It's just something you feel for yourself. It's something you can't quite explain to anyone else that well... and you just find yourself being frustrated over ... the simplest of things? You can't stop thinking about them. You smile at the sound of their name.... Other stuff.
Lols I dunno. All I know is that it's different for everyone when it comes to realizing they like someone (:

I use to be single for the pass 21 years, yes, I have crushes, but nothing serious.

yet, when I met my current boyfriend, I knew it was love as there is a wawrm feeling that envelopes my body at the thought of him :loves:

[Dynames]

Here's a good analogy:

Being in love is like peeing in your pants: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm fuzzy feeling that it brings.

On a more serious note, in order to answer the question, you would need to define each one. 'Having feelings for somebody' might simply be caring for them. 'Liking' someone typically refers to whether or not you can bear their presence, and 'like liking' someone means that you would go out with them. Love is, more often than not, used to describe an 'intense feeling of passion' for someone.

So, how do you realize that you love/like/have feelings for somebody? I'm sure it's been said many times before, but here it is again: only you will know. No one can tell you that you're in love before you realize it yourself (because if they do, it's simply a prediction).

The topic is definitely not useless

Hmm... for me, its...

*when you find his/her mistakes as something that makes you love him/her more(hence, you're ready to accept the person's mistakes no matter how big it is)
*when there's never a day that you haven't thought of him/her(terror professors  are exceptions! lol)
*when you have already had several sweet dreams with him/her in it
*when you find everything that the person does as something cute that you want to squish him/her
*when you feel a different kind of uneasiness/a unique feeling of being at ease when you're with that person
*when during the times that your behind that person there's something inside you that makes you want to suddenly hug the person!
*when you say to yourself that you wanna protect the person no matter what happens
*and of course, its when you're hurt once you see the person get closer to other people in an intimate way..

but ultimately, these are only descriptions of persons who are "in love". It's still you who can determine if you're in love or not. Your bitchiness when seeing other girls flirt with the guy you're close with can be only because of mere possessiveness or it can also be because you're afraid of losing that guy to some other girl because he's the person you want to be with in the future.

Like a plant?  Rooting to the ground?

[Rzar]

^ Root = Aussie slang for doing it

When I get stupid nervous if I pass them. Even if they wouldn't even look at me

You realize it once you start stalking that person, looking for where they live and smelling their hair when you pass by them in a hallway.  Or when you try to look for their myspace and hacking their email to learn more about them.

Well, that's what I do.  

haha stalker love ftw

Sounds like a lot of people mix being in love and just crushing. I have no idea what love is as I don't think I've ever been in love -I'm sorta skeptical towards love anyway- but I do believe crushing is nowhere near true love.

Now question is how do we know when it's love and not a crush?

I love all your answers, so different
Keep them coming ♥

Crushes typically mean you want to be with that person NOW. Love means for the rest of your life. If you see that person in your distant future, then it's love.

[v_lynx]

for me love is indescribable.. we just feel it..

[Naruta-chan]

The first step to knowing if you like somebody or not
is DENIAL lol

it happened with my first and second crush

by then I'm used to acknowledging those feelings


so just ask yourself this... do u treat this person differently than others?
are u more mean or nice toward this person?

(even if you're mean toward this person, u might like him/her)


just pay close attention to your feelings, and u'll know.



u'll be finding that you're uncomfortable when you don't see that person
or if you make a mistake you care a lot about what the other person thinks



it's a great feeling


but also devastating at the same time if this is all in your head

and by the time u realize that you really like him
u start to ponder if he likes u too

*sigh*


GL!

[*c o n v e r s e]

1. when you can't stop thinking about him/her.
2. you're just attracted to the person.
3. you get really curious about their hobbies, interests, etc.

but for me, i just.. iuno XD
i just know, in a way.
like it just happens and i realize it.
