This morning between not being able to sleep well and waking up to my other appartment mates alarm I was thinking. Note this doesn't happen very often. lol And I realized how in love with my partner I am. My right arm going numb because it's the easiest way to sleep with my parnter next to me. And she was leaning against me with her back to me and I really had to go to the bathroom and I just didn't care. I just didn't want to disturb her because she sleeps so comfortablely like that.
What about you guys? What made you realize how far you've fallen for that special someone?

I can just imagine how mentally taxing it was trying to hold it back for her. I don't think love is the right word for what you felt at that moment. You care for others because you also need to be cared for. It could be random, but when you're with somebody who's willing to give everything for you, you can't help but develop a soft spot for her. But when things go awry and you start picking on each other, I don't think you want to call it falling out of love. It's the drama that gets me. I care for others because they care for me, or that I like them well enough to see them still breathing. I care because I care. Love is too ephemeral and fickle a word to describe what one feels. One has to be consistent, if a little freakish.

Aww how sweet. I really wish my husband and I could sleep like that, but he works nights and even when he's home we just don't sleep well cuddled up like that. He's claustrophobic and stuff. *sighs*
I think a lot of the time I realize how in love I am with him when I see him with our son. I look at the two of them together and think "That is the most beautiful sight in the world." Also when we talk about when we first got together, and what a hard time that was, I realize how in love with him I am because of the kindness he has shown me, and how he helped me when no one else was willing to do so.

I know the feeling. Within our first year of dating my partner and I almost split because of a stupid mistake I made. The beginning of the second year wasn't any better. At the end of that year and this year we've become closer than ever.
I can't help but watch her sleep in the morning and think how lucky I am. To watch her work with kids to is amazing. She wants to be a preschool teacher and has since high school. I actually can't wait to have a few of our own. She'll make an amazing mother.

Love is a very strange feeling created by God Himself and inculcated in us humans as well as all the earthy beings. Its quite strange in the manner that it makes you do things and feel things that you would have never thought was possible.
It so mesmarizes mind that even the biggest pain and discomfort seems pleasing. There had been times that I have faced the same. Actually I am in a LDR( Long Distance Relationship) and me and my partner talk a lot over the phone. Sometimes it so happens that I may have had a very tough and tiring day, but I still can't rest without hearing her. Though I may not even be having the strength to even stand, but I walk out quite a long distance while just talking to her and also to get my phone recharged so that it doesn't cut in between. She herself sometimes goes off limit while talking to me.
I really can't explain what it is, but when I am speaking to her I am just infused and filled with some magical energy, with help of which I can even walk kilometers in my most tired states, but when the phone cuts I can't even stand straight.It really amzes me sometimes.
Any ways there are yet too many out of world thing that we have done for each other and everytime making ourselves feel how much we are in LOVE
Take Care
May GOD Bless YOU

I guess what made me realize how in love with my boyfriend I am is the fact that I have a hard time sleeping when I know that he is not laying right beside me.

I find love to be risky. One minute you are feeling really good the next minute you end up feeling really sad. There is a risk of getting hurt. I know that love can turn some people crazy. I find it amazing that two people can be in love with each other instead of only one person is in love with one person but the other isn't. Is love a coincidence?

Hmmmm, love is a many splendid thing. Its something that have been there for ages because of love. There exists the world and people coz God made us out of His great love for all of us.
Its also one thing that makes it all so complex and yet its a single word with vast meanings and different interpretations for each individual. SOme have bad and great expereinces about love and some are just heart broken but still goes on to live and love another.
I have been one of the many who call myself in love with the thought of falling in love only and it was before. It was I guess its like a roller coaster ride that was not so enjoyable.ANd now im glad its love and im very much inlove with my boyfriend. He was some one that I prayed for and God gave him to me, he is the answer to my prayers. And I just pray that it will be him that i will grow old with.

The way you have put it there I even thought its my fiancee writing. He does the same thing to me, he even fans me when its too hot and am sweating in my sleep. We fall in love for each other every day and as you know its the little things that counts. When am not feeling well he baths me, makes my hair, brushes my teeth and I get better.
