...asking what love feels like on a forum where most the guys haven't even gone on a date yet. But yet, here goes anyway. To all three of you in here who's experienced it before, how do you know when you're in love?
 
Uh. There's really not a way to measure or quantify it.

I would say you know you're in love when you want to see someone for no particular reason: A booty call =! love. Perhaps when you want to pick up the phone and call someone simply because you wish to hear their voice, that might be love.

Do not confuse love with lust however. Love takes time to develop, for me it's always happened a few months after I started dating someone.

That's just my opinion though. Others may disagree.
 
Stupid answer, but you just know. It's not one specific feeling, it's a whole host of things. When you're with that person, they are what matters, they are someone you can trust, physically and emotionally, and you care for each other's well-being very deeply.

It's tough to explain, but you'll know.
 
#1 if you haven't f'd her yet...it's not love. You are probably boring her as well if you are even at the dating point already.

 
Love is just a series of chemical and electrical reactions in the brain to ensure that mates stay together long enough to raise a child properly to ensure the survial of the speicies.

Yeah, I've been in love before. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.

as good a definition as I can come up with :beer:
 
After a while it doesn't always feel like much, except when you're faced with the thought or reality of being apart for a while either temporarily or permanently, whereas it then feels like major drug withdrawal culminating from the gut.

That is often why when things are going bad, they can get messy, because your emotions involuntarily require you to be concerned about things in a more magnified controlling way than if it were just a friend.

Many things can make us feel happy, but mutual love is one of the few things that can make us feel fulfilled.
 
I heard it explained somewhere. Probably a TV show, but it kind of made sense.

"Love is when you hug someone and you still can't get close enough."
 
I've known this girl for 4-5 years now and I've only come to realize that she's all I want in a woman. I constantly think about her, I miss her, and I want her to be happy. Am I realizing that I'm in love?

eh.... she's turning into an one-itis.... nothing good will come of this... trust me....

ONE-itis? Explain.

'one it is' would be a better explaination.

However, most of the time he/she is not.

That added, however; when he/she usually is, you will get the same response.

No one likes to hear about love, they want to get to the sweaty bits.
 
What is love? It's an awesome feeling. Making things work between the girlfriend and you is like a rollercoaster though. Gotta be neutral on all grounds... it's crazy!
