TishaBuv glad I'm not alone in this. Crazy butterflies meant fear? Is that what you mean? Like there was an element of fear of rejection with those others? Well, that was me.
Yes, actually I've only recently heard of limerance but that describes it perfectly, the favorite person syndrome. Some cases there was a sexual element to it, but I suppose that wasn't the primary part, and definitely wasn't the case with the friends.
