Question

How do you know your in love?

Answer 1

You value their well being and happiness above your own.  

All that fluttery butterflies stuff is lust ;o)

Answer 2

This is a difficult one!

Those who have never experienced love try to find that butterfly feeling that everyone descibes, the tingly feeling when your touched, the sense of belonging, how you cant seem to imagine life without them, but each individual person that falls in love has a completely different experiance, so as you have probably been told before, when you fall in love, YOU WILL KNOW ABOUT IT. There are no set amounts of feelings, or things you will experience, so just enjoy it when it come along, and just a tip, don't go looking for it, for love finds you when you least expect it xxxx

Answer 3

you just know ;)

Answer 4

you will know if your in love .i dont know how but you just do .

Answer 5

Without you, I have self, but

To be with you, I have existence

To hold your hand, I have meaning

To hold you in my arms, I have purpose

To kiss you, I have being

To join with you, I give to you, my "self" entirely

Answer 6

You can't get that person out of your head, initially. Then as time moves on, you base your decisions in life on how it may affect them and their feelings. You would do anything within your power for them, and they give you a stirring in your loins :). You need to "connect" if you get my meaning.

Are you feeling any of this? If so, don't worry. Love is just a temporary state of insanity.

Answer 7

If you know, you know.

Answer 8

Personally:

I know I WAS in love because I felt the same concern etc as I do for my children for him, but in a different way.

I know I'm NOT in love now because I am apathetic. I love, but I am not IN love. It's different.

I first knew I was in love because I adored him - everything about him and everything he did. Just for being him. I loved him enough to want to have his babies.

It's the most difficult thing I have ever tried to describe ever.

Answer 9

When you start doing crazy things and can't stop thinking about them. Everything else pales in significance. Your eyes light up at the mere mention of their name and you struggle to concentrate on anything.... After the initial trauma fades, for me it's seeing that love and adoration in the eyes that says it all and are moved from deep inside because you know that you have met a love true and rare.......

Edit: I think Elliot Ness has just about covered it with a bonus factor....;)

Answer 10

Yep, have to agree, when you are in love you wont be asking!

Honnest, i thought i had been in love before but until i meat my girlfriend i am with now i know that i havent been in love.

IT'S AMAZING!!!!!

Answer 11

It's not always pefectly obvious.Some folk don't realise till the persons gone and it hits them how much they miss them.Ask yourself if this person left would you be really unhappy?Do they brighten up your day.

Answer 12

Its when you cant think about anything or anyone else, and would do absolutly anything for that person. Being inlove usually lasts about 6 months and then it becomes loving someone and thats what lasts for the long term

Answer 13

you love being with the person, you don't want to part from him/her. You think of the person all the time, you get a feeling in your stomach when you see the person, your heart beats faster when you see the person you are in love with.

Answer 14

Love is:

Kindness

Compassion

Sincerity

Devotion

Loyalty

Tenderness

Understanding

Sacrifice

Dripping with sin in the bedroom doesn't hurt either.

Answer 15

Being in love is a gamble we all take. Sometimes it works, most times it dosen`t. It could be lust,or loneliness. It could be genuine caring, but , as we grow, we change, and our opinions change too. Then jealousy rears its ugly head, that can kill a relationship stone dead. Illness can stress , and having children can drive a wedge. I`m going to stop now. I`m getting depressed. lol

Answer 16

Genuine answer!

Can't stop thinking about him EVER!

Can't go a day without talking to him.

My heart skips a beat when i look at him.

I wanna just hmmmmmmmm never mind,you know what i mean.

Shambo!!!! erm i don't think so in my case!!!

Answer 17

You can feel it. Normally one asks questions like that when they are not.

Answer 18

For me, if you need to ask, you're not in love.

Answer 19

Your brain turns to toothpaste... ;)

What I mean is, if you're not careful you lose the ability to think rationally like you once did. It's a strange thing.

If you feel like that in a relationship, and can wrestle back the power of rational thinking enough to see that what you're experiencing is a good thing in the long run - then you know you're in love and should go for it!

Answer 20

When you want to spend the rest of your life with that person also love is a committment as well as the butterflies!

Answer 21

You know because if you are, you don't have to ask how you know you're in love.

Answer 22

When they take the time to text or call you regularly.

When they tell you that they have missed you.

And when you start missing them.

It`s simple really. :) :)

Answer 23

i have no idea how that works...

Answer 24

You don't because there isn't any such thing.

Answer 25

When you think of the object of your affection during every waking moment and you dream about them when you are asleep.
