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?

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.

Really opened my eyes.

This is a must-read for men and women alike. It explains so much about what is sold to us and what people experience. Definitely something you should have a budding teenager read.

Much needed read

I had heard of limerance but wasn't clear on what it meant. I had heard of the book and this research and was delighted to find it on audible. If you have ever wondered what was going on with your or others’ overpassionate and overpowering feelings of what must truly be “love” and why some don't experience it the same way, here are some answers. This book should be shared with all, especially the young.

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.
