Topic: How do you know you're in love? | |
---|---|
When you find yourself doing all the things you thought you would never do, just to make her/him smile. When you look at them, you feel you can do anything. When being close to them... the rest of the world just goes away. It is pretty magical when all is said and done. I like this answer best, so true and so romantic....Especially this, "the rest of the world just goes away".. I know I'm in love when I'm not chasing the relationship, it comes naturally..It just feels easy, comfortable....I know I'm in love when we fight with healthy communication rather than insults or manipulation tactics....I know I'm in love when my partner and I share the same life priorities...I know I'm in love when we share a deep and abiding respect for each other...And last, love for me means not just accepting each other the way we are, but embracing it, championing it... I like how you point out the various aspects of peoples behavior when it comes to love, Leigh... with this comparative view we're able to see that love has the power to survive even in seemingly dysfunctional relationships... I especially like your summary statement... "love for me means not just accepting each other the way we are, but embracing it, championing it"... you’re so right… in that no matter how different we might be individually, ultimately our love allows us to accept and defend each other... |

Love means different things to all of us. Whether it's a strong feeling, or positive actions, we know when we're in it. So, how do you know you're in love? When you are doing dumb things that you have never done for a long time, you reread their messages, giggle like a little girl, blush when he messages you, and you want to kill him when he hogs the bed !!! Sorry Pache.. |

Love means different things to all of us. Whether it's a strong feeling, or positive actions, we know when we're in it. So, how do you know you're in love? When you have this feeling; Love is a selfless concern for the welfare of the other person, that is not called forth by any quality of loveableness in the person loved, but is the product of a will to love. I like how you express unconditional love, toody.. |

Remember those "Love Is" characters when were young? Love is a deep concern for his well being and happiness. It is caring and giving without concern of receiving. He's my best friend, my lover, my partner all rolled into one. When his smile brightens my whole world, and I want to make him smile. Its fulfillment on an etheral plain. Not being able to bear the thought of life another day without him in my life. And I just cannot wait to kiss him again!! I think and feel that, I'm in love! I've had it, I'd like to again. I totally get that, TxRose... when both thinking and feelings revolve around the smile in his eyes as he looks at you too... |

Love means different things to all of us. Whether it's a strong feeling, or positive actions, we know when we're in it. So, how do you know you're in love? when the other person's needs are as important to you as your own. when you feel like you are not whole without him. when you feel peaceful comfortable wanted beautiful (and horny) in his presence :) this is so cool, sweetestgirl, I can totally relate, with a smile on my face... |

Love means different things to all of us. Whether it's a strong feeling, or positive actions, we know when we're in it. So, how do you know you're in love? When she's the most beautiful woman in the world and I won't look at anyone else. When I start to fantasize about our future and all the adventures we'll have. When I am completely happy just being with her doing nothing in particular. When discovering her imperfections make me love her more. When her life goals become as important as my own. When I feel responsible for her well-being. When I can't live without... Karen |

Sorry Pache.. Oooh, I can definitely identify with this, fineporcelain... sounds like the deeply infatuated stage of being "in love"... and is there one man alive that doesn't hog the bed? |

I truly understand feeling "tingly and alive"... it's such an awesome experience... and doing things you don't like to do, but you enjoy doing them with her... that's really cool... |

you know you are in love when you still : Cannot wait to hear their car pull up in the driveway When that kiss hello is better than the kiss goodbye When being in their arms is your safe place When you can do his dirty laundry and pick up his smelly socks and not care. When you make love you know he is the right one. When you make his favourite meals ,even though you don't really like it but want to please him. When you know he had a rough day and all you want to do is comfort him. And when the time comes that illness takes them away from you are still missing them and wishing they were with you. That's when you know. that's lovely Betty, and true |

I know I’m in love when:
We’re apart for even a day and I miss him terribly No matter what I’m doing, he’s always on my mind I’m not thinking, behaving, or reacting like my normal self No matter what goes on between us I can’t picture the future without him He has his own way of seeing things, and I start to see them the same way I get excited every time I see his face even when he doesn’t know I’m looking I feel really happy when the phone rings and his name shows up on the caller ID |

Well, let's see...the fact that I’ve never had as much fun as when I go out dancing with him could just be that he’s a really good dancer.
The fact that he makes me laugh more than I’ve ever laughed with anyone else could be that he’s really just THAT funny. That I enjoy talking with him so much that it’s not uncommon for us to be asked to leave so the restaurant can close at midnight, when we had dinner at 7:00, might just be that we have a great deal in common, he’s very personable, and he’s a great conversationalist. That he makes me melt down to my toes every time he kisses me could just be a sign that he’s had entirely too much practice at it. So, I think that I REALLY know I’m in love and not just taken in by a handsome face, good chemistry and the fun we have together, is probably when we find ourselves sitting around one day doing nothing in particular and I realize that there’s no place else I’d rather be. |

No matter what I’m doing, (s)he’s always on my mind - yes, yes, yes!
I’m not thinking, behaving, or reacting like my normal self - totally I feel really happy when the phone rings and his name shows up on the caller ID And hours on the phone go by too quickly, like mere minutes. |

I agree, everything your love does is somehow magically better. |
