Love: Out of Love & Questions


Falling in love with someone can be exciting and filled with uncertainty. Yet, feeling motivated to get to know someone with curiosity, respect, and with joy can often make you fall out of love with them.

The dates might be thrilling, boisterous, or simply fun but some things might be lacking in the relationship. Often this might happen unexpectedly, and you do not realize it until your date mentions it. 


However, falling in love is a continuous process between both of you. It is consistent and each other dedicates time to one another. Yet, infatuation can often confuse one to believe it is love. If it is an intense desire and a physical attraction without looking at your date's imperfections; You might be feeling infatuation and not love. Love goes beyond physical attraction and makes oneself see their imperfections, qualities, and similarities in thoughts between both of you.

Additionally, taking one day at a time to get to know each other better with mutual respect. Falling in love is a strong feeling that develops overtime.
