    That’s limerence.

    A more stable relationship is when feelings crystalize, but until then, there’s limerence. Two-way limerent relationships are as unstable as a bottle of undiluted nitroglycerin. In any case, limerent relationships are quite common, and are the stuff of music, art, and poetry.

      God lemmy is worse than reddit with people being negative about others happiness. If you are so unhappy you need to spoil other peoples happiness you need to get help.

        I want you to finish it. No one ever finishes it. I don’t even know the rest of the limerick because no one ever finishes it!

          I know a different version from the other two:

          There once was a man from Nantucket

          Who put all his shit in a bucket

          And one day he tripped

          And the bucket, it flipped

          And he said “ah well fuck it”
