I think thats more of a sign of being comfortable and sloppy than love.

*When you can be your "authentic self" with that person. You don't feel like you have to say/do certain things for that person to like you.

*When you can be fully honest about every aspect of your life with that person, without fear of judgement or ridicule.

But that holds true with your very closest friends, as well. What's the difference between 'in love' and an awesome friendship? Is sexual attraction the only tipping point?

I thought we were already discussing things in the context of a relationship.

In my opinion, yes, as far as love goes.

Whether you choose to make the person you are in love with your lifetime partner through marriage takes some cognitive analysis too though. (about life goals, role expectations, desire to have children or not, etc)

We are, but I was asking a side-question.

Not the only tipping point.

A girlfriend should be my friend. And a girl.

And there should be mutual physchial attration.

And physichal compatibility, like where your bodies fit together.

Plus, I have to be able to put my arm around at church/the movies.

Maybe for you, but not for me. Really.

And yes, valkyrie, I pee in front of him when needed but I don't do the other...though in an emergency once I did while he was in the shower...:o TMI, sorry...

I hate to say it, but you just know. Or at least I just did, and I'm sure I'm not the only one out there.

It's just a feeling I had and when I looked back on previous relationships where I thought I was "in love" I knew that the feeling I had was much different and I just knew.

It really is sappy, but it's something that I find difficult to explain.

Married but not in love...
 
It's sad...not to know love, that is. I was once in love! How do I know? Well...no other woman would interest me or get my attention in any way (no matter what she looked like or what she had on - or not); I would smile with every sensation of her existence; The truth of things would come out naturally - lies did not exist; Life felt easy and pleasant - it was easy to learn anything, deal with any situation no matter how unpleasant...I felt like Superman although I couldn't fly or dodge a bullet! Need I mention that it was only then that I was the best man I ever wanted to be...my dreams seemed possible, my possibilities endless! What a woman!!! I could trust myself in her hands, I could close my eyes and let her take the wheel and guide me through any uncertainty. I had not one sad moment - I know...it sounds impossible yet it was true - I miss being in love and I hope that those who deserve it find it...Agapa alh8ina kai mhv pwnas...dwse tov eauto sou kai deksou ths agaph sou th psyxh -

OK, so if you KNOW... how long did it take before the words are said ??

how do you know if you are in love
 
If you bang a chick and you still want to be around her 10 seconds after you cum.

GeekyPenguin 06-24-2006 10:40 PM

When they show up at your house and you are cross-dressing for a convention and they still want to get down and dirty with you but JESUS SAID NO so you just hold hands and have devotionals instead.

Or so I've heard.

Munchkin03 06-25-2006 06:14 PM

It sneaks up on you, and you realize then and there that this is the person that you want to make a life with, and you want to start right away.
