I've had the honor of falling in love with the most amazing kid. Even though I did not know I loved him yet, it always came down to these key things. Love is a chemical reaction in the brain, and once it starts no one wants it to end. This article is supposed to help anyone in my situation and to think about that one person who certain feelings always point too.
1. You are always thinking about them.
Yes this is a really common thing that a lot of people say. In the end of the day it is the most important feeling. The person I fell in love with would always be running through my mind. Every second of every day I would think about our last dates, memories we created, or even dates or activities for the future. This is not a bad feeling. It truly shows how much one cares for that special person and how imperative they are to ones life. Some people see it as a stalking kind of action, but when falling in love random feelings flood over the body. It is almost impossible to control what is going on in your brain.
2. Everything leads back to them.
Whether its watching a t.v. show or reading a book, occasionally a random thought appears in the back of the mind. It is almost like the brain has a whole section dedicated to this person. The things that people say might trigger this, going to a place where one went on a date, or someone performing an action like this specific other might. When this happens, it just proves that this person left an impact in ones mind and heart.
3. Wanting to experience things together.
This is a topic that relates more to longer lasting relationships. Once a couple has been serious for at least six months the thoughts of doing everything together appears. For example; wanting to travel to another country, weekend beach trips, Disney World, etc. This starts to happen because one becomes attached to this person and wanting to explore and be put in different experiences. Of course, social media has an impact on this because of famous models, actors, and celebrities that are couples constantly traveling, which causes them to show off. When these feelings hit, do not shake them away. Embrace it and discuss it with your partner; it never can hurt.
4. Wanting to spend all of the time in the world together.
Love is about finding that one person where everything clicks with. When this happens, they are your best friend. Best friends usually want to dedicate all of their time to one another. This is completely normal. Especially if one does not see or get to see their partner in school like me. I love my boyfriend and every weekend all I want to do is go on a movie marathon. The most important thing is to even out the current relationship and the friends one has. If friends become out of the story, one will have no other support if something happens. Dedicate a whole Saturday or Sunday to them, but wanting to spend every second of every day with them is supposed to happen.
