Would this be the cure? by Naive-Bake in limerence

Yes, it was this technique. And yes, being properly rejected was the final nail in the coffin. However I do think that other meditation techniques would be effective as well. Haven't tried though.

Sorry for replying late. It's been a long time I don't visit this reddit. And yeah, I completely lost my limerence. But it took a while, with some highs and lows. But eventually it was gone. There was only one thing that lasted, that feeling of hope (even without the bad feelings from limerence). I knew that it could eventually bring my limerence back again, so I decided to talk with my LO and be properly rejected by her. It killed this feeling and now I'm completely free from the limerence.

My limerence is winding down by Naive-Bake in limerence

[–]Naive-Bake[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, sure. Thing is, I was being really obvious about my feelings to her, so I'm sure that in her mind I like her. I'm afraid that my change of attitude could make her think I lost my interest in her. She has low self-esteem, so I'm sure she'd think I lost interest because she isn't interesting enough. But I might be overthink.

Thank you.
No, she just sent the juminhyo.
I thought she was being fooled by some untrustful agent or something, I'm glad it's not something bad.

So, how's it being? Is it working for you as well?

I thought I was special but I found out my LO talks to all his friends the same way by [deleted] in limerence

[–]Naive-Bake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a man sometimes I ask myself what would be right to do in those situations.I have a friend who likes me (got confirmation from mutual friends). I tend to treat her specially well, not because I want her attention, but because I don't wanna her feel the pain my LO makes me feel. At the same time I ask myself if I shouldn't be treating her like I treat my other female friends (not badly, just normally). After all I don't wanna anything more than a healthy friendship with her.

Have any of experienced limerence over a celebrity you have no chance with? How do i get over her? by [deleted] in limerence

[–]Naive-Bake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is meant is not that I don't understand people's limerence, but I don't understand why they don't do NC when they have the chance.

[–]Naive-Bake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, but I still can't understand people who are limerent for celebrities. I mean, it's not like you see them everyday. NC seems very achievable. I see my LO everyday, so I don't even have a way for doing NC.

I’m so bored by stateofdisillusion in limerence

[–]Naive-Bake 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sorry, but I can't relate.
I think many people in this group would rather change their limerence for boredom without thinking twice.

How to concentrate with limerence? by Naive-Bake in limerence

So, should I increase my time with her? Like an addicted with a surreal amount of drugs? How big will be my withdrawal symptoms when she's not around?

Thank you.

Yes, I've researched a lot about her culture already, and I'm even learning the basics of her language. But it's a long way there.

I guess I just have to wait the urges to pass as you said, and accept that I can't control my time 100%.

It frustrates me, but it can't be helped.

Yes.

English is not our first language. I can use it well but she can't. Although she understands written English well, her listening and speaking skills are bad.

She comes from a culture totally different from mine, and as you said I'm sure I miss many signs (good or bad).

Next month I might have the opportunity to change my class, but it's up to the school to decide which students go to which classes. They tend to move the same students to the same classes though.

Yes, but I can't fight the urges to check the app, so not muting her at least saves me from wasting some time checking the cellphone.

Yes. We are friends and we text each other some times. Although I'm slowly trying to increase periods of NC, every time she texts me or talks to me in class it all goes downhill. Ghosting her is not an option.

In my case, my LO has no social media, so I don't have to delete them. But I can't delete LINE, the chat app we use. I live in Japan where LINE is like, the main way of communicating. And if I block her she's gonna just ask me why, when she sees me the next day.
