How Do You Know When You Are In Love: Here Are The 12 Signs!

by | November 4th 2019 | 1 comment

How do you know if you are in love? I do have to say that most of the time, people ask me the opposite question: How do I know if my partner loves me? But that’s not what we are going to talk about today. Today I am going to talk about what you’re experiencing because you’re wondering about what you’re feeling. More and more people ask me on a regular basis if they are really in love or if it is just an illusion…

So why do you want to know if you’re in love? Is it real love or is it passion or even emotional dependency? How can you be sure of what you feel for someone? All of these questions are legitimate and you shouldn’t feel guilty about asking them. Wanting to be sure of your feelings before expressing them and before investing in a serious relationship is perfectly normal. It’s actually a very smart attitude to have because it prevents you from suffering or making someone else suffer.

Some questions deserve a fair amount of thought because they allow you to move forward in all aspects of life. Getting a better understanding of your thoughts is important to help you make the right decisions. I will go over why a little further down in this article and I am going to share twelve signs with you that let you know that you are truly in love.

How do you know when you are in love: Here is the best definition!

It’s important to define what exactly you want to know when you’re asking this question. You aren’t just looking for happiness, you’re looking for something much bigger. Asking yourself “How do you know when you are in love” is the same thing as asking if you are going to build a future with this person.

It’s about finding out if this is love or attraction because very often, these are two feelings that are closely linked and confused with one another, but they are not the same thing at all. If you want a stable relationship, you have to know how to differentiate between the two. We could even say that the answer to this question is the definition of love.

This feeling can take so many different forms based on gender, age, a person’s past, and the definition isn’t written in stone. It all depends on your unique personality and your needs in terms of love. Knowing when you’re in love allows you to get to know yourself better and be surer of what you truly want…

How to know if you are in love: Why is it so important?

One might say that love is natural and you have to let your emotions guide you.

Nevertheless, figuring out how to tell if you love someone involves more than just emotions. Your future also comes into play because you’ll have decisions to make. There might be some doubts, but there will most certainly be questions because love is an emotion that makes a person challenge themselves.

Consequently, wanting to know whether or not you’re in love with this person allows you to make the right decision concerning investing in this relationship and making the other person feel even more in love with you. It is often when you realize that you are truly in love that you decide to fully invest and begin working on building a solid future together. It isn’t necessarily a question of time because sometimes you have an answer to your question after just a few weeks of being together.

Giving love in order to receive love is also an element that makes a person wonder about what they’re feeling. It’s normal to wait for something in return and to want to feel loved by the person you love. Before you open up and share the way you’re feeling, you want to be sure about what you feel and about what your partner feels!

Moving on from a painful past after a difficult breakup by loving someone else is one of the thoughts that come up the most frequently. After having experienced serious heartbreak and perhaps after having promised yourself to never love again, it’s perfectly normal for these questions to come up when you meet someone new. “Am I really in love or am I just trying to forget my ex?” You might be wondering if you’re just rebounding. This is a common question and it’s perfectly rational.

How to know if you’re in love: The 3 biggest signs

Here are the three telltale signs that will answer your question. If you recognize these indicators, chances are that YES, you’re truly in love!

1. When you are in love you want to plan a future together

Love and the future are often linked and when you’re wondering about whether or not you’re in love, the answer is often yes if you can see yourselves together down the line.

This doesn’t necessarily have to be in the form of marriage and children, but in wanting to spend quality time together. I’m talking more about imagining yourselves in a relationship that becomes even more serious. This is how we can understand what we are feeling.

That said, this isn’t about seeing each other in the future as friends! You don’t want to be in the friend zone; you won’t be in a romantic relationship with the person that you want.

2. How you know you love someone: You want to share your world!

Wanting to spend time with the person you like is perfectly logical, but when you want to discover new things together and show him or her places you love and your passions, it means that there is something more. This is more than just a simple attraction because you’re inviting them in.

If you want to take it a step further and present him or her to your friends, don’t doubt your love. It is there, clear as day!

3. Getting butterflies whenever you think of them is a sign of love!

How can you tell when you’re in love with someone? In order to answer this question, it’s going to be important to analyze the way you feel when you are with them or when you are preparing to see them.

When you feel butterflies when you want to be as attractive as possible when you feel a little surge of stress right before you see each other is often a sign of being in love.

How do you know you’re in love? Keep an eye out for these 9 elements!

In order to be sure that you’re in love and be sure if he or she is The One, you’re going to have to go a bit further and examine a few other signs that I am about to outline for you in this section. They will help you to figure out if what you’re feeling is love and if it’s stronger than passion.

I have written out 9 signs that will help you know for sure if you’re in love or if this is just a fleeting feeling.

1. I am afraid of losing him/her

Having feelings for a person and caring about them is one thing, but fearing to lose them is another. It is more powerful and can help you to know if what you’re feeling is truly strong or not.

2. I miss him/her

When you begin missing someone that is far from you, it means that you are becoming attached and that feelings are present!

This is definitely a sign that you are crazy about this person!

3. I’ve introduced by partner to my family

When someone asks me, “How do you know you’re in love,” I often see that they’ve already gotten started on numerous projects together and that they’ve already reached more than one milestone. I am referring to things like introducing someone to your parents or your closest friends. These are signs that you’re feeling more and more invested in the relationship!

4. You go out of your way to make your partner happy

When you’re wondering about how to know if you’re in love, pay attention to any of your gestures. If you find yourself going out of your way to make this person happy, it means that you have serious feelings for them and most likely that you want this relationship to continue to bloom.

5. You’re beginning to know them like the back of your hand

Loving someone and being in a relationship are two different things. When you begin to have real feelings for a person, you really know them. Whether it’s their tastes, their expectations, or even their reactions, you begin to know them as a person. You know what will bring them joy and how they will perceive things.

This is going to reinforce the complicity between you! Have no doubt, if you recognize this it means that you’re in love!

6. You want to tell them how you feel

It’s often pretty simple to know if you’re in love when you clearly feel it, but you don’t dare tell the other person. The idea of sharing your feelings with this person makes your heart flutter and can sometimes make you seize up, resulting in frustration that you are unable to say the words to him or her.

You just want it to be reciprocated!

7. You catch yourself talking about him/her all the time

Your friends know everything about this person even though they’ve never met. If you’re wondering how to tell if you’re in love, pay attention to how you talk about this person to other people. How important is he/she to you when he/she is not around?

8. You are no longer interested in other people

When you meet someone, even if you’ve been in a relationship for a few weeks or a few months, some people keep in contact with these other men and women. Whether it’s exes, people you had gone on dates with, or others, if you’re truly in love you’ll have a tendency to forget about these people so that you can invest in your current relationship even more.

9. You check out my website to find an answer!

When you’re asking, “Am I in love” and you find yourself looking for answers on my site, it means that you’re feeling something very strong for this person. Not everyone is going to have the same reflex and it’s important to give 100%!

Thanks to all of these signs, you’ll know for sure if you’re in love or not and now you have to tell this person how you feel.

If you are still unsure, don’t hesitate to get in touch with me personally here and I can guide you step by step!

Wishing you all the best,

Your coach for knowing if you’re really in love!
