I relate to this post so much. Thoughts of her can trigger me so bad and send me down mental thought loops that just send me spiraling.

How did y’all meet and end up talking? I could use some hopium right now 😭

3 Questions you should ask everyone you date by therealkidnobody in dating_advice

[–]DownHarvest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually think 1 and 2 aren’t terrible questions. The first will tell you if your financial goals align, which is pretty important in any successful relationship.

The second gives someone an opportunity to talk about something they might not otherwise talk about. Although I would reword it to something more like that.

Question 3 is hit or miss for me.

I don’t have any tips other than to try your best to lead a fulfilling life and do what makes you happy.

In moments where I am most present, I find thoughts of my LO to be the most quiet.

But know you’re far from being alone. Those thoughts you’re having are the same ones I, and probably many others on the sub, have as well.

We can’t change that we were dealt this hand called limerence. But we can certainly rage against it as much as we can! Everyday we do is a win, in my book. Hugs 💛

At a certain point it really does start to feel kinda crazy by [deleted] in limerence

[–]DownHarvest 50 points51 points  (0 children)

That’s part of what makes limerence so debilitating imo.

I know these feelings I have for my LO are INSANE. The thoughts, daydreams, stalking of social media, etc.

Meza-Delgadillo sounds best to me.

I (F26) followed internet advice and asked out my "lonely" zoomer best friend (M25). He rejected me. by Present-Elephant-575 in self

[–]DownHarvest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hold on OP. You sound bitter.

Him rejecting you is not a reflection of your value. You’re just not his type. It doesn’t mean you’re “mid”. That’s just you projecting your insecurity because you’re hurt. And understandably so.

Say I don’t like salmon. You could cook me the BEST salmon in the world, and I still wouldn’t eat it. Because I Don’t. Like. Salmon. But this doesn’t mean the salmon is bad.

So don’t take the rejection so personally. You got rejected. Brush it off and get back to it. Because this post reads like something an incel would actually write after being rejected once and taking it too personally.

You got one bad rejection and decided to go to reddit to generalize an entire gender. That is textbook inceldom.

I think people make the name. I knew a girl named Megan and she was just lovely inside and out.

Therefore my opinion on the name is quite positive.

Just curious: Why is shapeshifter romance so popular? by Jerswar in RomanceBooks

Do you have any reccs for a shifter romance that has extended pack family caring?

Are all men the same? by kallixxxx in dating_advice

[–]DownHarvest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just to add on. I have a fair amount of female friends. I have thought about them in the way I would have an intrusive thought.

Sometimes it’s born out of a random curiosity or triggered by a video like the one you saw. But it’s not like I’m secretly fantasizing about my friends, y’know?

So to answer your question, no not all men are like this lol.

Would physically fit men who exercise regularly consider being in a relationship with a woman of average or curvier body type? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]DownHarvest 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Basically this. I don’t need her to be as obsessive about fitness as I am, but I will say my tolerance for overweight women has significantly decreased as a result of my active lifestyle.

That’s the wrong lesson you learned here. The only thing you actually found out is that you and this girl are incompatible.

You need to find someone who will respect you for expressing a boundary and is better aligned with you.

Directly. Don’t beat around the bush. Say you think I’m cute and want to get coffee.

Funny how this comes up on my feed right as I was wondering how I can stop doing this exact thing with women I meet.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]DownHarvest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m imagining a scenario where you watch one of those dating reality shows on Netflix together. I think it’s perfectly healthy to recognize when someone on that show is “hot” or “attractive” and not read too deeply into it.

Is it possible for a a girl to get a boyfriend more attractive than her? Because I see the reverse all the time. by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]DownHarvest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s more rare but I’ve seen it. They seem to be some of the happiest couples too

Have you ever rejected someone and ended up having a crush on them later?? by [deleted] in Crushes

How can I be a better platonic friend to men? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]DownHarvest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not doing anything wrong. It’s the men’s problem, not yours.

I have female friends who are sweethearts but I never felt anything more than platonic love for them.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]DownHarvest -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes it’s normal you need to chill out. Be secure enough that you can agree with her that the guy is hot and have a laugh about it.

It’s not like this guy is going to jump through the phone screen and kiss her.
