Oh boy. This took me back to my limerence era when I was having crushes like my life depended on it. Iā€™m inclined to lean into the idea that some of that was just a projection of my own low self esteem. But then limerence is delicious also. šŸ‘¹

I love your relationship emotional trajectory lines! They look just like Feynman Diagrams from quantum physics. The metaphor is apt. When two particles interact, they remain entangled even after they separate. Totally fun, but we don't need to get too carried away.

As for getting someone to fall in love with you, there's always the 'Fiddler On The Roof' way. Arranged marriages are probably one of the more successful ways to get somebody to fall in love with you.

Great story, I felt for you.

Working on falling in love with myself. Maybe it'll give people FOMO and they'll want to try being in love with me too! šŸ˜„

I remember napping with a few people. In college. Always late afternoon sun streaming in. On a futon. Why is that!? Lovely memories for me. Iā€™m not thinking about the painful endings , rather the fun and unexpected beginnings.
