Here is a list of things that can tell you if you are in love. Sometimes it is a very hard thing to know how you actually feel because you are afraid to be hurt. So you are also afraid to feel. To let yourself be vulnerable to anything. This list should be shared mutually between two people. It shouldn't be pushed upon the other person if they don't feel the same way. Whatever happens will happen. Love will find a way....
