Sure Ways To Tell"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

How do you know that you\u2019re in love? All the rom-com and dramas on Netflix will make you believe that feeling love is close to an indoor fireworks explosion, but, in reality, it\u2019s not always that obvious and straightforward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And if you\u2019re one of the people wondering \u201cAm I falling in love? Or maybe I am just lonely or codependent?\u201d, then check out our list of signs that will help you to understand what\u2019s going on with you, and if it\u2019s really love that you\u2019re feeling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Your feelings are consistent and don\u2019t go away with time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When the feelings are fresh and you haven\u2019t known the person for that long yet, it\u2019s fair to ask yourself: \u201cAm I in love or just infatuated or attached?\u201d. One of the sure ways to distinguish other feelings from love is that the latter doesn\u2019t go away with time. If you fancy someone, you can be infatuated with them one day, and forget about them the next. If you\u2019re not losing interest as weeks go by, you\u2019re probably in love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. You\u2019re present when you\u2019re with them<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These days, nobody has the attention span (thank you, TikTok), so if you are able to be present with a person for prolonged periods of time, it means something! On a more serious note, if you are fully engaged in the conversation and the things you do together, and you don\u2019t feel the urge to scroll, daydream, or feel boredom, it\u2019s a sign that you\u2019re falling for someone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. You\u2019re not afraid to show your true self<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Showing your true self is scary, and unless you\u2019re serious about your partner, the temptation is high to play pretend and camouflage at least part of your personality. But if you\u2019re in love, you\u2019d want to show them more of yourself and share your inner feelings and thoughts to deepen your bond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Being bored together is fun too<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Loving someone means having a good time together even when it\u2019s boring. If you\u2019re with a person who makes you happy and fulfilled, then cooking, cleaning, working alongside one another, and running chores is a pleasure too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. You\u2019re not interested in other people, even the hot ones<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First the internet, and recently Tinder have made tectonic shifts in how we date and how we see relationships. It seems like there\u2019s a never-ending inflow of potential candidates, so more people are willing to keep their options open and don\u2019t want to commit. Yet, when you\u2019re in love, there is no desire to look for alternatives. You\u2019re only really interested in your loved one, and nobody else matters to you. For example, if you\u2019re out with your friends, and someone objectively hot is hitting on you, you don\u2019t want to flirt or even pay attention to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. You start to share traits and habits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Similar to friendships, when you\u2019re in love, you are subconsciously mirroring their habits, traits, and smaller gestures. Perhaps you\u2019ve seen couples who kind of look like brother and sister? That\u2019s because they copy each other out of love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. You\u2019re thinking about them all the time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Loving someone means thinking about them day and night and being willing to share everything that\u2019s happening to you with them. Normally, if you\u2019re working on something exciting or genuinely have a good time doing something you enjoy, you get fully immersed in the process and don\u2019t really care about anything else. Yet, if you can’t stop thinking about this person no matter where you are and what you\u2019re doing, you\u2019re probably in love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. You prioritize them over everyone else<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you prioritize your wife, husband, boyfriend, or girlfriend, over everyone else, it means you love them. We can say anything we want and even persuade ourselves that we love the person, but it\u2019s our actions that show our true feelings. You\u2019ll find the time to talk to them, see them, or do something nice for them, regardless of how hectic your life gets, but only if your feelings are real.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. You empathize with what they\u2019re going through<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We know what you\u2019re thinking \u2013 you probably emphasize with lots of people, even if you\u2019re not in love with them. But hear us out! When something is happening with your crush, you\u2019re happy for them when it\u2019s good, and feel bad for them deeply if something goes wrong. Literally anything about them makes you worried.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Am I obsessed or in love?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
