DOCUMENTARY ON LOVE ADDICTION

We are looking for people in NYC, LA or Denver who would like to participate in a documentary on love addiction.

If you are addicted to love, love becomes more of a struggle than something great and joyful.

Love addiction can rule your life in a destructive way. As someone addicted to love, you ignore your own boundaries and needs, and your attempts to loving someone are seldom returned. Love addiction can lead to obsessive thinking, anxiety, despair and loneliness.

With this film we would like to tell the world around us more about love addiction and help people understand. We hope you would like to help with your insights and experiences. There are many types and stages of love addiction, and we are interested in hearing about any one of them.

We will be in the US in November and December 2009.

Can you list a few of the types? I am baffled by your explanation. Is this an unnatural attraction to anyone who shows a bit of attention, even if you are already in a relationship or attracted to one in particular and just can't let go no matter what.

We are all addicted to some degree since it is an integral part of our lives, to some, an almost necessary part. We strive to find a partner and if it gets late, often accept whatever comes along rather than continuing to wait for the right one. That isn't addiction as much as a fatalistic view.

Can love be really categorised? According to me, there are two main kinds-- 1: love with sexual interest (the popular 'love') & 2:love without the former trait (love subjected to a person or thing).

Mother to daughter love flows downwards for what, a newborn starts loving her mother back after a certain age, achieving maturity to understand it. Friendship is also a kind of love. Is it not? Actually its the best relationship in the world. No love can harm.

Infatuation is probably a better term for what you're looking for. Let's not take the name of Love in vain.

I tend to agree. There are so many who find it hard to distinguish between the two.

I think the ultimate test would be to ask yourself the question:

Would you be happy to spend the rest of your life living with, even sleeping in the same bed with that person but never have love with them?

Answering no would most probably indicate infatuation.

Ultimately, there will come a time when you'll live together more as friends with no love due to age. If you couldn't handle that, you definitely don't love them.

I beg your pardon?

What is love then? You speak like you could actually describe it.

Oh, wait... Again, Love is so overrated, chemically no different than eating large (very large I must add) quantities of chocolate. However that is not the point. The point is domination over another human being comes with it. If there's none, you can eat chocolate til you cut yer wrists and choco comes out. LOL There's no such thing.

Y'all think you're so smart with uh infatuation and such.

I'm tellin y'all one thing, I AM THE QUEEN and here is my word: LOVE IS NOTHING SPECIAL. NOTHING more than domination over another human being, endorphines and dopamine. CLEAR ENOUGH?

And y'all won't understand what I'm saying and will try and argue with me. Am I? Am I? Am I right? Razz

Wella... Love addiction is extremely real and complex unfortunately, and if I wouldn't be such a lazy bugger, I'd write some more on it, because I know some very interesting things (probably not the first or last one to know them naturally).

Anyway, what am I doing on this topic. I gotta run. Yes. Razz

I've been in love before, had infactuations too! One is a lovely woozy slushy feeling where you throw common sense to the wind!! like give her your very last rolo!!! and the other is painful and counter productive beating a dead horse and you would sit for hours thinking about her eating and enjoying your last rolo............. before eating it youself
