What a ride!

This book is definitely for anyone who has experienced limerence before. It helps to hear the experiences of others because it will not only validate your feelings, but there’s also so much to learn and understand about these emotions that otherwise make you feel like you’re crazy.

Limerence is real

It’s good limerence gets to have a whole book. It’s a real feeling, so strong and overwhelming. What i had heard and experienced is, it goes away when the relationship becomes real. This book suggests it can continue in a relationship. What’s the cure?

Well researched, compassionate, and thoughtful.

I liked the audio presentation. Information presented in manner to hold listeners interest. Well done. Subject was treated with thoroughness and respect as well as empathy.

Wait, this is real!?!

Loved it! Finally understood what was going on! I wish somebody else was continuing this research and could shine a light on it with respect to our predatorial online media: TikTok, YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, twitch, etc.

Very thorough book on limerence

This book increased my knowledge on the topic. I enjoyed every second of it…couldn’t stop listening!
