How do you know if your really in love and its not just infatuation?

It takes a bit of time.  I knew I was in love when after several months, I found myself wanting to spend more time with the woman.  Infatuations occur for me, when I don't have much information about a woman.  I have strong feelings, but I don't know if I have much in common with her.  Love is when I know about the details of a woman, and I still have strong feelings.

First you always know when you are in love with someone. How you know that you should spend the rest of your wid them is a another story. Easy ways to tell how you act and feel around the person when you two are together. I guess my advice is to just follow your heart if it is there you will know. If it is not real love then, you just have to move on and take it a step at time from there. Their is no sure way to if all of this is right for you. Just have to take a chance and see what happens.

No one can tell you when youre in love.  Think about it, how can they?  Only YOU know your heart.  It is true however that those around you might observe the signs that you are truly in love, but to be able to tell you the exact point at which you know for sure is not an answer that anyone can provide for you.  You have to search your own heart.\n\nThese questions may be helpful.  Do you have more concern for you partner than you have for yourself?  Can you see yourself with this person until you die, faithfully?  Can you see yourself with anyone else?  How would you feel if suddenly your relationship ended?  Can you live without him or her?  Consider this one:  if your partner became a vegetable, would you remain with him or her?  Would you want out of the situation?  Does this person give you a feeling truly unlike anything youve ever felt before?  Just  a few things to consider.\n\nGood luck!

It's infatuation. HOWEVER, infatuation is just the first step towards love. In this stage you're in, you wanna be with them all the time. You can't stop thinking about them, etc, etc.\n\nAfter a few months of being in a relationship, this feeling wears down a bit. In 6 months to a year, if you still want to be with them, it's probably love.\n\nBut to keep the relationship moving in that direction, you have to create a strong base of MUTUAL honesty, trust, compromise, communication of thoughts/feelings, and respect.

Love is a deep feeling while infatuation is something you just admired.

Infatuation is an illusion that makes you feel you are in love. Yet no one can define the boundaries of love since it is very vast and deep and the feelings are ever changing. If you really like the person, try to enjoy the moment because there will always be changes for better and worse :-)

Infatuation is instant desire. it is one set of glands calling to other. Love is friendship that has caught fire. it takes root and grows-one day at a time\ninfatuation is marked by feeling of insecurity. You r excited and eager but not genuinely happy. there r nagging questions, little bits and pieces about your beloved that you would just as soon not examine too closely.it might spoil the dream\nlove is quiet understanding and mature acceptance of imperfection.it is real.it gives u streanth n grows beyond you-to bolster ur beloved.u r warmed by his/her presence,even when he/she is away.miles do no seprate u.you want him/her nearer.but near or far,u know he/she is urs n u can wait.\ninfatuation says,'we must get married right away.I can't risk loosing him/her'.\nLove says 'be patient. dont panic.plan ur future with confidence'.\ninfatuation has an element of sexual excitement.if u r honest u will admit itis difficult to be in one anothers company unless u r sure it will end in intimacy.love is maturation of friendship.u must be frnds before u can be lovers.\nInfatuation lacks confidence.when he/she is away u wonder if he/she is cheating.sometimes u check.\nlove means trust.u r calm,secure and unthreatened.he/she feels that trust,and it makes him/her even more trustworthy.\nInfatuation might lead u to do things u'll regret later,but love never will.\nlove is upper.it makes u look up,it makes u think up,it makes u a better person than u were before.

When a person is in love that does not stop them from talking with others. If you think you are in love you have to ask yourself is that you love the Ideal of being in Love or is it love. No one but yourself can say which one it really is. You might also need to give yourself and the one you have feelings for time to grow and get to know each other.

true love is that thing when you dont know how to express your feelings for them.  you will know inside that it is true love. if you feel that your heart beats faster and slower at the same time then it's true love. if you feel you are always happy, it's true love.

Just because you don't feel anything "extraordinary" when you seem him, doesn't mean that you're not in love. This is real life and the way you expect to feel is characteristic of movies and romance novels. Infatuation also makes you feel giddy when you see the person but there isn't a clear cut sign when you are really in love. You may feel very, very happy or nothing at all but as long as you know that you love this person, the absence of those cliched feelings shouldn;t bother you too much. You should know how you feel in your heart.

How do you know that what you feel is indeed LOVE?? Have you and this guy spent enough time together, shared your thoughts, etc.? It is usual for one party to fall in love with the other. Has this guy led you on at all?? If you really are in love with the guy, and he does not know, THEN YOU SHOULD TELL HIM EXACTLY WHAT AND HOW YOU FEEL!! COMMUNICATION IS THE KEY INGREDIENT IN ANY RELATIONSHIP! If he does not reciprocate for whatever reason, then you just need to accept the truth as hard as it might be and then move on.
