How every time someone has a sexual experience, their old sexual experiences are evoked, linking them to an infinite network of human connections, Jenny writing, The L Word

“She tried to kill herself, you know,” Bette
“Marina?” Tim
“Yeah, she drove her car off the PH expressway or something...I mean I understand if you don’t have any sympathy, you know?” Bette

I was crying when I met you, now I’m trying to forget you, do what you do, and leave me, I was cryin’ just to get you, now I’m dyin’ ‘cause I let ya, do what you do, and leave me-Cryin’, Aerosmith

“I know you probably don’t want to see me right now, and I’ve stayed away because I wanted to be sure that I can do what you ask of me, so I ended it. I’m never going to talk to her again, I’m never going to think about her again. It’s totally and completely over,” Bette, The L Word

Because I finally felt something, and now it feels like my heart’s been completely ripped out! I had this crazy idea that you and I could be together,” Shane
“It was a delusion,” Cherie
“Well then I’m delusional,” Shane
“What if we could be together, what if being with you made me feel more alive than I have in the last twenty years of my life, what if that were true? Do you think I’d give up my home, my daughter, my black-tie galas, my houses in Bel-Air and east Hampton, my trips to Paris...my black tie galas...to go live in some rank little love nest with a twenty-five year old assistant hair-dresser, who barely has her foot in the door. In this ugly world, love like that doesn’t exist,” Cherie

And they’re watching me, you know like I’m this sort of amusement, like this little play thing, and meanwhile back at the ranch, my boy, no I’m sorry, my husband…my...my life... my life is completely ruined, you know, she managed to fucking destroy my relationship while leaving hers completely intact,” Jenny, The L Word

The thing she does, am I crazy, am I drunk, am I hallucinating? And I was thinking, am I crazy, am I drunk, am I hallucinating? And then she does it. The thing, that would go on to confuse me and fuck with all things stable in my life, and then I’m walking out the door and I’m thinking, oh my gawd, I have just had the best...fucking...sex in my whole fucking life man. Nonono, you guys, I’m serious, this is probably the best sex that anybody can have on the whole planet earth. And then she does this thing, no come here, I’m gonna show you, okay...Jenny...I hope this doesn’t make it worse, but I think I could fall in love with you,” Jenny, imitated Marina’s accent

Re: Media Quotes That Really Exemplify Limerence/Addiction/Dysfunction

Post by NickMarone »

“There are several quintessential moments in a man's life: losing his virginity, getting married, becoming a father, and having the right girl smile at you.”--Kirby Keger (St.Elmo's Fire)

Another SEF:
Kevin Dolenz: "Quick. What's the meaning of life"?
Kirby Keger: "Dale Bieberman".

Actually, SEF has two of the most vivid portrayals of limerence that I've seen. One is Emelio Estevez' (Kirby Keger) obsessions with Andie McDowell's character (Dale Bieberman) after just one broken date two years before plus a nano second chance meeting in a hospital. That's all it took for Kirby to fall head over heels in love.

The other is Kevin's (Andrew McCarthy) years long hidden limerence for his best friend's (Judd Nelson) live-in girlfriend Leslie (Ally Sheedy).

Kevin Dolenz: "Well, you're all I think about."
Leslie Hunter: "Me"?
Kevin Dolenz: "And I think the reason I'm not interested in other women, and why I haven't had sex in so long, is because I'm desperately, completely in love with you.”

Very classic limerence going on. You can kind of tell I'm a child of the 80's,

Nick
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame, but I think it's my own damn fault.

There is this song by Natalie Imbruglia „Torn” that could somehow describe the feeling when limerence starts to fade away and you’re starting to think more rationally about the situation

„I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn”

I think this one defines limerances perfectly, it's kind of the Mother of them All: "Just My Imagination" by the Temptations, especially the part where he sings "but in reality, she doesn't even know me". Ouch!
******

Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by
I say to myself, "You're such a lucky guy"
To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true
Out of all the fellows in the world, she belongs to you

But it was just my imagination
Runnin' away with me
It was just my imagination
Runnin' away with me

Ooh (Soon)
Soon we'll be married and raise a family (Oh yeah)
A cozy little home out in the country
With two children, maybe three
I tell you I (I, I) can visualize it all
This couldn't be a dream, for too real it all seems

But it was just my imagination, once again
Runnin' away with me
Tell you, it was just my imagination
Runnin' away with me

Ev'ry night on my knees I pray
"Dear Lord, hear my plea
Don't ever let another take her love from me"
Or I will surely die, hmm
(Her love is) heavenly
When her arms enfold me
I hear a tender rhapsody
But in reality
She doesn't even know me

(Just my imagination) Once again
Runnin' away with me, oh
Tell you it was just my imagination
Runnin' away with me

I've never met her but I can't forget her
(Just my imagination) Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Runnin' away with me, ooh
Just my imagination
Runnin' away with me

She's never hard to find (Just my imagination)
She's always on my mind (Runnin' away with me)

“Yeah. She travels for six months out of the year. She was doing a ballet in Rome, and then she was in Budapest,” Marina
“What’s her last name,” Jenny
“Wolff, with two ffs,” Marina
“Who are you???” Jenny
“Someone who cares about you very much. I’ve opened up your world. You’ll find that your life is richer, more interesting,” Marina
“Fuck you…” Jenny

“So what does he do?” Annette, The L Word
“Owns a cafe,” Jenny
“That’s cool. Is he smart, is he funny?” Annette
“I don’t know,” Jenny
“Is he hot?” Annette
“Marina is definitely hot,” Jenny
“Marina! Oh my gawd, oh wow! Dude that is the one thing I’ve never done!” Annette

“Jenny, were you always a lesbian?” Annette
“I’m not a lesbian,” Jenny
“So what, this came up and just bit you in the ass?” Annette
“I think I might be bisexual,” Jenny
“Oh puhleeze,” Annette
“No, really,” Jenny
“Jenny, is this just your way of trying to tell me you had a huge crush on me in college?” Annette
“Annette…? Nooo!” Jenny
“You’re lying, you know you had the hots for me,” Annette

“No, I didn’t do this for the experience,” Jenny, The L Word
“Jenny...oh my gawd. She broke your heart!” Annette

"If it's a wedding present for him, then I'd keep it between you two, but you're much more complex than that. You do your best work when you lay bare all of your remarkable emotions," Nick to Jenny, The L Word

"So he says do you love me and she says no, but that's a real nice ski mask!" Lloyd fantasizing about impressing Mary and friends, Dumb And Dumber

“Well all I know is, I got to get a look at this Marina chick, figure out if she’s worth it,” Annette
“No,” Jenny
“Yes,” Annette
“No,” Jenny
“Come on, you gotta fight for what you want, if you fight, you gotta come out guns blazing,” Annette
“But her girlfriend’s back in town,” Jenny
“Her girlfriend?” Annette
“She told me she had a girlfriend after Tim dumped me,” Jenny
“Wow, does this story just keep getting better?” Annette

"Oh come on, I saw it cross your mind, old times, sneaking up to the cabin with Jennifer!" Jamie to Matt, Indian Summer

“Look at them, they’re in love,” Jenny feferencing Marina and Francesca, The L Word
“Noooo,” Annette
“No, look at ‘em man, there’s love in their eyes. She’s so sophisticated and look at me,” Jenny
“But here’s what I see. Francesca is buying Marina’s affections. You’re way younger, you’re way hotter. I mean why do you think Marina came looking for you in the first place? If we get you all dressed up and take you to Twat…” Annette
“No,” Jenny
“Yes!” Annette
“No more twat, twat gets me into trouble!” Jenny
“Twat The Night...you idiot! We get you all dolled up, we go there, we let Marina see you having fun, and at the very least, you and I get loaded and Marina thinks you got a hot new girlfriend, but if I know what I think I know, old Frannie will get her walking papers by the end of the night,” Annette

"It never ceases to amaze me that people like Costas who have lost so much can still be open to love while I who have lost nothing, am not," Lena, Sisterhood Of The Travelling Pants

“Then she proceeded to seduce her, which wasn’t altogether honorable,” Marina, The L Word
“Honorable isn’t the first word I would use to describe Marina,” Jenny, The L Word
“You sound angry,” Francesca
“No,” Jenny

“A lot of these single women see the workplace as their hunting ground. I think she’s got you in her crosshairs!” Ben, Obsessed

“I don’t know why you’d work so hard to make someone fall in love with you when you obviously don’t give a fuck,” Jenny, The L Word
“I’ve been trying to tell you, but obviously you’re not paying attention. What’s terrible is that you have no idea how much you mean to me…” Marina and Jenny kiss
“I thought it was a little quiet in here. You see the thing about Marina is that when she focuses on you, you feel like the only person that exists. It’s her gift. But maybe you give your gift a little too freely. So tell me about your book, Jenny? Marina says it’s quite good. Something about a demon?” Francesca
“So this is what the two of you do; you make these little conquests and compare notes and make each other jealous,” Jenny, The L Word
“I wouldn’t act so high and mighty, you’re not exactly an innocent bystander,” Francesca

“You’re gonna borrow my car, and give her the test,” Sonny, A Bronx Tale
“What, the Mario test?” C
“Mario’s a fucking loser, why do you listen to this guy? You pick her up in my car. You walk her to the car, you open the door, you close the door for her. And then you see if she unlocks the other door for you. If she doesn’t, she’s a selfish broad, and you dump her,” Sonny
“Dump her? But what about all the nice things you just said, she could be one of the great ones?” C
“Bullshit kid! If she doesn’t lean over and lift up that other lock for you, then she’s a selfish broad and you’re only seeing the tip of the iceberg. You dump her and you dump her fast!” Sonny

“I’m sorry the night turned out like this. But there’s something you need to know. When I’m gone, Marina can do as she wishes, as can I. But when I return, I would like my house just the way I left it. I hope that’s not too much to ask,” Francesca, The L Word

"I'm not here to look after y'all," June, Walk The Line
"You're not?" Johnny
"No. You got somebody to do that for you, John. You got a wife somewhere, you remember that?" June
"Well what if I didn't?" Johnny
"There's too many ifs in that sentence," June
"There's only one! There's only one if in that sentence, June! Well I thought it was a good point. There is only one," Johnny

“I didn’t tell you to book a house. Did you book a house?” Francesca, The L Word
“I just wanted to spend some time together, you’ve been here three months of the year,” Marina
“Come be with me now,” Francesca “Do you want someone to rescue you?”
“Maybe,” Marina
“I already rescued you. Do you have any idea how much money we owe?” Francesca
“A lot,” Marina
“Yeah. Look, I want you to have your pretty lifestyle just as much as you do. But then I have to go to work, don’t I? So I’m going to do a movie. And you can resume your little thing with Jenny. I know you don’t want me. You want Jenny,” Francesca, The L Word

“Jenny has something to say to you,” Tim
“What happened between us was a mistake. It’s not going to happen again. I will never see you again, do you understand?” Jenny
“Did you hear her? Look at me!” Tim
“Yes,” Marina
“You’re really proud of yourself, aren’t you? You know? Tell me something! How long was it all going on?” Tim
“You saw it all. The beginning, the middle, the end,” Marina

"I did," June
"Congratulations, June," Vivian
"Thank you, Vivian," June
"So you think this one will stick? What is this, your second marriage?" Johnny
"John!" Vivian
"Excuse me," June
"John, don't do this to me! John!" Vivian
"So what's going on? Where's your truck driver?" Johnny
"You'll be happy to know things aren't really working out between us," June
"It doesn't make me happy! Well a little it does," Johnny

“Tell me something, Marina. Did you not recognize that your actions were not altogether honorable?” Tim, The L Word
“What are you talking about?” Marina
“When you were sitting at my table pretending to be my friend when all you were trying to do was get into her pants! Answer me!” Tim, grabbing Marina
“What are you trying to prove?” Marina

"All this time, were you just using me to get to Daria?" Jane, Daria

“Why don’t you tell me your secret, huh? What is it you girls do. Does it count?” Tim
“You were there. You saw how it counts,” Marina

"I mean the way you're always accidentally running into Tom," Jane, Daria
"What are you talking about?" Daria
"I know you don't mean anything by it so don't worry about it," Jane

“We saw it at the party, that’s why Tina and I left, we didn’t want to be a part of it...oh my gosh, I’m so sorry…” Bette, The L Word
“How long was it all going on? Why won’t anyone tell me?” Tim
“I think you should ask Jenny that,” Bette
“EVERYBODY ELSE KNEW, I WAS THE ONLY IDIOT WHO DIDN’T KNOW!” Tim
“I have no way of knowing that, Tim. No longer than a month. I just...I wanted to say something but I didn’t know you very well, and sometimes...people kill the messenger,” Bette

"Or that you somehow are screwing my ex!" Archer, Archer
"Keep your voice down," Cyril
"Oh please! You all know about Cyril and Lana right? 'Cause if Pam knows, then everybody knows, because of Pam's huge mouth!" Archer

"Wait, what about your...account? Oh I get it. Classic misdirection!" Cyril

“I got married in Tahoe,” Tim, The L Word
“Where’s your wife?” cop
“In the hotel room…I left her there...I caught her cheating on me yesterday,” Tim
“But you married her. What’s going through your head, son?” cop
“I don’t know,” Tim
“Don’t tell me you’re going back to kill the guy,” cop
“It was a woman,” Tim. Long silence.
“You ever watch porn? You don’t have to answer that, we all do. You know that scene when two women are getting it on...and the guy comes in, he’s all hard up and ready to go, he’s gonna fuck ‘em good! Look closer next time. You see how their eyes glaze over? There’s your sign. They don’t want that. They were having fun before he got there, they were up in there, licking everything, they don’t need him. When you got two people, both have the same equipment, they both know how to use it, how can any person of the opposite sex ever compete with that? That’s why this nation’s homosexuals are so dangerous,” cop

"So you stepping out on me? With my own brother?" Geronimo, Ride
"Uh-uh, uh-uh, come over here. First of all, do not raise your voice at me, second, I'm not with either one of you, and third, where have you been, Geronimo, we've been looking all over for you!" Lita

“I thought you never wanted to see me again,” Marina, The L Word

“Tim did that to you?” Jenny
“Don’t worry, I won’t press charges,” Marina
“Am I just a coward….a liar...a cheater?” Jenny
