Romantic Love Relationships: " My limerent situation involves a woman who's been cutting my hair for about 10 years or so... always enjoyed seeing and chatting w/her at that monthly appointment... she caught her fiance with someone else and that was the end of that, so we used to talk about that,life ect...never thought she'd ever really be interested in me,but 3 months ago or so, she started showing signs of interest...but I was apprehensive, not wanting to perhaps loose her as a friend if it didn't work (dumb? who knows...). Asked her out for a quick bite to eat after my next appointment...politely blew me off (she can be very guarded and defensive,anyway...)...next appointment acted quite defensive,then like a teenager (she's 36) with an "as if" attitude, seemingly enjoying the opportunity although we've known each other for over 10 years. Now I absolutely cannot stop thinking about her...all day long...INCREDIBLY frustrating...interferes with work (a new job recently, hard to concentrate on it sometimes...) you can't talk your way out of it,it's like your thoughts are on automatic pilot. I'm trying to decide if I can ever go back to her again...things will never be the same. I've decided to cancel my next appointment to give it some time and see how I feel. Won't be the end of the world if I don't go back...why go through all the frustration and longing for nothing? But I've gotten to know her fairly well and we did think of each other as friends...maybe just her way of dealing with all guys...who knows, but it will be a loss one way or the other. Romantic Love Relationships: "My relationships of "love" are in and out ,I have had many high's and limerence over men and only for a few months it subsides and I'm searching for another victim .I cant eat or sleep and my concentration at work has suffered. ." F 45 - 54yrs Romantic Love Relationships: "I had this limerence with a long time married friend. I was in an unhappy marriage and felt that this man was my everything. Although he decided to stay in his marriage for the sake of his children I think about him all the time. The intensity of the limerance is subsiding( I haven't seen him in a year) but I often feel that this sort of emotional connection will never leave. I also feel that he feels the same way. We spoke about limerance when we were seeing each other. It's is probably more hightened by the fact that it is a love which will never be. He has decided to stay married. In some ways that longing feeling was never fullfilled. Perhaps that is what makes it even more intense ." F 35 - 44 yrs Romantic Love Relationships: " I am a middle-aged man with a wife and children whom I love. I met a very young girl (a student of mine) who seemed to show a great deal of interest in me. I developed a huge crush on her. It sounds completely stupid because I know there is no chance of realizing a relationship. I am not a pedophile, but I have have these intense limerent feelings about her. It makes me miserable.." M 45 - 54 yrs Romantic Love Relationships: " I think it is something everyone should experience for it provides a kind of fantasy, however, it should never be the basis for marriage. ." F 25 - 34 yrs |
