for a while now i’ve been searching for a movie where a woman falls in love with, let’s say the idea, of this certain man she doesn’t even know, yet she builds a deep obsessive connection towards him. (believing he could save her from her own troubles) she is very unstable because she cannot accept the fact he rejected her due to his personal reasons. i’ve seen this scenario a lot but with male lead so i was wondering if something like this exists with the roles switched? (bonus points if it’s a new wave french movie)
Young Adult
2011 movie starring Charlise Theron. She is the protagonist and is obsessed with a boy she went to high school with decades earlier, who is now married.

How do I know he loves me? It's the little things
Little compliments here and there that
I secretly stockpile in my woman-brain
I can live for days off a single
(You really listen to me)
I'm like a s*** fashion-cactus
Livin' from compliment to compliment
Hint to hint
Storin' them in my body through long periods of drought
I may look dry, but if you cut me open you'll find only water inside
Incidentally that's also a useful
fact for how to survive in the desert
But how do I know he loves me?
I guess the only way to prove it is with abstract symbolism
He gives me love kernels
Each little crumb another tasty clue
Love kernels
'Cause if you read between the lines he's sayin' "I love you"
Love kernels
Save those kernels up to make a bowl of popcorn
Love kernels
A handful is the proper serving anyway
I know when you say, "I wanna go to Colorado sometime"
It means you're thinkin' 'bout the future with me
I know a 3am text means
I was in your dreams before you woke up to pee
(It's a 3am sup text)
And I know you care when you say
"I'm going to a movie tonight, my friend bailed, wanna come?"
It means I'm the most important person in his life
Next to his friend
(But he's known his friend since he was like five
So that's saying a lot)
I'd do anything for those love droplets
Like a hamster in a cage! Slurp slurp
Love droplets
Each a letter on a page in the novel of our love
Love droplets
Fallin' down from the sky
And when I mix it in with the tears I cry it makes a
Full glass of water
God I'm thirsty after all that popcorn
I'll be patient
Until the droplets become a river that needs a dam
I'll be patient
Until the kernels rain down like candy on Shaquille O'Neal
In the movie Kazaam
Whatever you got, baby, I'll take it, baby
(What you up to today?)
I'll take it
"Your house smells like lemon)
I'll take it
(Where is my phone?)
It's a stretch but I'll take that too
I'll take all your love kernels
This video ate up our production budget
Love kernels
We used up literally every cent
Love kernels
Darryl is now played by a broom on a stand
But like your love kernels
We'll do our best with what we have

***Fleabag*** is an amazing show written and acted by Phoebe Waller-Bridge. It's not a scary obsession, she just really loves a man that she cannot have. It's charming and very sad at the same time. Fair warning, you'll get hooked on the show, and there aren't very many episodes.

Probably my favorite comedic version is maybe Charade (1963). Audrey Hepburn plays opposite of Cary Grant, and because Grant was so much older than Hepburn he asked that they rewrite his character so he wasn’t going after a much younger woman. The result is Hepburn plays Reggie, the main character, as crushing really hard on Cary Grant’s character from the beginning. It honestly makes the movie. I don’t think it’s necessarily obsessive, and it’s not totally one sided, but I figured I would bring it up.

An important distinction. Movies with *a primary/main character* who fits the description is what most of these answers have, but *a protagonist* who fits the bill is probably a lot harder to find.
And you are correct that in both of the films above the male character is the protagonist, or "the character whose fate matters most and who faces significant obstacles" per the definition of the term. The female characters are the one creating those obstacles.

Impromptu (1991).
My favorite rom-com, historical, and it's got a great cast. Based on "George Sand" pursuing Fredric Chopin "like a man" cause he has little interest in her, while her former lovers are quite literally fighting duels for her, while she has no interest in them. It's free on Tubi and stars Judy Davis, Hugh Grant, Julian Sands, Bernadette Peters, Mandy Patinkin, and Emma Thompson... And it basically checks all the boxes you mentioned, except it's not French/New Wave.

The second half of *Chungking Express* (1994) is kind of this, though the title of protagonist is probably at best shared with the male lead. And while it’s decidedly not “French New Wave,” with Wong Kar-Wai as director, it’s actually stylistically in the ballpark.

So, many will point out, that Norma Desmond ist the antagonist, but i still see her as Protagonist, so i will point out "Sunset Boulevard"

Cant believe this hasn’t been suggested yet, SLEEPING WITH OTHER PEOPLE has Alison Brie obsessed to the core with a character but that character is not the MMC.

She's the Man is a teen Romcom with some of that
Misery is the classic one (Stephen King book which became one or more movies ;)
Psych has several episodes about that, with Yin and Yang

The French movie 'The Piano Teacher' mostly fits your description.
Its pretty disturbing though, at the same time it's one of the best movies ever made

À la folie... pas du tout. It's an amazing fit for this. Audrey Tautou plays a woman in love with a married man to the point of going insane.
It's pretty interesting for telling it from different perspectives: hers and his.
If you watch it, let me know what you thought.

My Best Friend's Wedding is this movie, and so is He's Just Not That Into You, but the latter is one of those movies where everyone is connected, but we don't find out how until later. If you hate those, don't bother watching. Your life won't be enriched by having seen it. It's kind of bad. But it does fit your criteria.

Is this how you feel towards someone? Are you looking to feel a connection with a female that is obsessed with someone, just like you?

He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not a French movie starring Audrey Tautou. It starts off telling the story of an art student who’s having an affair with a married doctor. Then halfway through the movie switches to the doctor’s perspective.
>!turns out she’s a stalker who’s been imagining she’s in a relationship with the doctor and the doctor has no idea who she is!<
