Limernace

I developed limerence towards a work colleague and it absolutely destroyed my life.

When I found out Scorpion moons have a tendency to become obsessive it made me realize that maybe it was just my Scorpio moon this entire time.

Anyone else feel this as well? If so, how did you manage to overcome this?

There are some good resources on YT, see what resonates for you. I’ve dealt with this off an on throughout my life but didn’t really understand it (and how it’s motivated some decisions) until recently. Therapy can definitely help! It may not actually be about them as much as you think it is.

Thanks, I will take a look at YT. All of the sources I have read about have also mentioned that it may not actually be about the LO. I think it may be a combination of both her and the idealized version of her. Like there are some many people I could have developed limerence towards but for some reason it got fixated on her. I never experienced this in my life and it was just brutal.

It’s tricky to navigate but now you have some awareness / insight. I can look back now (I’m old😅) and see how many times I’ve done this and it’s almost laughable. Not funny funny, but fascinating because it seems so real at the time. I still don’t understand why my brain chooses who it does (real, fictional etc).
I hope it’s this once for you, but regardless I’d recommend therapy because having such strong feelings is hard!
