8 Dreamy Signs You are Falling in Love

Ah, love! The very thought of the first time I fell in love brings forth a wave of cherished memories. Recognizing the signs that you’re falling in love can be a delightful yet peculiar sensation in life.

The experience of falling in love is deeply personal, as unique as each individual. While this uniqueness is beautiful, it can also create confusion when trying to decipher our own emotions. Comparing our experiences with others' can offer clarity, helping us discern if what we feel is indeed love.

Yet, it's essential to take a step back from others' experiences and examine our own. If uncertainty clouds your perception about falling in love, it's time to consider the signs indicating you're falling for someone.

While these signs are generally observed, there are scientifically backed indicators that can provide more assurance in confirming whether love has truly taken root.

# You want to touch and kiss them

Well, this may be seen as an obvious one. But it goes beyond just the physical attraction. When you touch and kiss someone, you release the “love hormone,” oxytocin, into your body. This makes the connection stronger between you and your partner.

# The time flies when you’re together

When you’re spending time with this person, it just flies. You’re not checking your phone or wondering when the date will be over. Time is irrelevant to you when you’re with them, and it’s why it goes by so quickly.

# You can’t stop staring at them

If there’s one thing your eyes are on, it’s them. Why wouldn’t you want to stare at the person you love? When you’re staring at them, you’re looking for more from there. You’re looking to see if they’re in your future.

# You can see your future with them

Oh yes, you’re in love. You’ve been thinking about where you will live, what the wedding is going to look like, and how life will be with this person. Your mind is already way ahead of you in the possible future.

# You’ve stopped doing your usual activities

You’ve dropped your usual activities to spend more time with this person. You crave them and feel that you need to spend time with them. You may skip your yoga class or un-enroll yourself out of the cooking course you wanted to take.

# You’re more optimistic than usual

You may see the glass half full, but you’re even more optimistic than usual. When you experience the signs you’re falling in love, your perspective of the world changes. You see things in a warmer light. This is due to the dopamine hit your body receives when you’re thinking about this person or spending time with them.

# They’re always on your mind

Your partner is always on your mind. When you’re at the store buying dinner, you think about what they would like to eat. If you’re at work, you’re wondering what they’re doing.

If you become preoccupied with them to the point where they’re all you think about, it’s one of those clear signs you’re falling in love with them.
