Another definition for the word 'crush'?

I reckon thats almost on a stalker level, rather than just a crush.

Very interesting though, might have to incorporate that word into my vocab today

Quite like wot the word means, but it's not a very emotional sounding word for wot it's trying to describe i.e. i have a great feeling of limerence towards u!! (dont sound right) or have i got the wrong end of the stick?!

I don't think limerence is usually confessed... Crushes are confessed. LImerence isn't. Read the text again. Razz

As for the one who said it's the same thing with crush, it apparently isn't. It's somewhere between obsession and crush and surely not love apparently. And among the terms on which the difference is made belong: Duration, intensity, love and other things.

Me? I said no such thing - I simply asked if it were the same.

For what it's worth, I believe that everybody's emotions are different and to attempt to neatly label such is a hiding to nowhere.

Sounds like somebody is really obsessed with somebody else if you ask me. Now they have a diagnosis for somebody that stalks us.
