We will work together, so that you may have a life more in line with your values and integrity.

    This is going to sound crazy but mutual limerence felt better than anything else I ever experienced. It ended badly and with a lot of pain and I know it was destructive for me and the other person, but I still miss those feelings we had in the first few months. I feel like a part of me will always miss it. It's really scary, I imagine this is what it's like to be addicted to illegal substances

      Were there obstacles? Were you both with someone else? It’s hard to hear as the partner of someone that experienced this. Feels like you can’t match up to the hormones and feelings of longing that someone unavailable creates. It’s crazy making.

    With all due respect this letter makes the writer sound insane.
    My partner left me for someone that he knew for 4 months and it lasted 3 months with her.
    I’m still so traumatised by being dragged into this hell on earth.
    Please anyone feeling this way don’t make rash decisions. It will pass.

    For the past 6 years I’ve experienced limerence towards someone who is in a relationship and ended up getting married. It’s mental self harm/torture- I wish I could turn off my feelings

      Try and find some community work to get the confidence about yourself up so that you don't NEED anyone else but they compliment you. You need some self love.

    That was great video Fenna thank you! I have a problem that I need to test my feelings after going no contact for several months! I saw my LO again after 3 months no contact! It wasn’t enough. I went back to limerence loop but I helped myself to get out from it so fast !! Lesson learned:) I prefer no eye contact nor small talk. I am done!!!

      They don’t listen when they’re in the middle of it anyway. My partner left for someone he knew for 4 months. It lasted less than 3 with her once he was gone. Hope you’re ok.

    • @mariad1151
      @mariad1151 Před 10 měsíci +2

      Wouldn't "moderate love" be what is called an oxymoron? Is there such a thing as moderate love? Doesn't it sound loathsome? Romeo & Juliet were "star-crossed lovers"--Sounds better than cursed, I guess. I try not to think of the state of limerence as being cursed, so maybe I'll change it to "star-crossed." It's cosmic but not personal.... We'll see🤔

    Because the fiance of the man under the spell informed the husband of the female under the spell, it became very hard for the long-distance love birds to even have online contact. But that did not help them (much). I guess if the no-contact is not a determination and backed up by insight / conviction - but forced upon them by "circumstances" then the no-contact is of little value. There are countless opportunities to _think_ of the love interest. In a way that was not a self-imposed boundary but another obstacle that intensified the addiction.
    Likely her husband had put down some firm boundaries and she had to give up a smartphone and had to give him all passwords to her social media accounts. And the fiance on the other side might have had an equally strong grip on her "star-struck" man.

      Forced no contact can create a Romeo and Julia effect . Good luck to you!

      Of course I can't answer with no further information but of what I've seen so far is if people are in a very high on hormones relationships they tend to have attachment wounds.

    So they are not in the same country, have never met in person and put their family resp. engagement at risk. And it feels almost impossible for the woman writing the letter to pull out of it. And the male part may not event try to end it.
