Limerence refers to an involuntary cognitive and emotional state of intense romantic desire for another person. The term was coined by psychologist Dorothy Tennov to describe the ultimate, near-obsessional form of romantic love.
The concept is an attempt at a scientific study into the nature of romantic love. Limerence can often be what is meant when one expresses having intense feelings of attachment and preoccupations with the love object.
According to Tennov, there are at least two types of love: limerence, what she calls "loving attachment", and "loving affection," the bond that exists between an individual and his or her parents and children.
Limerence is characterized by intrusive thinking and pronounced sensitivity to external events that reflect the disposition of the limerent object towards the individual. It can be experienced as intense joy or as extreme despair, depending on whether the feelings are reciprocated.
-------------------------I find this very interesting,
people around me are like this,
they fall for one another,
and get love struck like it's the end of the world.
Many many good examples,
people aren't able to differentiate Love and Infatuation,
that's how they get into short relationships or hook up's.
Which are actually a waste of time,
and many of them take it as a game.
I don't understand how you people feel about this,
but to me "Love" isn't a game.
Sentosa with 2Ao8 today,
it rained suddenly right after i ate the last chicken wing.
Lucky lucky!
k k k k!
Sessioned in the evening,
and home not long ago (:
You changed a lot since sec 1 & 2,
i don't know what has gotten into you,
you aren't that innocent, kind good girl i used to love dearly anymore.
It seems that you are becoming shallower day by day,
thinking that your best friend(s) is/are all god can give.
Who are good or bad isn't what i can do and show to you,
you have to find out for yourself,
don't wait for things to happen,
do something about it before it happens.
Oh beautiful,
all i did was looked at you for 8 months.
If you could do it to me,
you can do it to anyone else,
but you won't do it to him.
No one knows better about everything,
than you and me.
