How do you know when it's love?

Well everyone likes to talk about sex but this forums also about love. So I wanna know, how did you know it was love? And when did you first say those three little words to your significant other? Or if you don't ever say those things, is it just a good lay for you or what? j/k THANKS!

 

you can only get an inclination that its love. Only multiple years later, when you still get that inclination do you truely know it's love.

 

i tell everyone i love them that i am close to, whether male or female. but if it's "let's get married" love.. well, i don't quite know. i know that i would have married my best friend, had he asked, but that's because i've done these hypnosis things where you find your "happy place" and out of all the places in the world, i felt best sitting in the grass next to him talking. But we would probably get a divorce after a month, we're like that.

 

Yeah I do the same thing, well not to the guys, that would just look gay. But to my certain female friends I do... We tell each other we love each other all the time, weather we have done stuff or not.

 

I can't tell you, but it lasts forever.

 

"how did you know it was love?"
-- For everyone I think it's probably different... for me though it actually took some time to come to the realisation that i truely was indeed IN love and not that I just wanted to be loved, pure lust, or love/care for deeply in a friends way. Since I wasn't really IN love before I met my fiancee, I didn't know what it was like or what difference there was. Then when I started thinking of scenerios that have happened to people that I've known or that I've heard of happening and imagining those things happening to him or us, it hit me. Such as if he was in a life-threating accident what would I do or how would I feel or thinking of life without him. It caused a pain in my whole body and an actual pain in my heart that was undescribable. Then some things that are a bit embarrassing that have happened in my life or that I've NEVER thought of telling ANYONE even my close friends that I felt that I could tell him, so I feel a total trust that no matter what I say he won't judge or think poorly of me. Also that it's recipricated, one sided relationships are sucky. The few things that I know that it's love for sure are that we can be walking down the street and see a couple (a very old couple) and we both say usually at the same time awwww how cute! that's SO going to be us in x-amount of years. I always see a future with him, even if it's a lazy sunday afternoon and we're just laying about.... it's the small things that made me see that it's truely more then anything that I've felt before.
--Sorry If I babbled about not sure if any of what I said makes sense or if it helps... just my experience. Good luck.

 

"You know it's love when your love for eachother surpasses your need for eachother"

 

If you're in love, you'll definitely know. The other person means everything to you, and just the thought of them makes you smile. You miss them when they're gone and you bring out the best in each other. It's so hard to describe. Love is the best thing in the universe. Love is when you feel like your partner completes you and you complete them. It's such a complicated emotion to explain, but such a simple one to understand.

Read Tom Robbins book, 'Still life with Woodpecker' if what you are experiencing resembles what happens in that book - then you'll know its love.

 

i agree with LivingLegends.

SIDE NOTE: Love is amazing, and its power I truely believe is beyond our understanding. And if u've felt its power, I mean really felt it like I did for the 1st time recently u know what I mean!

 

just read the signature

 

when you think about that person constantly and you can talk to that person about absolutley anything without being embarassed and you trus eachother completley

I first said those words in the middle of the night 9we snuck out) we were in my bed after sex we were laying there and he said "it may sound crazy cuz we have only known eachother for three weeks and i dont want to ruin anything by saying it but i love you" then i said it back.

 

You'll know what love is! It's very...prominent...is that the right word? I dunno. But, being together feels good, doin stuff together feels good, and life just feels good with them. That's not to say you shouldn't have friends. Well, i don't really. Damn! Everybody just seems to suck compared to my girlfriend. They're just...i dunno. Louisville's not fun. Not to me at least...but then again, i wouldn't trade it for the world. Wisconsin however, that's different.

 

Yeah, and love has been proven as a scientific thing. That's pretty damn major. Something that you can't see that's there. You just gotta have faith. Don't stop looking, til you find your soulmate.
