For those who thought they'd never be as attracted to anyone else again...

I guess I'm just seeking some reassurance that it's possible to experience intense attraction again to a person aside from your LO. I mean, maybe attraction this intense isn't a good thing, I'm not sure lol. It's like this person just became my type overnight to the point where now no one else even feels like my type. My type is just "LO" lol. It seems almost like a waste that my LO is perfectly my type and I'll probably never even get a chance to shoot my shot with them. But sorry, I digress. If anyone has an experience of being this attracted to someone then moving on from it where you could experience intense attraction to another person and even have a rewarding relationship with them, I'd be curious to hear.

I think this is the right forum...

I might delete this post later, depending on my level of shame lol. I'm so sorry if this is triggering for people, I just need to vent.

Well, it seems it's happened to me: almost overnight I've become completely obsessed and infatuated with one person (someone I've only seen online, doesn't know I exist, and likely never will). I'm aware it's not love, it's purely based on sexual attraction and a desire to be desired by them.

I've had very strong crushes before, and even experienced limerence on rare occasion, but this is like nothing I've ever experienced. It's not just the all-consuming thoughts and fantasies about them and yearning to be noticed by them. More disturbing is how I find my LO to be the most sexually attractive person I've ever seen and they make even other very attractive people seem lackluster by comparison. This person is just so my type, pushes buttons in ways I couldn't have even imagined, and I feel like I'll never be as attracted to anyone ever again. Hopefully the novelty of this infatuation will wear off soon and maybe it's not even genuine limerence.

Of course I fantasize about meeting them and various scenarios unfolding. But I also wish I could interact with them just to be able to see their flaws, find them less desirable, and kill the fantasy.
