Description
Have you ever experienced an intense, overwhelming feeling of love at first sight, only to later find yourself completely trapped? 🚩
In this clip, Ross Rosenberg breaks down the concept of limerence—a term coined by psychologist Dorothy Tennov to describe the initial, obsessive stage of falling in love. While normal limerence is a biological part of being human that typically lasts a few months, the version experienced between a person with Self-Love Deficit Disorder (SLD) and a narcissist is dangerously magnified. Ross describes it as "limerence on crack"—an overwhelming deliverance from deep, searing loneliness to ecstatic joy.
This explosive chemistry tricks you into believing you have found your absolute perfect match, when in reality, as Ross's father wisely noted, the soulmate has unknowingly met their cellmate. Luke Storey shares a crucial piece of advice: when you feel that irresistible, tingly pull toward someone, don't ask for their number—run. Recognizing this artificial high as a trauma response rather than true love is essential for breaking the Human Magnet Syndrome.
