If you agree with 7 of the following 9 statements you are probably in love.
1. You know, because you have been told by your significant other, that your deep feelings are returned in kind.
2. The object of your affections makes you feel special and good about yourself.
3. If/when you feel jealous it is always fleeting; you trust your partner not to betray you or hurt your relationship.
4. Nothing makes you feel as serene as when you and your partner are together.
5. When you fight with your partner you usually make up within a few hours and you always agree that nothing is more important than you both being able to express your true feelings (even if they sometimes cause conflict).
6. Your partner never asks you to choose between him/her and your loyalties to your family and friends - if you do choose him/her over them you always have a good reason and it is always YOUR decision, and your decision alone.
7. Neither you or your partner feel the need to test the other's loyalties or feelings.
8. You are more yourself when with your partner than you are with anybody else.
9. If sex is part of your relationship it is by mutual desire and agreement without the slightest hint of commitment testing or persuasion.

The important thing to have the ability to distinguish between love and lust.
You must look at them from across the room and say to yourself "Would I truly, honestly, without regret, enjoy being financially ruined by that person?"
If you say "Yes", then it's love.

When you don't have to ask "when I can realize that I am in love". You'll know when you're in love. It'll come from your gut.

When you fall in love you'll know yourself. No one can tell you the actual time, because love doesn't run to a timetable.
