People often say that there are different ways to know when you are in love. How did you know when you finally fell? Was it the way your heart raced? Did your stomach get the "butterflies?" What made you realize you were in love? Did it happen over a period of time, or did it just hit you all of a sudden?

I knew that I was in love by the way I felt sad when I had to be apart from my hubby when we were dating. After several weeks--yes weeks of dating I knew we were in love by the way we looked at each other and how he made me feel inside. I knew it was love when I realized that I never thought about any other guys but him.

Great point... I knew when everyone else kind of faded away and other men no longer mattered at all, among other things.

I hope that someday you figure it out! It can be many different things, and I believe that it is individual for each person. When you are in love, you will know. Thanks for your response.

I knew it when I met my husband online. We met in Yahoo Chat room. He was a frequent traveller and interested in foreign cultures, so he went from one chat room to another for chatting. I liked him at first, then we kept extensive communications, e-mails, photos, calls etc I would be worried and upset if I didn't see his e-mails or heard from him in 2 days. That's when I know that I fell in love.
I was 24 and never had this feeling before with anyone else. We got married a year later and have been married for 6 yrs now. No, no butterflies and no racing.
