What a great analogy! Thank you so much! And I agree, limerence is a really neat concept that I think we can all relate to.

Eve, without intending to be too flip, this verse and your sultry heat in the reading truly lit me on fire!!! I knew Icarus as a tragic example of overreaching compulsive behavior! You have turned it into a loving worship and adoration, born of the desire to recreate that miraculous combustion between two who perfectly become one!

Thank you! I thought it was an apt comparison! Overreaching and compulsive behavior can definitely feature heavily in infatuation!

Limerance! I never knew there was a word for this!
And you capture it so well! That tiny flutter in your voice...like the most subtle giddiness! To enrapture a woman and make her feel like this, it's so dreamy!
But that bittersweetness! What a rollercoaster in less than 2 minutes! But just like a rollercoaster, you want to get back on right after it ends... ♥♥♥!
