What should I do if I think my guy is limerant for me?
I think he is because he's been emotionally volatile and chaotic recently. Our relationship is very new and the intensity is too strong for me.
I'm empathetic because he reminds me of how I behaved when I was limerant a few years ago. But now I'm on the receiving end of it :(
I feel so bad for my former LO, he did not deserve to be idealized and pressured for reciprocity.
I like this new guy I'm talking to, but I'm scared. I really want emotional stability and someone grounding.
His behavior puts me on edge and like I'm responsible for regulating his emotions. I wasn't feeling well and yet he still kept pressuring me to go over.
I said I didn't want to be pressured and he immediately apologized.
I'm stressed and sad. I like him but his behavior isn't making me feel confident or safe.
I'm thinking about putting him in the friend zone. What should I do? What is the responsible thing to do?
- Please don't tell me his isn't limerant. I'd share screenshots but he uses reddit so I'm scared to. Just assume he is and base your comment on that.
