When your parents didn’t love you properly, the feeling of falling in love is often followed by a dramatic lapse into insecurity. When they pull away it has a spooky, deep emotional power for you. And it’s very easy to confuse that dark feeling with something it most definitely is NOT... LOVE. In fact, people in a state of limerence often say they are "confused," though it's easy to see from the outside that the confusion is between the reality they WANT to see, and the disappointing TRUTH. In this video I respond to a letter from a woman who senses that she may have fallen again into the dark water of limerence.

I like this video because it is giving me exact examples of what someone who is genuinely interested in me, will act like. Thanks for sharing, Anna. Edit: I thought about this last night after posting this comment. How do I know the difference between a genuinely sincere man whose behaviour towards me makes me happy and someone who is a Narcissist "love bombing" me?

I'd say it's the intensity. And how he reacts to rejection. Love bombing is too intense for a new relationship.

@ebbyc1817 11 месяцев назад
Not only narcissists love-bomb, codependents love-bomb. Love-bombing is a way of getting the other person to not see your flaws. You "blind" them with affection. With a genuinely sincere person, there are few highs and lows, attention will be consistent, actions will be consistent. There won't be the sudden switch from I feel like I've known you my whole life, to complete stranger, and back again, or from "you're perfect" , to "what the hell is wrong with you". They won't try to fix you.They will ask you what you want, not tell you what you should want. Your opinions will count as much as theirs. There will be no power struggle. They won't try to mother you or father you, they won't let you mother them or father them. You won't feel like you have to say Yes, or like you should avoid saying No. You may feel like that anyway but it won't be because of them, because their actions will be consistent. Also, the only truth teller with people is time. You will never really know who a person is, in one week or one day, but give it six months, and you will know.

I don't think love bombing impacts people the same way at all. I'm pretty sure a secure person will feel off when love bombing comes their way. They don't find it cute and magical. They find it rather spooky and too much too soon. Their personal boundaries will set up.

😔Aww! I'm sorry! For 15 years. I stayed with a man who emotionally and physically abused me. I got with him when I was 17. For a long time, I regretted it. My 20s were supposed to be fun and memorable! They were memorable, but not good memories! Now, I realize I can't change it, which has strengthened me. Yes, I still have times when I get down and regret it, but it isn't like it used to be. My issue now is trusting men. I've been single for 12 years and still can't get into a serious relationship with anyone. I hate to say it, but having sex with someone is much easier than talking to someone (for me, anyway.) But then, I've never trusted men, even when I was a child. But then I don't trust people in general. Sigh..

Wishing you the best it's a hard journey. These people are demons!! No one deserves to feel their lives or a part of their lives have been stolen. I'm sorry you've had to go through that. I agree with you about connecting sexually more than forming relationships. People can be really disappointing. After trauma we do deserve to heal and love again, it's just hard to feel deserving of it. That's a journey of re-programming the mind to believe we're worthy. It's just hard when so many ppl have been completely terrible. Narcissists can smell trauma from a mile away they're like sharks. I wish we all had protection from them.

I loved someone dearly. I didn't have to make an effort to be with him. I wanted to be. But somehow it was never enough for very long. He had this fear I would leave, and fear that I would cheat. A beautiful romantic trip to the market could turn into him suddenly panic and turn against me because I apparently flirted with the seller he stopped and bought stuff from. Weird experience. I love him still. But I 'm not putting up with his sudden lashing out against me. And he left me anyway because I'm not " trustworthy" and no doubt believes I was not that into him and I didn't care. I did very much so. He just never believed it.

It’s intermittent reinforcement, which is worse cause there is no schedule at all. Especially with ghosting . I’ve allowed myself to go through this before due to feeling guilty with too much texting or getting angry and person would literally disappear forever and I’d be longing so when he came back I’d still see him tho having hesitations. Totally devastating situation to experience if you are a person who gets hooked .

Thank you for confirming it, Anna: a healthy, mutually committed relationship doesn't actually heal trauma. I had eight wonderful years with my late mate before the Alzheimer's got conspicuous. And I'd really thought our time together healed me. Two months after his death I jumped into the empty sex a new acquaintance wanted. The ever-worse loneliness slapped me awake after three months. That's when I realized, it isn't going away. I've resumed repairing and guarding my own wellbeing. As far as my healthy libido goes, I'm glad I've still got one, and my vivid imagination is warmer and more loving than a guy like that ever could be. My late mate and I DID prove to me that I am cherish-able, and may be again. I'm permanently done settling for less.

Hi fairy and team!! Just wanted to drop some positivity on this video, love you insights on limerence. I recently joined a 12 step group in my area and even though everyone there is much older and different than me, I really for the first time feel like I belong. CPTSD really thrives in isolation and it's been life changing to finally be vulnerable and safe with a group of great people. It releases me so much from the grip of limerence and perfectionism. Have a great week!

I think attachment wounds might be the most deep seated issues anyone can have, because they can happen so early in life. Even before a child develops speech. Also if the so called interpersonal bridge between baby and mother is disturbed in a very early age... the trust necessary for relationships and life itself might be missing. I can now safely say (thanks to therapy and lots of resouces like this channel) that this was the case in my childhood.

I’m a male with anxious attachment. I was with a woman for about a year with disorganized attachment. All I can say is that this is all very very real. That (aside from my childhood abuse) was the most painful experience of my life. Even more so than the relationship with my child’s mother (narcissism). The come here go away dynamic in disorganized attachment is so powerful. She was such a beautiful person but so very wounded. My attachment was triggered for over a year and now the grief and longing that it’s over is so painful. I’m so thankful I have a good therapist. I tolerated crumbs, ignored red flags, and craved her attention. When she would choose me the high I got was unbelievable. The rejection though was catastrophic. I never wanted anyone in my life like that.

I met a guy at work and we had a flirtationship and decided to date. He then moved out of state. I did all I could to keep in touch. He kept telling me he loved and missed me. He also ignored my calls and left my texts on read. This went on for three years. Then without warning he ghosted me last year. He just blocked me on all social media without any explanation. I had also recently lost my job. I don’t want him back. In fact, every time I start to miss him I remind myself that he abandoned me during a very tough time of my life. No limerence here.

I kind of think that I have a "touch of limerence" about both my sisters. They've both been cold and abandoning. One is so toxic, I can't even talk to her. We text rarely, because she's never sorry, and it's way late. Other sister can really connect, then she drops me like a "hot potato" for her husband and well-off friends. So I text occasionally. Both won't get off their high horses. I go to 12 step groups. I got rid of the terrible guys. I used to live out the Judy Garland song " Maybe this Time", but that's Limerence!

So I cut them all out. Life has been slowly getting better since.

Wow. I just exited a situation that was almost identical to Gina's except the guy was not divorced but he does live in another country and I met him when I was on vacation there 2 years ago. The amazing thing, though, is that this has given rise to getting down to the root cause of why this happens to me by watching this channel. The other time this happened to me was back in 2008 and back in college I was in a 1 1/2 year relationship with a man who had an interest in me but was so broken the relationship was a train wreck. I am so thankful that I am finally seeing the light and the root cause to my problems. This is off-topic, Anna, but do you think that you could do a video on why someone may have a history of being pursued by men that they have no interest in even to the point of marriage? Even though I've had limerence going on in my past, this has also been a pattern in my life.

Dear Anna, you always talk about how important support is, and that we can get it through 12 steps programs, but we don't have those in my country, so I was wondering if there is any other options... I'm fearful-avoident and I've retracted back into my shell so hard the last few years, so I tend to avoid human contact as best as I can. I would really appreciate some insight... (P.S: I have no friends and have a really hard time building any forms of strong connections with people...)

I grew up in a messed-up family, and now I'm caught up in this weird three-way relationship situation-or maybe not even a proper three-way. It's more like I'm the extra wheel in a couple's dynamic, thrown in sometimes for fun to fulfill guys' fantasies. His girlfriend knows about it. I'm feeling hurt and it's pretty clear that it's just plain disrespecting myself. I get what's going on, but I'm stuck and don't know what to do about it. It seems like I somehow find a strange satisfaction in feeling hurt and abandoned.
@dotendit
@dotendit 7 месяцев назад
Familiair. You've to reach a point that you find feeding your own life with your energy more important and more interesting than feeding their dynamic. It's a turning point, a waking up. Watch your feelings towards this man, he's using you both, so if anger, rage, disgust and such things occur, don't put them off. Also begin with eliminating people who keep you in Cinderella mode, like you only deserve a minimum. And start working towards what could make your own life more interesting and enjoyable.

I've been married to a covert narcissist for 26 years. I'm divorcing him. I was abandoned by my father several times as a child and my mom gave me up once. I do have abandonment issues. After our marriage my husband pretty much abandoned me to a lonely marriage. It took me this long to figure out why, he's a narcissist. My problem right now is even though I know I should not worry about what people think but I can't help thinking that they would come to the conclusion that I did something to make him abandon me. Listening to this has made me come to terms with that fact. How do I get past this self deprecating attitude. I know what's right and what I should be thinking but these negative thoughts, I just find myself thinking them without wanting to.

I got the Delta Max last winter to use as a general power supply (via AC) in my van. I hope I'm not damaging it by having it plugged in all the time, but the way things are where I live, the day I'd unplug it to let it run down would be the day the power is out, ha. I bought the Wave2 the day it released. It's been an adventure, particularly with the drain function. I'd like to clarify what the best cable is to run the Wave2 with the Delta Max? I need one longer than what comes with it, as the units can't be close together in my van due to the logistics. I saw something about a cord with a bit of gold at one end, and it runs well over $100. Please advise.

I would tell her to not regret it because he was another narcissist, but I deeply understand the feelings. I also regreted many times acting how she acted - because we can never be 100% sure If someone is narcissist or no. But the way how they treated you says it all.

No that and limerence no longer effects me. And I'm not interested in pursuing someone who intentionally discluded me hoping just for that result. It's very self centered and thats as rejectful as you can get. Message received. It's a major red flag and I don't want to be around people who already make that a habit. If I don't deserve better friends than that I'm perfectly fine having 0 friends. I'm not use to people who are interested in me that I'm interested in. Infact I don't trust a single person who behaves they are interested in me.

Does an anxious attachment ever disappear, or always have to be calmed and laid to rest again? I have been married to a kind, loving man for 33 years and occasionally he still reassures me that he's not going to leave me. I still have an underlying expectation of being abandoned if I mess up. It's mostly quiet, but it's still there.

My whole life has been just one limerent background with major episodes of limerence. The stepfather was bashing me and my blood brothers. In the meantime l hardly saw the alleged mother. I only saw her after school but all she did was put on makeup. Why? Because she was a sex money exchange operative. I hated her from age 8. When she would occasionally hug me I'd recoil like a sea anemone. She died in May. I never went to her funeral. None of us surving four boys went. Women treat me like shit. I haven't had a relationship in 11 years.
