How do I know if I'm in love?

The moment you realize that you want the happiness of the other person more than anything else. If you feel like the happiest person in the world when they are happy and can't see them sad even for a moment, I think you can say that you are in love. But you can't define how much you are in love with someone. You can either be completely in love with someone or not be in true love. When you can not even think of seeing them hurt, but at the same time, you are ready to give them the space that they need to be themselves and be happy about it. That is when you can say that you are really in love with someone. When their happiness matters more to you than your own.

Well, you kinda just know. You love this person for there flaws as well as there talents. They make you feel happy and a sense of warmth and togetherness. When you see them you can be open to them as well as quiet. They understand you and you understand them. Such as every time you dream or meet them, you count the seconds the minutes the years to see them again cause you know down deep you can’t live without them. The feeling is quite unexplainable but when you encounter it one of the best feelings you will have. :) Also depends who your in love with.................. me overthinking: Cause your question really broad most people might think about a person though the category clears this. But you might be talking about your love for pizza or a thing you think you have great fondness or fancy for. jk:)

There won't be any subtle doubts or nagging issues. If you're in love, you'll know and itll be crystal clear to you! If you can see yourself being with the person you know inside out for as long as you live, confidently and passionately, then you know you're in love. I guess a connection of some form either through shared opinions, the same sense of humor or just being on the same wavelength will help you decide. Being in love isn't all the complications and worries about if they truly like you or if you belong with them: you'll just feel it!

1. You’re happy and just a little bit nervous. When you're in love, you're genuinely a happier person. It's like you're on a natural high. The thought of spending time with your partner really excites you and just looking at the dozens of selfies you took together is enough to put a cheesy smile on your face. But being in love also makes you a tiny bit nervous. You're anxious for what the future holds. Because you know that you want your relationship to last. "Lots of people compare love to something they could not lose or let pass them by, yet the uncertainty of its unknown outcome is exciting," Maria says. 2. Everything feels new and exciting. When you're in love, you're excited to do things you've already done a million times before because it's with your partner this time. They're the first ones you think of when you see a romantic movie preview or when you're planning to make a quick trip to the nearest fast food place. You'd even be willing to sit through four hours of a sports game if it means spending time with them.. Maria says that's because love sparks a new change in you. "When you’re in love, the basis of your perception changes. I compare it to a feeling of being really awake and excited," she says. "You have found someone that makes everything feel new and intriguing – even if it’s just sitting on the couch watching TV.”

First of all, I have found that being in love and loving someone are two very different things. When you are "in love", it is typically a warm, fuzzy, and happy feeling you get when you think about the person and maybe even a little bit of nervousness when you are around them. If you find yourself thinking about them a lot throughout the day, wanting to text them or share moments with them, that is a really good sign that you are in love. Actually loving someone, however, is less of a feeling and more of an action. For example, if you've been in a relationship for a long time, the feeling of being "in love" comes and goes. It will not be a constant feeling of infatuation for years and years. That is where loving someone comes in. In order to love someone, it means that you put their needs in front of your own. You consider them and their feelings and try to treat them with respect and care even if they are annoying you. In short, being in love is relatively easy because it doesn't require any effort to feel how you feel about a person. But love is difficult because it requires hard work.

Well, besides what happens in a purely biological sense, I think you love someone if you deem them to be an irreplaceable value to you. Who you will consider a value essentially depends on the virtues you hold as the most important to yourself, and love is when you see these same virtues embodied in the character of another person. There's also physical attractiveness which does matter to some extent. To give you an example, you may admire a friend of yours because they embody your virtues, but at the same time you might not find them physically attractive.

Love is a relative term that means a different thing for every single person who can relate to it. To me, love is a feeling that my life isn't complete without that person. I would say that you know when you're in love when you can think about the future and every single place you think of going, you imagine that person beside you. When you truly believe that whoever you are thinking about is the person that you can spend the rest of your life with in a Disney happily ever after story. I would say that's when you know you're in love.

If you feel that a person silences your inner noise, makes you feel calm, helps you believe in yourself more and their presence adds more to your life in some way then you can say its a kind of love worth staying for. On your part, you may find yourself concerned with the other person's well being and you may think about their happiness time to time despite the flaws in them. The flaws may annoy you, make you crazily mad at times so much so that you won't want to speak to them but even then if their well being concerns you and seeing them happy makes you genuinely happy inside then it can be said you're in love. Love takes time so it cannot be decided in a hurry if you're in love or not. If you are patient enough to wait for someone in a world where things change with a swipe and a click, you might just be in love with that someone.

That is an extremely personal emotion to every person and can vary based on the relationship. I knew I was in love when I looked at my partner and could see that he not only accepted me for all of me including my faults but loved me deeply because of them. That is all I needed to feel loved is to be accepted and admired for what makes me me. He has a different experience where he felt like he didn't know until a rush of feeling came over him that he was certain was love. It can be very different for even two people within the same relationship.

You think about them even when doing the smallest things. You catch yourself trying to impress them, or wonder if they're looking. You want to make them happy and you unconsciously realise that they make you smile and make you feel a certain way. Whenever the topic of love comes to mind, their name is the first name that comes to mind. You think about them constantly and want to become a better person and help them become a better person too. You realise that the reason you are asking this question is because you already have a person in mind and that person is the person you are falling in love with.
