when can you say you are inlove?

He / She would daydream a lot than usual, flush red when the name of his / her beloved is mentioned or when the beloved is around the corner, become anxious when the beloved is near someplace, stare blankly on him / her, ask a lot about him / her, send a text or two, send flowers or chocolates, ask for a date, date a lot...com'on, ya know where all these lead to, right?!

are you really in love? or do you think that you are in love? there is a big difference between love and infatuation. some people cant tell the difference, thinking they are in love but really it is a deep infatuation. infatuation is instant desire - one set of glands calling to another. love is friendship that has caught fire. it takes roots and grows, one day at a time. infatuation is marked by a feeling of insecurity. you are excited and eager, but not genuinely happy. there are nagging doubts, unanswered question, little bits and pieces about your beloved that you would just as soon not examine too closely. it might spoil the dream. love is the quiet understanding and mature acceptance of imperfection. it is real. it gives you strength and grows beyond you - to bolster your beloved. you are warmedby their presence, even when they are away
