Are you in love?
34 Years and Still in Love
How do you know if it is true love or simple infatuation? How do you know if that “goose-bump” feeling is real or not?
It is not a “falling in love” as much as it is a growing in love.
Falling in love may be a single emotion, but that single emotion can cause so many hormonal, chemical and emotional changes that it’s almost unbelievable.
However, evolution and the hormone oxytocin have found ways to make those who truly are in love fall in love forever.
It has created stages, where each experience of falling in or out of love is a process of falling in love.
Stage 1 – Appreciation
Stage 2 – Infatuation
Stage 3 – Attraction
Stage 4 – Impression
Stage 5 – Conviction
Stage 6 – Reaffirmation
Stage 7 – Ready to love
Once you understand where you are in the stage of love, you can make your steps more meaningful and purposeful toward building a happy future together.
