The Agony of Eros: On Limerence - By Ava - Bookbear Express

I know that limerence can be misleading. It can be the beginning of a good relationship, or a complete disaster. If someone feels like the answer to the question of your life, you might want to address the fundamental sense of lack that they are triggering.

You end up being in a relationship with your own mind.

You convince yourself that it's just a “misunderstanding,” that they are actually just as obsessed with you as you are with them, but in a more subtle, mature way.

Want to avoid facing the realities of your own life?

Looking to add some spice to your usual avoidant tendencies?

Try limerence today!
