Tell your own love and limerence story HERE

For the better part of 3 years, I was totally in love with a co-worker. I did things for her at work that no one else was willing to do. I even went as far as to learn her job so that she can take her vacations without fear that her work would be backed up when she returned. I would've done just about anything for her if she had ask.

I also sent flowers to her home on her bithdays She would send back a thank cards for the flowers but looking back it was probably from a sense of obligation rather than genuine sincerity. She also never reciprocated in any way, shape, or form all the nice things I did for her. I should've taken the hint.

Anyway I just recently I told her how I felt about her and sad to say she said she thought of me only as a good friend and co-worker and basically just tossed me and my feelings aside like a used rag. And get this... I found out she fell in love with someone else in the office, someone I also know. How cruel is that?

Worst is that her desk is right next to mine and I'll have to see and deal with her everyday knowing she doesn't give a damn about me and my feelings and is writing email love note to her new found love."

Romantic Love Relationships: I have a deep need to be loved!
Female writer: Age 25 - 34

Every relationship I get into is limerant.

My current one is limerant for me and while at times I feel it is limerant for him also, there are times when I feel that it is not. I have come to despise this side of me. It is torturous to experience loss of control and focus on your own life just to have the other person reject you because of it.

. I grew up thinking that in order to have a successful relationship you must make your life coincide with your significant other because to bring your lives together and bring your goals and desires to be as one is what love was all about. But I have come to understand that love is not like that. Men always want what they can't have and for me to be the way that I am, well, most likely it will make my current boyfriend leave me too.

. I try to be hard-to-get, elusive, but the truth is, I have a deep need to be needed and loved and it's hard for me. This may take me my whole life to figure out and learn from and very possibly many u! nsuccessful relationships...which I'm not looking forward to but I am looking forward to what I will learn from each experience.
