Limerence Experienced

public - created 08/15/05
For those of us who have first hand experience of limerence...

Limerence: A powerful and constantly distracting and obsessive infatuation. A term first coined by Dorothy Tennov Ph.D. to describe the first stage of mad attraction that lasts, on average, 6 months to 3 years.

A good source of information:

Why create this tribe? Got tired of trying to explain what "limerence" is to people who have never experienced it. Come and share your experience with others who have been there as well.
