What's Love Got to Do With It?

Honestly, a lot. Love is an important part of the human experience. There are tons of different ways to love people. For example, the way we would love a family member isn’t the same way we would feel love for a romantic partner. In the past, romantic love was mainly discussed by writers and centered in many well-known love stories.

Research suggests that the hormone oxytocin, AKA “the hormone of love,” can have an effect on social behaviors. There’s also some evidence to suggest that the culture we grow up in can determine the way we view love and how we act in romantic relationships. Still, we’re all individuals who bring personal experiences into love and relationships.

How Do I Know I'm in Love?

Although researchers have identified common emotions associated with love, the feelings of love aren't exactly one-size-fits-all. Here are some signs you may be falling in love with a romantic interest:

• You don’t want to date anyone else! Chances are, you'd rather use your time and energy to focus on the person you have feelings for.
• You try to get through disagreements peacefully because you want to maintain the relationship and don’t want to hurt the other person.
• You care about this person’s needs, interests, and desires as much as you care about your own.
• You feel grateful to have them in your life.
• Your feelings for them are consistent and just keep getting stronger.
• You’re interested in conversation and emotional connection—it's not just about the physical.
• You see them in your future plans.
• You can have a disagreement, and your feelings toward them don’t change.
• You enjoy their company and look forward to doing the little things, even grocery shopping, with them.
