Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Love Life?
this is kind of hard to answer, but im about to try.
there really isn't an answer for this question either.
if you love someone, you know you love them. they are on your mind all the time, and when you know you are about to see them, you get completely nervous & can't seem to concentrate on anything, and you find yourself getting ready hours before you leave.
if you think you are falling out of love with someone, you usually don't think about them as much. you can actaully picture your life without them in it, you don't need to hear their voice everyday & you don't want to be around them constantly.
im sorry if it wasn't very clear, but i tried :]

There are many types of love, and many other cultures and languages have numerous words to describe each of these. The English language is serious lacking! You can love someone platonically, that is non-romantically or non-sexually. You can love without necessarily liking someone completely. You can love, but not be "in love" with someone after the passion has faded in a romantic shallow love affair. Love is an enduring ideal of unselfish giving and a desire to want positive things for another being. Giving and receiving love feels differently and unless a relationship consists of a consistent amount of both from each person, the life of such a relationship is frail. Feelings come and go and are subject to our moods and circumstances. Sometimes the end of one kind of feeling gives way to no feeling or a deeper one. You may have decided you no longer benefit from being with someone, and have lost interest. That was only romantic love, which is good for the beginning, but not much else.

Whoa, this is a toughie. It's hard to answer without getting all gushy, so I'll try my best. I think it's pretty unique to each person how he or she knows they're in love. In my opinion, it's a lot like a disease, only it's like no disease you've ever had. You have physical symptoms - maybe you can't eat, or sleep, you sweat, your heart races, you might even feel sick to your stomach in their presence. You think about them constantly, want to know what they're doing all the time and want to be with them, even if they're just doing their homework or mowing the lawn or whatever. I say it's love when even if they hurt you and abuse you and call you names, you can stil forgive them. They are the beginning, middle and end for you. That's when you're in love. And when you don't love someone? Well, you could care less about them, that simple. Hope this helped.
