Ajax Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Poll: How many of us have fallen in love with someone who's certifiably crazy? And is there something about crazy people that make us fall for them? My two cents: I've dated two women who probably have a psycological disorder. I'm not a doctor, but at some point you can tell. Both of these relationships were intense, and I was absolutely head over heals. Sometimes I think crazy people are more passionate than healthy people, and thus "hook" us fast.
blueline Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 I would say they're better manipulators because they're more intune with a bunch of psychological factors we never notice because we're sane.

Fouts Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Crazy people are just crazy. Perhaps they're less inhibited than an average person, which of course can lead to better sex in the beginning. But eventually even the shy one's usually catch up with letting go of their inhibitions, so no need to get hungup on a crazy person.
Woggle Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 I used to think so but they are not. Take it from a man who has been there. The crazier my ex got the worse she became in bed.
blueline Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Yeah, I don't think they are better lovers, honestly. You have to consistently treat them as if they're going to be abandoned tomorrow in order to get them to really get into it. The more committed you get (this typically coincides with them getting more and more neurotic), the worse and worse the sex gets.
PegNosePete Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 The more committed you get (this typically coincides with them getting more and more neurotic), the worse and worse the sex gets. Yep thats true.
ohno89 Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Hmm.. I don't know how subjective this is to just "crazy people" - you can probably fall heads over heels for someone and have a really intense R with someone completely normal...however, having said that, my last R was very passionate, very intense and yes, I do think my ex possibly had something off going on in his head, as did he at times...... okay it's now just made me feel a little sick again thinking of him now having a similar R with his new g/f who he cheated on me with!
Cee Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 From the female perspective, I would say no as far as guys are concerned. The best male lovers I had were pretty stable. I only was with two who had clinical disorders. One had Aspberger's, but he was the opposite of the stereotypical "crazy chick." He was cerebral and unemotional, but skilled and experienced. Another was depressed and his outward demeanor was quiet and shy yet he was fierce in the bedroom. I think the OP is talking about " emotional intensity" instead of craziness. I think some people like intense emotions with sex. Not me. I like good technique mixed with passion. But maybe it's different for men and women.
wendigo Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Well this has got me thinking.... am I crazy? I am intense and love intensity. I don't want intensity ALL the time tho. I don't like arguing but my past realtionships I have had a lot of these - but is this me? or them? or the combination? I don't stand there arguing with myself? I think an unhealthy relationship can lead to intensity - meaning the best and worst of things.
DustySaltus Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Sure, they make make for more intense relationships. But if I gave you a million dollars one day and told you that somewhere down the line you would go completely broke, I just couldn't tell you when...would you still want it?
leftfield Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Sure, they make make for more intense relationships. But if I gave you a million dollars one day and told you that somewhere down the line you would go completely broke, I just couldn't tell you when...would you still want it? I'm completely broke now (well almost), so yeah I'll take the million dollars and hang on for the ride. If anyone wants me, you can find me sleeping behind the blackjack tables in the Bellagio. Selah. (It's just occurred to me, maybe I'm the crazy person?!)
nobmagnet Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Im thinking that people that constantly challenge our emotions do make an intence passionate relationship. IMO, be it a man /woman that beats you up or someone that blows hot and cold, we get an artifical "high" (it doesnt hurt anymore) I recon its like banging you head repeatedly in a door......................when it stops the relief is overwhelming therefore artifically happy if you get me?? so my answer is yes the "appear" to be better lovers but that is because they are not at that point, hurting us. :love:nobby xx
You Go Girl Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Sure, they make make for more intense relationships. But if I gave you a million dollars one day and told you that somewhere down the line you would go completely broke, I just couldn't tell you when...would you still want it? This had my fried rice spit all over my keyboard! haha...like a moth to the flame for most people. I don't think drama queens make better lovers though. Quiet types, cool, calm, and collected make better lovers...now that's intense.
Feelin Frisky Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 The craziest one I ever had any lasting relationship with was the most sexually robust. She could cum at will. But she was not the most attentive. She could really go the distance in a weekend love fest but there were times where she dropped the ball in the same way which made my fulfillment have unfortunate asterisks. The less crazy seemed to learn lessons and try harder although they were basically less sexually ready. I would never choose someone I knew to be nuts. My realization came after the fact.
Banega100 Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 With hyperactivity and depression being mainstay for myself, i can safely say that while i did drive my ex wild, i did ultimately drive her away. So maybe there's some truth in that, although i don't believe i'm especially crazy.
