I've met a couple of men over the years where I've experienced what I can only describe as like lightning... You feel a strange mix of nervous excitement around them, butterflies, the atmosphere sizzles. They're constantly in your head, drawn to them like a magnet, day dream about them etc. This current one I have actually dreamed about!
It's strange because in both my experiences they've never been what I've found typically attractive looks wise in a man, but in both cases it's been the way they talk, their voice, even the way they walk and facial expressions. Neither time has anything ever come of it, and this latest one I work with (not closely but same office and we don't really have a reason to speak about much, never had any nights out together etc) so I doubt anything would ever come of it- although I do know he's divorced and single.
My most recent and longest term partner, we had a great relationship but there was never that instant spark, it was more that we got on really well, were attracted to each other and kind of grew to care for each other. This other man makes me genuinely weak at the knees, I've caught him looking up when I enter the room and often wonder if he feels even a tiny bit the same!
So my question... has anyone ever felt this unexplainable overpowering attraction to someone, and if so, did you pursue it and was it anything like you imagined it to be? Did you go the distance?
I hear many people say that it was never like this with the one they ended up with- it was tamer, calmer, steady.. and I wonder if it ever works with the lightning bolt?
