In this Premium Submarine exclusive, you’ll hear a preview of my response to a voicemail from a listener who is stumped as to why she continues to fall into the repetitive pattern of falling fast for unavailable partners.
Questions answered + topics discussed in this episode:
✧ What is limerence?
✧ How to tell if your feelings for your romantic interest are infatuation or love
✧ What are the stages of limerence?
✧ How to manage limerent feelings and stop repeating self-sabotaging patterns
✧ Why some people are attracted to more avoidant partners (and why anxious and avoidant people tend to attract one another)
✧ Why do anxiously attached individuals often begin to resent or split on more avoidant partners
✧ How growing up in dysfunctional high-conflict homes can make us more attracted to high-conflict relationships (making safe/kind partners seem “boring”)
