Newcomer, totally knocked out too, with a question : will the craving for a sequel to this story ever go away?

EDIT : Not that I don't want a longer story, but I want my productivity back :)

8) Well, a typical case of the virus! The diagnosis is clear. In order to predict the strength and length of the infection, the doctor needs more details. In standard cases, productivity (other than to surf the net collecting material on Fucking Åmål) returns after two weeks approximately.
(And do you really wanna be cured? :wink: )

More details ... hmmm, watched the movie in Sweden last monday, and since my return to Belgium, I have spent most of my free time reading the sparse FA fanfics I can find and watching the few FA movies on YouTube (over and over again ).

And if cured means losing interest in FA, I don't want to be cured. Cured means being able to spent some time not wishing to be 14 again and sitting on a school bench behind Agnes :P

:lol: I see... that's the hard addictive phase you're in. Relax and enjoy. Nothing you can do about it. You might try to inject higher doses in order to desensitize yourself. At first, this may make things even worse, but in the end it could speed up your regeneration. Try this if you like, it's much besser than youtube (it's all for download):

Also try this page (scroll down unto the "Närkontakt" section and download the files, this is really special):

It's good to know I'm not alone in being completely weird. I just saw it again this weekend for the 3rd time, and it's completely wrecked me all over again!

Yes, Rebecka Liljeberg has a lot to do with it. :roll:

Glad it's not just me, mind! :lol:

Six years. Yeah, I know, I'm a lightweight compared to some of you guys. :lol:

I'm not leaving it as long next time. Mind you, considering what it's done to me this week, maybe I should! :roll: :lol:

Yeah, maybe you are just wiser than some of us... I'm impressed by your will power, too :) . In that year when I was really badly smitten, I couldn't have refrained from watching it. I needed it like a drug, again and again.

It's partly because I'm afraid of spoiling it by watching it too much, I guess. You can spoil (at least temporarily) even the most wonderful thing by overdoing it. On the other hand, you can leave it too long, as well...

It is very strange, though. It is a week since I saw it again, and I am stll thinking it constantly. Everything else I've watched this week seems superificial in comparison. And I am essentially replaying it in my head every minute. There is something very special about this movie, more than just the fact that Rebecka Liljeberg is a goddess walking among us :wink: . It's universal. As that wonderful essay I am currently reading "What it's all about", it's about the need to be loved, to be RECOGNISED.

It's made me feel very... unsettled, almost, all week. But I'm not sure I want that feeling to go away.

That was a long, rambling post, sorry... :lol:
