Being the completely love-struck individual that I am, I have been thinking about the different ways people fall in love. Everyone’s love story is different but there are specific ways that each love story begins. See if you recognize any of these for your own relationship or in those around you.
1. Head Over Heels
This is when two people have been seeing each other for a while and just all of a sudden one or both are overcome with an intense emotion that they may or may not have felt before, love. It seemingly comes out of nowhere but is justified by every action that is made by the one they have fallen for. Looking back, you can always remember the exact moment you completely fell for your partner.
2. Slowly But Surely
When these people fall in love, they know they have found the person they want to spend the rest of their lives with and are certain the other feels the same way. This is a little harder to pinpoint an exact moment that you fell for the other but rather it just naturally comes over time. The moment that you do know that you are in love is the best feeling in the world because you know it is right.
3. Love At First Sight
Although I personally don’t believe in love at first sight, (I believe that lust at first sight is a thing), I’m sure there are people out there who are convinced of it. This is the kind of love where the second you see this individual, you are certain that they are the one for you and everything is going to work out between the two of you. But of course, it is not just looking that gets it to work; they must go up and introduce themselves or else it cannot turn into the relationship they wish for.
4. Cautiously
These are the people who have been hurt before and so they want to make sure that this is the real deal before they open themselves up to someone. Being as cautious as they are, when they finally do open up, they are completely trusting of that individual and they show their appreciation and love for them in everything they do.
5. Friends First
This is your classic movie plot where the two best friends are in love with each other and everyone but each other knows. When the two finally do find out and they begin their relationship, it is a easy and smooth start because they are already super comfortable with each other. All of the same inside jokes transfer over; they just might be a bit more dirty than before.
6. Enemies First
Well, maybe not enemies but these are the two that are always arguing about everything, but it is just to hide their feelings for each other. These arguments may carry over to their relationship but they have other ways to settle their disputes.
