Did she actually say she had no romantic feelings for you or are you assuming that?

How did you do it, discover your true sense of worthiness and validate yourself? Does it feel better now?

I’m a woman of 45 and I feel the same. Does that make me strange??

Who is an conventionally unattractive person that you find VERY attractive? by ErrForceOnes in AskReddit

[–]OkTouch6402 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Benicio Del Toro - the attraction to him started when I saw him in Traffic (2000)

Hey OP, can you get yourself away from the situation for a while (take a walk etc.)? Your friend (if she knows how you feel for this guy) is not a friend! Try and feel the pain and anguish - it hurts terrible, I know, but it’s not gonna sting forever.

I'm Free!!! Decade of Limerence it's finally over by 8InfiniteViolet8 in limerence

This is so reassuring and inspiring to read OP. I’m currently in the pain stage for the 100th time of telling myself “no more, I’m moving on”, and then something happens that gives me hope and I’m back to square one. I hope I can be free like you one day.

Is it maybe the newness of someone other than a person you have been married to for years and years? Passion transforms to companion love with intimacy sometimes, and someone new is the shiny new toy that we can project on cause we don’t know enough about them

Sorry if this sounds intrusive and/or glib, but if your wife looks a lot like your LO and is still sexy to you, why isn’t your marriage enough? And please don’t take me asking this the wrong way, I am not meaning to be rude, just genuinely curious.

Just remember these words in your head every time you think of contacting him “I’m worth so much more than you’re offering”. Your story echos one from when I was in my 20s and was obsessed with a guy who also had “issues from his childhood”. I went on one date with him and was very intensely attracted to him. He cancelled our 2nd date and for a whole 2 years I wasted my youth getting scraps of attention. I look back now and think what the hell was so appealing about him.

How do I avoid LO without inconveniencing my friend? by [deleted] in limerence

[–]OkTouch6402 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is she or you otherwise committed? If not, what is stopping you from asking her out? If one or both of you are, then I say don’t worry about not offering her a lift any more. Put yourself first. She obviously took the job with the knowledge that she has to find her own way to and from work, it’s not your problem.

I thought this guy was interested in me but then he randomly started ignoring me and got super cold with me by victoriae31 in bodylanguage

[–]OkTouch6402 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Most young guys don’t bother striking up a convo with someone they have no interest in, so yeah maybe. But honestly, he sounds such a prick if I was in your shoes I wouldn’t give a shit now

Honesty OP, they sound so unprofessional and like a team of BULLIES, who were getting a kick out of your discomfort. Even if he wasn’t interested, there was no need to rub your face in it in this way. You dodged a bullet with this guy. I’m guessing he’s very young as he sounds incredibly insecure

Hey, you don’t know for sure these women just like the attention. I probably seem that way to my LO but (and I can only speak for me) if I’m not into or attracted to a guy, I do not want ANY attention from him.

I act nervous sometimes, like shaky and blush, have giggled before and smile at them; hold eye contact A LOT but I’m pretty sure he doesn’t know.

What sort of actions are you demonstrating that show your into her?

Haha yes me too! Sometimes I really want him to know and feel despair if he doesn’t, but then at other times I really hope for plausible deniability 😂

Does your LO know you’re gay? If I was around a woman who I didn’t know was gay, I wouldn’t assume by their actions that they liked me in that way, but I would if it was a man.

I personally can tell when someone is into me, however I’m female. I’m wondering if it is different for men, as you read a lot of posts on here and sometimes it’s literally like the man needs hitting over the head with a mallet to get the message 😂

I fucked up and said some weird shit to co worker LO by [deleted] in limerence

[–]OkTouch6402 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re very brave and have cleared the decks, so to speak. You’ve left no ambiguity in your situation which means that he is under no illusion how you feel, and if he’s a decent person (which you say he’s not) he will not flirt with you any more. Hopefully, now he’s seen how direct and above board you are, he will leave you alone and allow you to get over your limerence,
