It means different things to different people. You'll know when the real thing happens. But a definition? An explanation? Not gonna happen.
A well-known 20th century philosopher named Oscar Hammerstein II had this to say, "Who can explain it? Who can tell you why? Fools give you reasons, wise men never try."
This is a pretty good broad picture of the process. (I'm not absolutely onboard with the other 7, but I still think they are useful.)
And what sealed the deal for me was when my now wife walked past a small jewelry box with a picture on the cover and remarked: "That's my favorite Renoir."
How can I tell if I love her?
The general consensus around these parts is that falling in love happens gradually, over time. Instead of one glorious moment with violins in the background, you cross a series of hurdles together - and with each one, you become a little more sure. Maybe you’re waiting for two hours because the restaurant overbooked and her easy-going, “who cares?” attitude gets you. Or her kindness to your family and friends seals the deal. “If there was any one time I knew I loved Julie, it was when I saw her interact with my son,” explains Jeff from Seattle. “She was so wonderful with him.” If you’re trying to figure out whether it's love you're feeling, here are 8 signs that those three little words might just be in order.

Don't confuse sexual arousal with love
You set them free !
Like you feel so awkward around them and you always love seeing them i guess lol ive only had one girlfriend sense the 4th grade
Don't confuse infatuation for love. Infatiation fades and it is usually that giddy, nervous feeling. Love is quieter and deeper. It is more of a feeling that you found a piece of you didn't know you were missing. Even though you may feel excited to see them you are also feel a bit of peace because you are again reunited with that missing piece.
