Boyfriend is experiencing limerence for someone else. We’ve only been together a year.
We’re in our late 20s, and have been together for roughly a year. I overheard him talking on the phone, and brought it up. “Limerence” was the word he used, and he feels it toward a woman he literally never spoke to.
I’ve been reading through this sub, trying to wrap my head around this. I thought we had great relationship, but holy fuck, if he’s yearning over a stranger/has gotten bored of me this quickly, how could we make it long term? This feels like evidence that our relationship isn’t fulfilling for him. I don’t know what to do, but I’m really quite sad.
You guys understand limerence better than I do. Do you think this is a sign that our relationship has gone stale?
