how do you know if your really in love?

Question

i have a bf and i love him (or atleast i think i do) how do i know if i really love him or if i just think i love him or anything like that?

Answer 1

That's great you clearly have a crush, but without further information we can't tell the difference if it is just that or something more enduring. Of course you probably don't have the experience to know what sorta things you should tell us so that we can tell you if you're in love or not, rather, you are getting a bunch of silly questions as answers to your question.
To gain any sense of closure to your question, you have to be a little patient. It is impossible for you to know if you are in love at the moment or not because if you weren't, that fact would be obfuscated by your infatuation/crush for him. This is why patience is very important, you have to see past those initial feelings of lust, and determine if what you feel is MORE enduring. Only you can really determine if you are in love with someone, so our answers to your question are essentially useless other than to offer you a few differing perspectives, however, I think if you last a month and you both are over being joined at the hip (and eased off on the inappropriate PDA's -- not saying don't do that just not 24/7), but the sex is still great and you can still talk for hours without getting bored -- Well then there is more chance that you are in love rather than infatuated.

It usually takes a couple of relationships (generally at least one of each kind) to know the difference between love and infatuation (or if it's just friends with benefits, which is a third type that I'm not really gunna address here).

Answer 2

Youths need make 30-50 adult friends. Friends in the
adult world are for life. Love includes sharing and after
marriage intimate opportunities to share everything. The
chance that you are in adult love is unlikely. 80% of the
cute couples presently are failing in intimacy due to the
high cost of bad selections of interaction and hobbies.
Hi-tech phones are banned in China where the wedding
temple colleges are. Action is not the answer. This leads
to boring and unsettled ideas. Generally the stats are
1 year on the budget, most gifts, food, and polite sharing.
This is true interest. Hi tech is not allowed, cars, jewels,
are after engagement gifts. Really think over the partner
side of potentials, you can be making a friend without
future commitment. The one point is kissing, is not
a happy moment without the ideal of sharing hope.
Keep the kissing polite, hello, goodnite, thank you.
Home interests like hobbies, sports are the best.

Answer 3

Who can say for certain that it is love. Especially at the
beginning of togetherness. It might seem like love at the beginning because of the excitement of "falling in Love".
It's being together and getting through the times when you
think he's the most selfish thing that ever lived and all the
other times when you don't agree. If you are still in love when
you don't agree with each other, then it must be real. What ever it is just enjoy the moment and don't worry about it.

Answer 4

Married 33 years, together 35, spent the last year with him fighting cancer. How did I know that I was really in love with him, not just in lust? When I knew that I didn't want to date anyone else anymore. I was dating a lot of guys and tired of guys easily. When I was still dating him after a month and turning down others I thought....mmmmmmmm must be something going on here. :}

Also, when we spoke about marriage and having kids I told him because of a lot of female problems that I had experienced all of my life I wasn't sure I'd be able to have kids so we might have to adopt because I did want kids. (He was brought up Catholic and kids were important to him too). One day he asked me if it would be dangerous for me to get pregnant and I told him I didn't think so, I just didn't think I would be able to have kids. He offered to have a vasectomy because if it was, my health was more important than trying to give him a child of our own....he didn't want to risk losing me.

Wow! He was in his early 20's and cared more about my health than being able to father his own child. I knew then I had a winner for sure!!!

35 years later we are still together and I still love him - that is why I am helping him with his fight against cancer. Financially it is draining us for me to stay neat the hospital where he is being treated but I will gladly lose my home, all that is material in my life, etc. if I can keep him alive.

Answer 5

If you can look at the person from a distance and ask yourself the question "do I love this person?" or "can I be in love with this person?" and then immediately receive a response from your own self, you might have the answer. The other question you need to be aware of, is this person the right or "a" right person for me. It's perfect to have both, but only time usually helps reveal both. That's my own experience. Another simple test is, if you know immediately they're not the one, they're not the one.

Answer 6

I think knowing if you are in love is a personal thing. I knew b/c I wanted to be with my husband, then boyfriend, all the time, and I never got sick of him. We've been together for 8 years and still want to be with each other all the time (not in a weirdo way...we just like spending time with each other). And, I can't imagine my life without him.

Answer 7

Ask a few simple questions.Answer them truthfully.1 do you miss this person when they are not there?.2 what is your vision of a lover?.does he fit it?.3 is he kind and considerate?.4 have you known him long enough to have fallen in love?.4 if another guy came along and asked you out would you go?.5 do you both confide in one another?.I have thought your situation through and I do believe that you do love him.
