Chat, is it creepy to have a totally unjustified crush
I'm not sure I should start this conversation and I've been rewriting this a lot lol. But I could use some relating and opinions from fellow internet leftists

its one of those uncommon things that is common enough that you might know someone who has experienced it to a pathological or harmful manner but also you are just as likely as to not
i know of someone who destroyed their partnership over limerence and the other person never ever really returned the sentiment but they could not stop obsessing over this person and it got kinda stalkerish and they ended up in counseling it was a mess
