when you tell someone your in love, generally its a good indicator of whether you are in love or not

I think it's different for everyone :smile:

Although I'm of the school of thought that says that you just know if you are. If you doubt it, you probably aren't in love.

I'd agree with that, it's confusing for a lot people, but when you are, you really know you are.

So if you doubt it, you're probably not.

If you don't know then you're not its as simple as that.

how?


if you're not sure, you're not.

but maybe when you realise that you think about them every second of the day...so that everything you do you can associate with them somehow...but then when you are busy or whatever and you realise you haven't thought of them, you feel guilty.

I think sometimes people kind of try to kid themselves that they'r'e in love when they're not, just because they like the idea of being in love and because they don't know what it is to be in love. I agree with the 'if you're doubting it you're probably not' because the emotions are usually too strong to doubt like could you live without them?

I agree with what has been said

I think one feeling is that even if the person is in the next room you feel like you can't breathe without them. Like a pain is in your chest that won't go away. Your heart aches for them to be close to you again. And everytime you kiss them its like the first time all over again. Your heart pounds, you feel light headed and you get tingles.

Yeah but real love is even deeper than that because people stay together for decades and still love each other but the light headedness doesn't really last forever, or does it?? You just need them and you want to share everything with them and always have them apart of your life, and you want to be apart of theirs. Its just love isn't it, how do you explain.

thats another part of love but you could say the same thing about your family really. I want to be a part of my partners life but I don't need to share everything with him, and I don't want to.

It lasts for a maximum of 2-5 years apparently. Something to do with PEA tolerance. After that, the experience of love changes into more of a committed bond of companionship...which is meant to be the ideal time to raise children, because if you were still as infatuated with your partner as before then they wouldn't get the attention they deserve, maw!

Anyway sod all that for now, true love lasts forever :p:

When you feel completely content and at ease with someone and being with them makes you feel so wonderful. Whenever they are happy you feel happy as well, whenever they are sad, you too are sad.

To me it's the feeling of being completely fulfilled. When I'm with him nothing else matters as much and he's the centre of everything that is good. A bit of heaven in an otherwise ordinary world :bebored: that's the closest I can get to putting it into words.

That's good... that means it's okay that you're not sure as well, you can take it back without hurting their feelings.
