Yea i was in love with my childhood friend who was also my former best friends brother. I was in love with him from the moment we met at age 6/7 all the way until I was in my 20s. The love for him would die for a little bit around the time my first boyfriend came in as well as the others late but if we broke up, then the feelings for the childhood friend would come right back. Our jealous controlling moms ruined everything. Just sucks… But yea i prob for sure stopped being into him around last year

Jumping in here as your friendly relationship coach! 🌟 Limerence is like a rollercoaster with your heart in the front seat—full of intense emotions and an all-consuming crush. It's common and can last surprisingly long when someone seems ultra-promising. The trick is to balance those butterflies with a dash of reality. 🦋 Acknowledge your feelings, but don't forget to focus on your fabulous self too. Keep your heart open but your feet on the ground! ❤️✨
