So you’ve been dating your special someone for awhile now, and have been wondering if you might actually be falling in love, but you’re not that sure. Falling in love with another person changes the whole relationship and makes things much more serious. But serious is not always a bad thing. Sometimes just admitting our feelings to ourselves is the hardest part about falling in love. If you think you may be ready to admit to yourself that you are indeed in love, but need a little more proof, here are a few ways to help confirm that your feelings just might be real.
You think about them all the time. It’s true. Not being able to take that special someone off your mind throughout the day, might definitely mean that you have fallen in love with that person. Even the thought of them during your most long and boring day, brings a little pep in your step. And even as you go through all you need to do at work, every little thing seems to remind you of them. If you just can’t get that special person out of your mind, then it most likely means you are in love.
You want to meet their family and friends, and you want them to meet yours. When you fall in love and are ready to take it to the next level, you start thinking outside of just your significant other, and about the people closest to them. Meeting their family and friends, and having them meet yours means that you are also more confident in your relationship and are now willing to have those closest to you invest their time and emotions into this person as well. When you’re in love, you want the world to know it, and there’s no better way to start introducing your relationship to the world, than through your family and friends first.
You’ve contemplated the actual thought of marrying that person. The ultimate notion that you might actually be falling in love with your partner is when you begin to see them in a more permanent light. Love is a very powerful thing, and it also takes extreme commitment and longevity. When you are in a relationship with another person, the ultimate display of devotion is deciding to make your relationship a permanent one. If you just like the person you are dating, you usually don’t have the huge fear of losing them, and the idea of marriage never seems to arrive. But if you are in love, you will definitely begin to hear wedding bells whether you like to or not.
So whether you can admit it to yourself or not, love is a feeling that will inevitably reveal itself to you in one form or another. Your job will only be to decide to stop it from showing, or allowing it to grow. Hopefully you choose the latter. Good luck, and may you have a successful relationship no matter what you decide to do with your feelings. Have fun!
