Posted:*BUMP!*
Ok...
So I have a question.
What does love feel like?
Let me list some symptoms:
1) When he's with me, I feel peaceful.
2) When he's not with me, every time I close my eyes I see his face. And I miss him.
3) When I kiss him, the world could come down on top of us and I wouldn't notice.
4) When I'm stressed and unhappy... I just want to hug him. His touch is enough to make me feel calm.
5) (this is the one that makes me really wonder): were he to tell me that he wanted to stay in Ann Arbor for the rest of his life...I'd stay with him.
Am I in love?

Posted:You know when you're in love m'darlin, and there is no doubt. So, really, you can already answer this question for yourself.
Do you feel content knowing that you will be together when you're old and wrinkly?
take care and enjoy finding out

Posted:Mike, people do fall in love that quickly you will know in yourself if you are prepared to put up with all the bad things about him as well as the good. Everything good requires a bit of work 
But you should still take it easy. If it is love (and especially if it isn't), there is no need to rush. Try not to think about it too hard, because your mind can play tricks on you. But enjoy your time together, and treasure all the time you spend together.
You will go through difficult times, and hopefully weather those times... and eventually you will know.
It doesn't really matter what you call it, because everyone feels love differently, I believe
And Sniper. Sorry you're going through such a painful time. I am sure you will eventually meet someone who suits you, but you should never need to get yourself so far into debt over a relationship. Do things that make you smile, and learn from your mistakes.
Take care lads

Posted:Lightning. You crazy. 
Firstly, you need to define love for yourself. What do YOU think love is. Independantly of anyone you happen to be smooching.
THEN you need to look at those criteria and see if the situation warrents the word 'love'.
There are too many puppies out there that fall in love with any person, animal or prettily shaped rock they find so don't take their word for it. And every person has a different level of emotion and physicality associated with it too. You seem to be very logical rather than emotional. This can actually make love even more confusing. So stick with your logical self and set up some definitions and then find out for yourself.
Hugs!

1) Palpitations upon seeing lover
2) Longing for lover in absence
3) etc..

love is anti-hate. every thing that hate is, love is the opposite
I gotta say that there are a lot of similarities between love and hate. whether you love or hate someone, you get all heated up when you think of them, they're on your mind a lot, and you always talk about them, to the point where it drives others crazy. Both love and hate are very passionate, but two very different extremes, i think the opposite of both is indifference. so there's my little opinion on the matter
love is the most amazing feeling in the world, which is why it hurts so damn much when it's unrequited/betrayed/etc... there's nothing rational about it, which makes it so great!
and yup, lightning i think you're in love too, but why analyse it? enjoy it. go crazy. right in time for valentines day too!

Posted:yeah what then?...it doesnt really matter...according to what you wrote, it has to be to some degree mutual, you wouldnt really feel like that (only my view)...if not you would feel doubts in one or another way..telling hmm whenever you feel like that....you do what I and a lot more usually...too much thinking...o and just now I try just to follow my feelings and enjoy what I'm allowed to experience

DeletePosted:if you feel comfortable to do so, just tell him the truth, ie. the 'symptoms' that you listed above. whether or not it's love, you sound like you love spending time with him, if you tell him that, it's letting him know that he's special to you. it also gives him an oppotunity to let you know how he feels. maybe he feels that same, maybe differently, it's still early days, like you said.

In giving love there is an equal grace.
Nor need one seek the aura in the face,
As love unveils the beauty of all things."
