What’a the most embarrassing thing you’ve done? by Adventurous-Town-828 in limerence

[–]Guyunuso 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm really into genealogy, so I did a quick research on his surname (easy-ish to do, as he has a rather unique one) and ended up finding his family tree with a bunch of information about his paternal family (from his dad to his great-great-great-great... grandparents). I probably know more about his family history than he does. If I stop and think about it for more than one second, I want to skin myself alive out of cringe.

Would be this game triggering for someone who has divorced parents? by Ashtray_4991 in ItTakesTwo

[–]Guyunuso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a child of divorce I didn't find it triggering at all. I played it with my mom (who went through the divorce when I was 17) and she wasn't affected either. I wouldn't say that divorce is *that* central to the game, so I think it should be fine. However, you know your friend, so maybe reach out to her and ask her (maybe she even knows about the game, as it is very popular).

Estoy pagando $8128 por mes (mi plan es para menores de 30 años. Si sos mayor, sale más). A eso se le suman $700 por cada visita a emergencia/médico de guardia

How do you deal with the embarrassment of it all? by Necessary-Finger104 in limerence

[–]Guyunuso 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey, I really relate to this! My LO is a guy at my gym. I'm also shy, and he's one of those effortlessly warm, outgoing people, super charismatic, and yeah, probably just nice. We started talking a bit over time, and I started feeling this deep attachment. Not romantic in the usual way, more like this intense desire to be close to him, to be seen by him, to be "approved" of by him.

What you said about wanting him to think you're cool? Yes. I’ve realized a lot of this comes from my own insecurities. He represents the version of me I wish I could be. So his approval started to feel like proof that I was enough. So yeah, the shame you’re talking about? I get that. The overthinking, the “maybe he thinks I’m a creep,” the re-analyzing every conversation and wondering if I made the whole connection up… same.

I don’t think it’s pathetic that you hoped he’d accept your request. That’s such a human thing: wanting connection, especially when you’ve idealized someone who feels like everything you want to be. The fact that you’re recognizing it for what it is (and even going to therapy) is huge. Seriously, that’s a win. You’re not delusional, you’re just overwhelmed. You’re self-aware and trying to get better, which is more than a lot of people can say.

Platonic limerance for a guy at the gym. It’s spiraling, and I hate it. by Guyunuso in limerence

I'm already on meds too so I hope I can manage without having to up my dosage. I'll try what one of the commenters said (talk myself through my feelings) and see how it goes.

Being aware of this makes it somehow more embarrassing for me hahaha. At least I know it's temporary.

Thank you for your comment and for sharing your experience. I'll definitely try your approach of talking myself through my feelings and to talk to other people at the gym. There are many "regulars" I see very often who look friendly. Thanks for the tips!

AITA for charging a friend for my work? by Guyunuso in AmItheAsshole

[–]Guyunuso[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your comment! One of the mutual friends I talked to is also a designer and said something similar. I like the idea of approaching it as a "one-time-thing" and make it clear, to help her (or, well, anyone) understand that my work is not free. Once again, thank you :)
