tigressA Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 I was with a couple of my friends yesterday and while we hadn't seen each other for a few months, they both said, "You're totally glowing. You look like you're in love." I said, "I don't think I am, yet (they know about my BF)." They said, "Oh, you are. It's all over your face." Is there a vibe or a certain look that people have when they're in love? What are some signs of it, in your opinion? Do you feel you look or act different when you're in love?
Gallaxia Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 There's got to be. I'm getting the same thing too. I find that more guys are approaching. Where were they before? :lol: I'm tempted to say it's pheromones but what if it's also online? So maybe it's a "vibe" Of some kind given off.
Author tigressA Posted September 21, 2010 Author Posted September 21, 2010 Yeah, it's funny when that happens that you get more attention from the opposite sex, but you don't need or want that attention since you already have someone. I can't say I'm getting attention like that, but pretty much everyone who's seen me/talked with me since my BF and I became official has said something about how different I look and act.
Gallaxia Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 I think it's because it comes from a place of happiness. Like the pilot light's back on.
In The Green Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 I totally agree! This new guy has me glowing from head to toe lately and now all the guys are coming out of the woodwork. So funny. I suppose its a good reminder for when one is single again to keep that in love with life glow. People are attracted to that positive energy.
make me believe Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 People (strangers) say that to me a lot when I'm WITH my boyfriend ("you two look so in love!" & other similar comments), but no one has ever said it when I was by myself (even though I'm just as in love with him then too ). You probably just look really happy/giddy and are giving off positive vibes.
espec10001 Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Ahh love. Quite the paradox, is it not? We feel we are rising when in it, yet we're "falling" at the same time! The components of romantic love are much like drugs. The steady or quick rising to the love plateau, when the warmth and bonding cannot possibly become any more intense. But like any high you reach a plateau, and then steadily or quickly come down. Or you can maintain steady doses of romantic love in a medicinal fashion. Not too much at once, but in moderation.
Gold Pile Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Your body is producing pleasure "chemicals" stimulated by sex and emotional bonding. I'm over simplifying and short on details, but that IS whats happening.
Sphere Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Common side effects of the "Honeymoon phase", it was pass soon enough, so enjoy it while it lasts.
Citizen Erased Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 It's that you're happy. I've been getting the same thing since I've been with Pyro.
Author tigressA Posted September 21, 2010 Author Posted September 21, 2010 (edited) I feel really different this time around. In past relationships I would be insanely giddy for the first month or two, then things would kind of...crash and feel boring. I had the giddiness for a couple of days in this relationship, but not anymore. It's like it's been replaced with this...contentment. Inner peace. Some of my friends did say that I seem much more laid-back, etc, which is something I don't think I've ever heard about myself. It's a new feeling, and I like it a lot. Perhaps this is what being in love is for me. Edited September 21, 2010 by tigressA
