What falling in love feels like to you

Do people search for "what does it feel like to fall in love" in google and find this? Blows my mind the amount of necroposting I see happen now-a-days!

Well, falling in love can result in a person wandering around like a zombie - just a happy zombie.

There are less pleasant forms of madness. When you are very young, you won't appreciate the previous sentence.

I thought it was like butterflies .. either in stomach or heart, unfortunately, I cannot substantiate this claim through any love song..

This about sums up my 17 year old love life.

When my now-ex and I first met, he asked me if I'd ever been "in love". I told him that I thought I had been a couple of times, either that, or I'd experienced a couple of longish anxiety attacks.

The Bible explains what it feels like to fall in love, but I think that part is often misinterpreted.

It feels like someone reaching inside you and ripping out a rib - it feels okay at first as long as everything is happening real slow (in fact, you might think you're just getting tickled), but it's going to hurt eventually.

As a person that is currently in love i describe love as: missing that special person everyday, wanting to be with him constantly, constantly thinking about him throughout the day, having a smile from ear to ear when i recieve a text message or call from him, willing to do anything for that him (not always a good side effect of love), texting with him all day everday, loving the cologne that he wears, making plans for the future with him, wanting and trying to be the best possible person and lover for him, looking your best for him, never wanting to see him unhappy sad or upset, loving all the little things he does for me, the first person i think about when waking up in the morning. =D

"True, we love life, not because we are used to living, but because we are used to loving. There is always some madness in love, but there is also always some reason in madness."

~Friedrich Nietzsche

Love stinks. First they lie to you to get you to want them, then they dump you. "Oh look, someone else wants me, hadn't counted on that happening..bye".

It feels like anxiety, except it doesn't make me suicidal.

What? That's the best way I can describe it.

Its the adrenaline thats giving you the butterflies, anxiety, fear, excitement, and heart racing. You then follow up with a dopamine spike (pleasure), serotonin spike (fantasy), and reinforce with oxytocin and vasopressin after sex. You feel all pumped and reenergized, like a nice little Darwinian-Pavlov poodle.

Sex and love are a delusion created by your brain in order to justify its own existence and get high. And it all started with a damned kiss, when your brain analyzed the MHC in saliva and concluded that it wants variety in genetic offspring.
