How do you know you are in love?

Answer 1

Well, the hardest question is how do you know when you're in love, and the "in love" concept is the trickiest. Realize this. People think that just because they're in love that its gonna stay that way forever, and when it changes they feel betrayed by themselves and sometimes the person that they were in love with.

Being "in love" often means that you are letting yourself feel very good about this person and who they are. You want to be with them romantically, physically and you want to be there for them in anyway possible. You think about them a lot and you mindfully integrate them in almost every part of your life. You tell yourself that you will accept them for who they are and that it can only get better. This is the state of "being in love" .

Where the "love" comes from is another story. It's deeper than "he makes me laugh, he thinks I'm special and he's cute and a great guy". Who you fall in love with, and why you fall in love in the first place does come straight from the subconscious.

For instance, I was with this guy I totally knew I loved from his head to his toe and I loved his mind the way he made me feel and that we were almost best friends in a sense. And the fact that he was gorgeous didn't hurt the way I felt. I was in love.

But when it ended, and when I figured out that I shouldn't have been in love, I realized that I chose to love him because I was lonely and I just wanted him to love me back. I was living for him. I was living in him.

You know in a relationship that you're supposed to be really interested in him and ask questions and try to figure out if you still want him to be in your life? well he charmed me on the first day we met and I didn't need to know more except that I wanted to love him. Not because he's got serious mojo going on, but because I just wanted to be in love. I wasn't really ready.

He on the other hand was a bit more selective, and he wanted someone who was in love with herself as much as she was in love with him. I didn't know myself, so how could I be in love with me? I was busy admiring him and being in love with him. I lost myself in him, so he got lost, end of story.

So people fall in love for deeper reasons than appear, and that's a given. If you don't want to get hurt and feel betrayed later, in the middle of the "in love" stage, you should think about what really made you fall in love in the first place. That way if you feel its something "negative" (I use the term loosely) in the least way on your part you can try to change it and still see if you're in love with the person you want to be with, and you can try to keep the love there before you realize that you're making a mistake....

Well enough of that. I don't even know if you agree with all of that but.... it seems like one of your requirements for making love is to be in love.

Love is a funny feeling and there is no correct answer for this. It is very subjective and one can only feel for it. It is a longing desire to be with someone, to care for someone, to want to know of every move the someone is going to do and all this is done unconditionally. When you are in love you see beauty in everything a person does. Nothing the person do will annoy you. The best way to see this kinda of love is a mother's love for her baby.

When you feel restless, want to sit down when u r standing, want to lie down when u r sitting, wish to stand up when u r lieing. Frequent thoughts of that person, the time seems so long, feel no hunger or thirst...the world looks so busy and u feel suddenly alone...is when u r in love. And once u discover this feeling, u'll get to see the beauty of the world....as an eternal smile dawns on ur face.

Answer 4

When the only person you want to be with is that person you're in love with. You think he's good-looking and just can't stop thinking and/or staring at him. You may dream of him. You may daydream about him. If he asked you to be his, you'd say "yes" immediately. Something like that. It's a warm, human feeling.

You'll KNOW. It's when you feel it inside. If you've ever been heart broken and you get that feeling in your chest. You know it's not a physical feeling but it's there and you know it's heartbreak. You'll get a more pleasurable one in your chest when you're in love and think of the person. You'll feel a burning need to be with them.

Answer 9

ones feeling and definition of love can sometimes be misleading and confusing. try asking yourself this question" how can i posibly fall in love with this person?" then list all the negative things, the yuckiest thing you could ever see to this person. analyze it and be true to yourself. if you can honestly say that you can take all those things etternally, then you're in love.
