I've never been in love so I don't know the feeling.

Love is often accompanied by a "feeling" of light-heartedness, unexplainable happiness, excitement, passion, longing to be with that person at all times, wanting to be so close to that person that you want to be inside of their skin, a desire to gaze into their eyes continuously, etc...
However, love itself is NOT a feeling. Love is a choice. No matter what you do in life, feelings come and go. Too many people mistake feelings for love and then get married because of how it makes them feel and sooner or later the feelings dissipate and they think they are "no longer in love".
Love is ultimately a choice. When two people who love each other get married, it is because they see the value in each other INCLUDING their faults and weaknesses and they choose that NO MATTER WHAT, their partner is worth the sacrifice and compromise to make it work.
Do NOT mistake love with feelings... they ARE different.

There are all kinds of love ...the kind you have for your immediate family that you have always known....then the love you have from your peers your friends you meet in school...or at work.....then there is that love you find....when you meet someone and they make you come alive....it feels like time stands still when your eyes meet....as if no one else is in the room.....your heart pounds and you feel as if your body temperature is rising...you feel as if you are drawn to him or her....it's a real strong need to want to be with this person you just know you are attracted and you want to be close physically in their presence and you want to devote all your time and energy to this person and mentally. you are totally thinking of him or her all the time as if nothing or no one in the world mattered but this one person.....it's very intense...in my opinion it usually happens to a couple at the same time....not one sided. in some relationships people go together and are happy to be together and the love is like baby steps then the more they are together it gets stronger and is taking more giant steps....like a seed being planted. when you are together and enjoy each other's company you want to be with that person more and more. I don't think there is any real easy answer to your question i met my husband when i was 15 in high school we have been together now almost 48 years.....I think I found love...lol

When you care for that person more than you care about yourself.
When they're always on your mind.
You pray they get home safely, they're happy when you're not around.
You wait all night just to talk to them.
You're completely okay with being yourself around that person, yet you still get that nervous feeling in your stomach out of sheer delight when you see their face.
You get lost in it, so be careful. Love can be the best thing to happen to you, but it can also be messy and painful when it ends.
Primarily though, love is about committment. It's more than a feeling, it's a subconscience promise to love that person no matter what comes your way.

You'll know the feeling when it comes. When you're in love or truly love someone you'll never need to ask "How will I know". You will just know.

I don't know. I love someone right now, and I feel like I'd give anything for his happiness, even if it means not being with him.

When your man breaks up with you and you just sit there and take it silently after the initial outburst of shock and pain, because you know that you making a big deal out of it will hurt him and you can't stand the thought of making him that upset. That's how you know it's real.
