How to Know When Its Love

Timothy Scheiman
If you have ever really been in love you should know the difference between infatuation and real love. How do you know when your really in love. Here are some keys to know when you are in love.

You want to be close to them

You just want to be around them. They are all you think about all day long. You cannot wait to be off of work to go over to their house and be with them.

You find it hard to eat and to sleep

There are not enough hours in the day to be near the one you love. You find that you have those elusive butterflies in your stomach and you cannot eat and you definitely think sleep is overrated. Suddenly things that were important to you before are not now.

You get excited just to hear their voice

You cannot wait to hear from them. Just their voice soothes you and you get excited to hear them say that they love you too.

Everything around you looks and smells so wonderful

Its like your senses are in overdrive. Everything you see, hear, and smell its like you have never smelled it before. When your in love its like your senses are off the charts. It may be part of the heightened emotions but who cares.

You want everyone to know it

Even men want to tell everyone when they are in love. You want everyone around you to know about it. You find that some people will try to bring you down or discourage you but when you are in love don't listen to them just go for it. You only live once you know. Even if you end up getting hurt its still an experience I would never trade in for the world.

You have more energy

Suddenly you feel like a kid again. You feel you could run five miles. The things that made you cautious in the past are gone. You want to experience all you can. You find yourself doing things you have not done in years. Being in love makes you act like a kid.

You would die for the one you love

If their life was on the line you would easily give up yours for theirs. This is what love is all about. This is what it means to love someone unconditionally. Do they have faults? Yes they do so does everyone. When you are in love you overlook them.

Being in love there is nothing like it nor will there ever be.
