "Playing mind games" (jugar con su mente/cabeza)

Sin tener mayor información/contexto es difícil saber con exactitud.

Thank you Susy , how is your headache? - ray76, Feb 14, 2014
Not good. I'm just hoping it is not the flu. It even hurts to type. :( - 00e46f15, Feb 14, 2014
Thanks! "Volverlo/la loco/loca a alguien" makes perfect sense! - SlimNm, Feb 17, 2014

To some people, it means " to brainwash someone." For example:

He was a little boy, and those people brainwashed him with communist ideas.

Era un jovenzuelo y esas personas le dañaron la cabeza con ideas comunistas.

Something like "to do someone's head in"

But maybe a helpful native speaker will come along with something better.

Así no tiene mucho sentido, mejor si pones el contexto.
