Do you believe in limerence?

 

When asked if I believe in limerence, I had to admit I wasn't sure what it meant.

So, like many others, I Googled it to understand better.

 

Limerence is a psychological state where you have an intense, obsessive infatuation with another person.

You have an overwhelming need for them to feel the same way and can't stop thinking about them.

You idealize them and experience emotional highs and lows based on their responses.

Unlike the steady, mature love that grows over time, limerence is more about obsession and less about deep, mutual understanding.

 

Human emotions are complex and unpredictable.

The intensity and irrationality of limerence make it both fascinating and a bit scary.

It can happen to anyone at any time, often without warning.

The idea that someone could be so consumed by their feelings for another person, to the point of obsession, is both intriguing and unsettling.

 

However, I don't think limerence would easily happen to me.

This doesn't mean I'm immune to intense emotions or infatuation, but I approach relationships with realism and self-awareness.

I'm cautious about becoming overly fixated on someone, especially if the feelings aren't reciprocated or if the relationship isn't healthy.

That said, emotions are tricky, and it's always possible to be surprised by feelings you didn't expect.

 

Falling deeply in love is a natural part of the human experience, and most people will experience it at some point.

However, limerence is different from regular love.

Love typically involves a growing bond based on mutual respect, understanding, and shared experiences.

Limerence, on the other hand, often lacks these elements and can be all-consuming, which can be harmful to one's emotional well-being.
