How To Tell You’re Truly In Love

This article was orginially posted on www.iamnotyourmother.com

There is always the typical list of ways to tell you’re in love. Such as the butterflies in your stomach, the fact that you want to be with them 24/7, and the way it feels to kiss their lips.

GAG.

That’s not “love.” That’s called “like” or something.

True love goes way beyond that. WAY WAY WAY beyond that. Love is a point where you thought you would never be with that person. And here’s how to tell if you’ve reached that point:

1) You Don’t Share Your Food

There is always the typical conversation when at places that serves food. It goes a little like this:

Boy: “Hey babe, I’m going inside to get a drink, do you want anything?”

Girl: “No.”

Boy: “Are you sure?”

Girl: “Yes.”

And then the boy comes back and the girl grabs for his drink.

If this happens to you and you don’t give your significant other the dirtiest look ever right before telling them to go get their own, then honey, you’re NOT in love.

2) You Fart In Front of Each Other

Farting during the beginning of the relationship is probably the most awkward thing ever. But once you fall in love, farting basically becomes the ultimate competition that never ends.

3) You Pop Each Other’s Zits

Sometimes the only thing that can pop that big ass zit is true love. Who knew?

4) Shaving Is No Longer Necessary

Whenever two people start dating, usually legs, beards, arm pits, and a little something else (if you know what I mean) gets shaved. It’s basically a way of showing that you’re trying your best to look good for them. But once it starts getting serious, there’s no need to look good for them. They already know that you love them. Even if you look like a gorilla.

5) “If you loved me you would…”

If someone loves you, you’re not afraid to take advantage of it. So when you’re lazy, you’ll find yourself saying something along the lines of “If you loved me you would go get me some food.”

And if they love you back, they’ll probably just give you a weird look because there’s no way they’re getting off the couch.

6) You Have A Long List of Ways to Hurt Them

What? You think love is all hearts and kittens? LOL.

7) If There Is Anything Wrong With Your Body, Your Significant Other Is The First To Know

Uh-oh. You’re leaking somewhere that shouldn’t be leaking? Good thing your boyfriend knows your entire health record. Actually, chances are, your significant other probably knows more about your health than your doctor does.

8) Bursting Out In Song Is Normal

Someone who doesn’t love you would ask you “Why are you singing about cats?”

But someone who DOES love you would start singing along with you.

See the difference?

9) Anything Cold Must Touch Them

Girlfriend’s Cold Feet + Boyfriend’s Back = Never gets old.

Boyfriend’s Cold Beer + Girlfriend’s Neck = Highlight of the day.

10) Something Sexual Will Be Included In 90% of Your Conversations

Because anything can be referenced back to sex. Anything.

11) The Bathroom Is No Longer Private

If you’re in love, the bathroom door isn’t going to keep you apart. You will still have conversations while on the toilet, wether they’re in the room or not.

12) Surprise Tongue

When you kiss, chances are he will randomly do something with his tongue that he’s not suppose to. It could be that he licks you, or he puts his tongue in your mouth to watch your face give that “ew that felt like a slug” look. That’s normal.

13) You Will High Five About Stupid Stuff

OMG there’s a new season of The Big Bang Theory on tonight? HIGH FIVE!

OMG M&Ms are on sale? HIGH FIVE!

OMG you pooped? HIGH FIVE!

14) Random Naked Stuff

Sex is not the only thing lovers do together while being naked. Watching movies… cooking… yoga. Once you’re in love, anything can be done naked.

15) You Will Become Each Other’s Personal Napkins

There are two ways to get those chip crumbs off your fingers: They lick them off, or you wipe them off (on their clothes of course).

16) You Will Throw Away There Dirty Tissues

They’re sick, which means they’re sure as hell not going to get up to throw them away. They should be lucky you love them.

17) You Play Nice

You know what it takes to get them on your good side.

And it usually ends with them asking “What do you want?” (because what couple actually acts nice to each other on a normal basis?)

18) You Send Them Weird Pictures

Tons of people sext now-a-days, but sending a picture of your daily dump? Now that’s true love.
