you'll know if its really love when every bit of selfish motives are absent. what i mean is... you have to try to examine yourself first for your motives. what do you really want from this guy? why do you really want to have a relationship with him? is it because of good sex? is it because he makes you look good in front of other people? is it so that you can have someone to talk to and confide your problems with? is it only because of the companionship? is it because of the gifts he gives? or is it because you just want someone to love you? and the list goes on. you see, if your honest reasons or motives are written here...then all you have are selfish reasons to be in a relationship and this is NOT LOVE. it is because TRUE LOVE just seeks to GIVE and it never asks for something in return. it doesnt matter if it is not reciprocated, it loves anyway. true love does not ask, it doesnt have its own way.
Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. (taken from the Bible, 1 Corinthians 13:4-7)
if what you feel isnt all this, then it is anything but love. and lastly...ONLY GOD can ever make you feel true love. wait for the RIGHT MAN for you. he'll come and then all your wait will be worth it. trust me--i know.

First of all it is a stage of love...You can't truly love somone unless you know them almost as well as you know yourself..So usually its a physical or time spent attraction that brings 2 people together...We usually marry a mate before we truely know them and everyone pays in the end. Ask yourself 1 question..do you believe this person you think you love or that you think loves you...Would this person get in front of a bullet for you ...Or risk their life if you were in danger or help you know matter what!! Now thats Love!!!

When u see butterflies wandering around you, the moon smiling at you and the stars shining bright above. When u feel ur love in the freshness of ur breath. When u feel ur love in every one of ur heartbeat. When u feel that time has stopped when ur love is not around.
When you want to listen to just ur heart.
............When u discover that there is nothing as beautiful as this feeling, in the whole world.

To be honest, I dont think anyone really know this answer of the back...your gonna have to give it some time, follow your true emotions, and go with that.
