Is your partner limerent for somebody else? Do they want to leave you to be with their Other?
In this video, I share with you the 4 biggest reasons why a limerent affair almost never works out.
I know you think you are the exception, that it will work out, maybe, but it will most likely not.
If you are the one having the affair, Disclaimer or "Trigger Warning," this will not be something you want to hear. And yet, as a studied caution, it's probably something good for you to hear. Here is how limerent affairs, in the majority of the cases, come to an end.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let me give you some hope y'all! Don't worry about the other person anymore. Trust me you will regret hoping wishing and begging your partner. Move on and live your life! You will survive and life will be great! Who cares if they are in love or limerance. Your to important to sit and wait around for someone!

It doesn't matter if it works out or not because the devaluation & discard was so traumatic it made me physically sick. A year later I've gained back some of the weight I lost and am looking forward to the coming of spring alone... after 30 years together. I'm gonna be OK.♥️ You're right about the memories, he doesn't remember anything good.

I recently offered him to move back in again & work on our marriage or divorce... & he is choosing divorce... he says he can't get over his resentment & anger he has towards me... i'm so sad... he wants to ask for more time but I told him I can't wait anymore if he won't even move back in and try... I'm filing to take some control of my life back & plan a life for my 2 young children. I don't know what to do other than file for an offical seperation... Is there anything I can do?

Looking back, when my wife was in a limerent affair with a coworker she was absolutely miserable, I'm a great guy & it turns out about 1000 times better looking than her affair partner. I don't know what the heck she was thinking, but when I found out I moved out for about 3 years & the Simp that she was limerent with dumped her soon after her & the kids were his full time. Responsibility is the last thing a Simp wants.

What cause your wife to want to be in an affair with a coworker?. Was there passion in your marriage or was it all responsibility protect and provide? Being attracted to somebody is not simply based on what they look like. At the same time, if husbands don't know what makes their woman happy emotionally, what arouses her. What makes her want to be in limerence with them then they're going to lose out too.

I appreciate this so much. Also, something you said there was that feeling sorry for someone is the opposite of attraction and YES - that’s why I forced myself to not beg or cry or tell him how hopeless he left me. Now - 2 years later - he asked for all of his belongings back because him and his new partner are having troubles and he wants to sell his things. Unfortunately I burnt and destroyed everything after holding onto it for a whole year for him, while they flaunted their amazing life on social media. I did not respond to his texts. He left me and cut me off completely while being with someone else for a year behind my back. Know your worth - even when you’re in so much pain. Know that there needs to be balance in this world, and they will feel what you felt. You don’t want them back - you want balance, and that will happen mostly without you seeing it. Sending you love and healing. Thank you Fenna for your amazing content. ❤

i feel like it’s important to mention that limerence in my experience has been ocd, so exposure to the rejection is the only way forward and has stopped the limerence in my case. it’s about ripping off the bandaid using ERP (exposure response therapy) and just feeling the hurt once and for all and the limerence that is just emotions that you are avoiding then goes away! i hope this helps someone as i wish someone had told me this earlier! thank you for your videos ❤️

Yes. Exactly. She thought I'd be fine with her and her guy although she initiated our divorce with anger. She rushed a divorce with me to get married to him. Very true, they think of every bad thing you've done and nothing is good in their eyes even if you have been the most loving supportive person in the past. They just can't see it. The more you try to get them back the harder they push against you because you are getting in the way. And will fight every step to justify themselves. It's painful to hear "I don't love you". So it works out that me, this happy go lucky limerant is seeing his ex wife in limerance whilst being limerant about the loss. I'm waiting with eager anticipation to hear that great big crash....and it will come. I'm now getting on with life yet still keeping a door open just in case.

Your story mirrors mine. My disadvantage was i didn't know what limerence was during the time my wife was cheating on me. Had i known i would of been on better footing while dealing with this shock and trauma of the situation. I was very close to giving up and filing for divorce. The stages of limerence played out and i was the one left in a position of power. She wanted to come home and i allowed it with conditions and my conditions were met. Sorry you went through the same pain as me.

Thank you for this video! It was very insightful. I discovered that my wife was in the early stages of an affair towards the end of last year. I made a lot of bad decisions and played the pick me dance afterwards that only pushed her away. I'm now on anti-depressants and able to cope better with the situation. She said she was willing to rebuild our relationship and marriage, but she did not stop contact with the AP. She said that after discovery they said they took things too far and that they would just be friends supporting each other (the AP is going through a divorce). But that was most likely a lie. We're at a stalemate now living under the same roof as if we're roommates. She says she needs space now. So I am working on myself and taking it day by day. It's not easy right now, but I am trying to have faith. What you said about the state of mind of the wayward spouse only thinking of the negative aspects of the past is so right. As Dr. Gottman calls it, negative sentiment override. My wife is deep in NSO right now.

Thank you. Its helpful to understand what my spouse does with an earlier friend of mine. They knew each other for over 10 years, but the Limerence Episode between them began last year in may. In Moment my spouse is a other Person. She sacrificed her whole value and beliefsystem to be with the LO. Yes we had no good marriage because of me. But i changed a lot and working on my pies. So i have hope that this crazy Episode is over, she will come back. And in the beginning of their relationship she Said Things to me Like: I cannot let you go. Please fight For me.... But he always pulled her back. I can understand that the emotions are so overwhelming, that she cannot handle this in this phase. So i try to be the safe place and working on me till she found back to herself.🙏❤️

My wife carried on an affair for several years before I discovered it. I'm actually attractive, we have a beautiful little boy, we live a debt free life on a body of water and I am NOT abusive, a drinker, a drug addict or neglectful. She chose a man 10 years older than us that looks 20 years older than us. I asked her why, she said "he cared". I asked her what her plan was, if she was at some point going to tell me and leave. She said "I was waiting for you to die". I'm an insulin dependant diabetic, she was buying me a pint of ben & jerry's ice cream every day. She has lost her friggen mind. I have not handled all this well at all. Many regrettable things were said. I am struggling to not lash out verbally. I have changed the locks to our cute lake home and now she's staying with her mother in a shitty trailer and continuing see the man who cared for her so much he helped destroy her perfect life.

Please MORE videos like this for what the spouse should do is needed. 💔💯😊👍 As I've said before- my husband cheated on me with his co-worker last September & i found out end of October. I was 3 months pregnant with our 2nd child. We are seperated (not offically yet) we went to therapy for abit but then he stopped going. Im going to go to a new therapist this week that uses the Gottman therapy (he probably won't go) He has left me with our 2 month old & our 2 year old. He hardly has anything to do with them. He has started talking about divorce... i woukd rather seperate for awhile instead of just jump into divorce. But im so sad as he says he cares for me but is not in love with me. He says its the "family I wanted" 😞 we had planned to have children. Now hes living like a selfish bachelor & sees our children on and off and does not want to come home. Im sure he is still carrying on with the affair as he acts very cold & mean towards me. I tell him i dont want a legal seperation ... i tell him i love him and dont want to divorce as we have been together 11 years... but nothing gets through to him... hes infatuated & i now mean nothing to him... its as if all we had he views as horrible. He says he was misriable for all of the 11 years we were together??? Its been almost 1 year since the affair started... i want to keep fighting but i feel pretty hopeless... All i can do is file for a legal seperation to protect myself & my girls. Oh & he is HIGHLY emotional... I can't say anything without him being mean or frustrated at me.

@self-compassionchannel-fenna I added some more to my comment. Would you recommend a legal seperation if after nearly 1 year there seems to be no getting through to him? I hope he will come to therapy again but he may not. 😞

If I was you I would file for divorce if he was unhappy all those years because you cannot really force him to love yoy.

But I don't think he was. We were very happy! That's why this doesn't make any sense. I think it's the limerence & him rewriting history.

My husband of 14 years went into a limerent relationship. He and I are now divorced. The one he left me for he has cheated on her and has left her to marry the new woman He was cheating with. The woman he left me for was in shock and in a lot of pain.

Can a person be in limerence for the second time ?
@followyourpassion8378

​@@followingfenna yes, for the same person. That would be interesting to know. So the scenario would be: Limerence wore off, rational thinking even kicks back in, but there is still a basic attraction. Can limerence kick in a second time if contact with the affair isn't cut off completely?

Ik heb wel een vraag , hoe ga je om met je partner die niet verteld dat hij bij zijn affaire partner wil zijn . Dus en hij liegt en hij voelt zich slachtoffer terwijl ik met de pijn zit. Wat kun je doen?

Heel goed voor jezelf proberen te zorgen. Try to take care of yourself as much as possible, and know that crystallisation is a part of limerence, does not mean their ideas are true.

I really hope this is correct. My ex let me for someone else the very same day she broke up with me. She moved in with him hours away from our town. Now they are engaged. So this was 7 months ago. They are still together. I had seven years. But anyway she went straight into that relationship without looking back. So this Limerance thing isn’t always correct
