It feels like even when things turn to crap and everything falls apart, you still have their back. They would do the same for you and would sooner take a bullet than try to harm you.
It’s Not real love or TRUE love if in any scenario or way shape or form it doesn’t feel like it’s not gonna Kill you or be the death of you hands down Soft love or Not💯
The vulnerability of it terrifies me, and it’s always been a problem.
I always thought the black suit in Spider Man was a great metaphor for love. “This thing is attached to you and a part of you now, and it’s awesome. But someday you might have to separate yourself from it, and it’s going to be incomprehensibly difficult and painful.”
(Then, also like the black suit, it will probably become your arch nemesis once it’s ripped away!)
Reading comic books and having this sort of perspective is definitely what gets me laid so much. 👍🏽
With my wife, it just feels like no matter what happens it will all be ok because we have each other. Not to downplay the love i have for her, but the moment i first laid my daughter on my chest. Thats when i knew what the deepest, purest real love is. It just hits on another level
So I’m a str8 man in a happy relationship with a woman. But the only time I fell in love was when I was 13. I was in gym class when I saw Mr.Hodgens, the gym teacher, and I instantly knew what love was. I heart raced and i had butterflies in my stomach everytime i saw Mr.Hodgens. I developed a romantic relationship all thru out my highschool and I will never forget it. This is was in the early 90s so it was more acceptable.
I’ve been with my wife for 17 yrs, married for 13. I knew after 2 weeks of dating that this was it. She is my favorite person on this rock. If i laugh, i wanna laugh with her. If i cry, she’s probably the only person i’m comfortable crying in front of. When i’m not around her, i want to be. It’s a thirst that you didn’t know you had
true love has lost its meaning, back then it used to be finding the person who’d never leave your side and support you no matter what, nowadays love is rationalised by snapchat streaks and how frequently you send pictures of your gentials to one another.
Real love for me is when my kids hug me and tell me i`m the best dad ever. And they repeat it asking “you got that?”. They are 12,11,10, and 8. Single dad. They keep me alive. If not for them I am not sure I would still be here.
I’ve been in love. My love is passionate. When I love someone I only have eyes for them. Anyone else is inferior to them by comparison and I fully commit to them. However, I’ve never felt reciprocal love so I haven’t experienced that level of love in return.
It’s beautiful and terrifying in equal measure. It’s showing someone your most private moments and trusting they won’t leave when they know all parts of you.
It’s a choir of light and the wind in your hair and a safe place to rest.
Love is home when you’re homesick.
Most of the comments so far describe to me what “falling in love” (the high) or “being in love” (the comfort) feel like.
If you are trying to figure out if you are in love, however, I don’t think those are as useful, considering how many other things can also cause those feelings. Infatuation gives a “falling in love” high, for instance.
I believe you know you are in love for real when you start placing the needs of the person you love before your own. When that love comes fully into being you will not hesitate to die for them, to surrender your dreams for the pursuit of theirs, and to spend more time worrying about their happiness and wellbeing then you do your own. That is “real” love, not obsession, lust, mere companionship, or a residential business merger.
Romantically….feels like your sick to your stomach in the best way possible, it feels like obsession, cravings, withdrawals, beauty, pain, it feels like you can’t breathe right, you can’t say the right things, it feels like purpose and meaning, a new glow to life, you feel scared to death but its an adventure you’d die for. A deep connection, a fire in your soul, passion, happiness, anger, sadness,craziness ….true love is NEVER ENDING. I love “LOVE” 🥹 good luck finding it, not taking it for granted, and NEVER letting it go 💘 most people think their in love, but their not .
Personally, it’s the biggest dream/nightmare u will ever have. U will love someone so much but the fear will elevate with that love due to u not wanting to lose them. The more u love the more u get hurt in the end, it’s inevitable wether it’s from sickness or natural causes or murder. U will experience beautiful moments it will feel as if ur so safe and comfortable until the inevitable happen and now ur in the biggest nightmare to ever exist. A living nightmare.
Your partner encourages and supports your interests
If you’re not feeling yourself, then you’ll have your partner to help you get through well anything you’re dealing with
Having your partner be the person you can both do everything with or say everything to you can be vulnerable with your partner and them with you without a negative reaction or harsh judgment
Love in humanity shouldn’t be a chore or something that leads either one of you to be abusive towards each other
Abuse isn’t love, but knowing what love is takes time
Being in a relationship is an uphill climb, while finding the right person to feel this kind of love is trial and error
Psych2Go has a few videos on focusing aspects of qualities and certain actions people do to make you know what a romantic relationship is when it’s positive and a two way street on the person loving you and yourself loving them back
The feeling you are more together then alone. Blind trust and knowing it will all be okay as long as you are together. Would literally take a bullet for her so she can live to raise our kids.
It feels like a lot of things .. it’s like floating, it feels safe and secure yet exciting and warm. Your mind is finally resting easy and there’s not a single day you can imagine without them.
Comments
What answers you expecting from reddit
Not exciting, just very safe and free. Like coming home after being away for years
I would say like a good dream that you don’t want to end.
You wish to live another day with him/her
Like gaining a scar from Voldemort.
It feels like even when things turn to crap and everything falls apart, you still have their back. They would do the same for you and would sooner take a bullet than try to harm you.
It’s like being drunk, but sane.
Like warm apple pie
Peace
raw eggs
Peace. Understanding. Safe.
Skyrockets in flight
it feels safe. you feel safe and secure.
The love you have for your mom. Even tho you hate her you’d still do anything for her
It feels like 60 lbs of Belgian fur missile tackling you when you get home from work
feel like this by ingrid andress answers that
You think about him/her every moment of the day
Warm apple pie
Having a partner committed to helping you through life. That’s more of what it is than what it feels like…but it is incredible contentment
It’s Not real love or TRUE love if in any scenario or way shape or form it doesn’t feel like it’s not gonna Kill you or be the death of you hands down Soft love or Not💯
Wish me and you feel this one day, have a nice sunday.
Brutal. You can’t eat sleep or think about anything except her.
Like waaaarm apple pie!
Warm and safe … also absolutely terrifying because I’m so scared of anything happening to them.
It’s so fulfilling it’s scary.
The vulnerability of it terrifies me, and it’s always been a problem.

Peace
when someone looks at me the way I look at garlic bread
Comfortable and fun.
The voices finally calm down
intoxicating
Like…I’m going to find my baby going to hold her tight…going to make some afternoon delight
Real love is the feelings are gone, and yet I don’t want to go anywhere.
With my wife, it just feels like no matter what happens it will all be ok because we have each other. Not to downplay the love i have for her, but the moment i first laid my daughter on my chest. Thats when i knew what the deepest, purest real love is. It just hits on another level
Real love is sharing your Wi-Fi password without hesitation

I have heard that it is unconditional.
it’s a funny question
Like warm apple pie, if I recall correctly
Safe, and comfortable. I can be myself at all time without fear of judgement. So drawn to him I felt like I’ve known him forever from day 1.
i thought i had found real love at first it felt safe and calm turned out i was being played 🙂.
It feels like Christmas morning

Real love is unconditional
A sense of safety, inner peace, complete understanding and acceptance.
When both your mind and body naturally reach out for him/her
Feels like a nice apple pie baked in the summer just wafting it’s delicious smells throughout 5e neighborhood
When it’s good it’s great and when it’s shitty it’s hell

Love is home when you’re homesick.
Some things you’ll feel are, wanted, safe, comfortable, and don’t need anything else just them.
It feels like when you have true peace.

Warmth from the inside. Genuine care and appreciation. “US” as a unit in our own world.
Feels like someones existence completes you
Following so I can go back and read the comments 🥺
All this peace and secure shit comes with tons of expectations and fights. You ever seen that fight scene from the notebook? Its kinda like that.
Feeling safe, peaceful but also tingling with energy from the connection.
Food poisoning
Look in the mirror. 🥰🫶🏼
Imma ask my dog
Love is a next level feeling that most people can’t interpret properly
Intoxicating

Honestly? Real love feels like being able to breathe deeper. Like you’re not trying too hard, you’re just good enough exactly how you are
Personally, it’s the biggest dream/nightmare u will ever have. U will love someone so much but the fear will elevate with that love due to u not wanting to lose them. The more u love the more u get hurt in the end, it’s inevitable wether it’s from sickness or natural causes or murder. U will experience beautiful moments it will feel as if ur so safe and comfortable until the inevitable happen and now ur in the biggest nightmare to ever exist. A living nightmare.

peaceful but intense. home
Like you’ve known the person your whole life, everything feels smooth and easy.
After being neglected and abused by countless people throughout my life, I feel like a human for the first time.
GOD!
The feeling you are more together then alone. Blind trust and knowing it will all be okay as long as you are together. Would literally take a bullet for her so she can live to raise our kids.
It feels like going home.
It feels like a lot of things .. it’s like floating, it feels safe and secure yet exciting and warm. Your mind is finally resting easy and there’s not a single day you can imagine without them.
Safe. Peaceful
For me, its safety. I can be me and not fear a scathing rant or beating. Low bar, I know, but its all I can really hope for at this point.
The absence of worry. Completed comfort in another person
Like a quiet morning in your heart.
(This line comes from a poem I wrote my partner when we first fell in love) 💜
Like all your broken pieces are glued together.
It feels like an overflow of joy inside of oneself that spills into others.
