This individual experience is something that many people have witnessed or gone through themselves. The excerpt begins well with the statement limerence enters your life pleasantly. It its definitely and unexpected, warm, pleasant feeling (obviously speaking from my own personal experience). When he says it is an interpretation of events rather than the events themselves, I said "Yes! Yes!". I believe its the effects and concept of the experience morso that holds meaning and worth. It is truly something I feel everyone should expensive at least once in their lives. After reading I believed that the whole idea of love and limerence held truth in saying it was related to obsession in a good way. The yearning and intrusive thoughts were accurate with obsessions definition as well as the idea of inappropriate actions/thoughts. The reason why I say inappropriate because from what I get from the reading is limerence is experienced from a select few of people in our lifetimes. In order for it to be limerence it cannot occur with everyone you become involved with. One major factor why I say this is since sex is seldom the main focus of limerence that eliminates many people's love/infatuation circumstances. Also, this is in conjunction with the statement that lime rent fantasies do not necessarily cease when an actual relationship begins. they may diminish or increase in frequency, depending on circumstances. I do not feel that this is a trait that can be felt with any and everyone. Places, people, words all play into what drives limerence, which is completely different with every experience encountered. I believe I myself felt limerence limitedly within in my life, once with a crush, and the second time with a boyfriend that is now one of my closest friends.
