56,976 subscribers
Distinct from love (as it is traditionally understood), or lust, limerence is a concept pioneered by psychologist Dorothy Tennov's seminal research as described in her book, "Love and Limerence." This sub is a community of people who self-identify as being in the state of limerence and are looking for support and strategies to deal with it.

The best way to get rid of an LO is to get a new one. I hate that but I’m grateful for it. 😮‍💨
