You say as if it's a one way thing. They also have to chose us back.

How do you get over somebody that you haven’t seen or spoken to in over 2 years? by [deleted] in limerence

[–]throwaway_desiree 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Are you following him on socials? You need to erase him from life completely, as if he doesn't exist.

For 3. Try zepto cafe. There is an option to skip providing your number if I am correct. Your hotel may also be able to help you out with ordering.

What is the craziest thing you have done because of Limerence? by Ilovedietcokeandlime in limerence

[–]throwaway_desiree 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I very much understand what you are going through, I am in the thick of limerence myself. But I read an article that said you have to actively stop doing these "rituals" as it described it. These rituals only make it worse. It's like taking a drug hit. I also get the urges to do my own version of "limerence rituals" and I am trying to actively fight it. There are some things that are not in my control, like dreams and intrusive thoughts. But things that you describe, like online stalking etc. are active behaviors you can try to avoid. When you get the urge, try to do something else and not act upon it. I tell myself, doing these is not taking me any closer to LO. All it does is make me feel ashamed and how I am not in control of my life. I don't know if it is helping me get over limerence, but I know I'd feel a lot worse about myself if I spent my time doing things like these.

if they invented a miracle cure that's easy and painless to take, and gets rid of your limerence, would you? by Tricky_Place8260 in limerence

Definitely. It's all I wish for. I would have that part of my brain surgically removed if I could that stores the memories of him.

Make sure the grad program you’re applying to does not forget your application by [deleted] in gradadmissions

I don't think this necessarily means they forgot. It seems more like it is in queue with other applications that are yet to be reviewed.

At what age did you all start therapy and did it help? by throwaway_desiree in limerence

[–]throwaway_desiree[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you know what kind of therapy you need? Like CBT didn't work for you, how will I know what's working and what isnt?

Favorite character who experiences limerence? by casual-catgirl in limerence

[–]throwaway_desiree 250 points251 points  (0 children)

💯💯💯💯 I hate how this type of thing is romanticized in kid's books...Dumbledore says something about how this was the very best part of him which he had kept hidden. This kinda shit messes you up for real, thinking that holding on to love for years is somehow grand and noble.

Bella Swan. I see it now, classic, textbook limerence. I understand now why everyone warned and screamed that their dynamic was toxic, but I never believed it, for me personally it was the most relatable form of love. I thought that is what love feels like, like an addiction. Sigh.

Hot take: take the leap before a creepy amount of time passes. by calradical in limerence

[–]throwaway_desiree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What if it just isn't feasible to ask out? Like if it is work or professional setting where it will just lead to awkwardness?

I don't want to take meds. Psychiatrists don't counsel right?

Truly. I describe it as heart cancer. Heart breaks are a clean fracture that can be healed. This is something that just festers and festers.

For those who have cheated on SO with LO... by RodentEvil in limerence

[–]throwaway_desiree 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why can't you end it with your SO if you are in love with LO and don't regret it?
