Limerence

Post Reply New Topic

Limerence is an intense crush that becomes all consuming but it is all in your head, a fantasy. I have had several incidences in my life where I have become preoccupied in my own thoughts about someone I admired, always at a distance, NEVER as a stalkerish way, just silently admiring and thinking of this individual. I have never acted or told anyone when I feel these feelings, it becomes kind of a pleasurable fantasy that I have - except it only lasts for a short time bc it never materializes as more than my fantasy. I was wondering if anyone could relate.

Yes I can relate too much. Just trying to get out of one of those phases now because I now realize romance will never occur with the person of my limerance

Oh that's interesting
I think I was asking about this the other day

This has happened to me many times over the years with several different people.

I don't usually tell tell them, as I don't want to be perceived as creepy.
