Romantic Love Relationships: " Only when my wife dumped me for another person with whom she was having an affair, did I realize through therapy, that the euphoric state I was in in overlooking her behavior and constantly trying to achieve her favour was not true love but limerence." M 55 - 64 yrs Romantic Love Relationships: "
A week ago, my new neighbor in a suburban Chicago apartment building and
I spoke and exchanged names for the first time. Within a very few
minutes, we discovered that we were both from Philadelphia, and had attended
what was always spoken of as "brother and sister schools -- Phila. H.S.
for Girls and Central High. I won't claim it was "love at first
sight," but after just one week, we have managed to both phone, send e-mails
and/or "visit" one another daily, sharing anecdotes of common experiences,
photo albumns, names of families, friends or playmates that we both knew,
growing up, etc. He has been most attentive and complimentary of
my intelligence, wit, thoughtfulness. I guess I'm really being swept
off my feet because I'm ten years older than he is, and I'm flattered
that he thinks I don't seem to be. Romantic Love Relationships: " Limerance is both the best and worst experience I have ever had. I has given be some wonderful memories but also taken much of what was, objectively, better from me. The best thing about it is that it doesn't last - thank God!" M 45 - 54 yrs Romantic Love Relationships: " A week ago I experienced the "thunderbolt" for the first time in my life. It is way more intense than "love at first sight" which is physical attraction only. The only way I can describe how I feel is that I feel drugged with happiness like my endorphin and hormonal levels are at an all time high. I felt an immediate sense of connection, attraction, and rapport with the guy I met by chance and talked to for ten minutes. I am going to go after him soon and even if he rejects me I have gotten something very precious out of the experience which is the feeling that my life is now beginning and that my life can be beautiful because of the people in it. It has made me appreciate my family more." F 45 - 54 yrs |
