How Do You Know..?

My very best friend McKenzie asked me "How do you know when you're in love?" And I REALLY wanted a good answer. So... I put a lot of thought in it, became super self- centered, thought about my situation and told her the following:

"Wow... I had to think about that for a minute. I think it's when you can have a legitimate explanation for what you feel, but you couldn't explain your feelings to save your life. When you are willing to do things you never thought of before because it's something your partner likes to do. When you decide that nothing from your past or his will matter anymore and all that matters is living in the moment with him. When you can do nothing at all, but you're still happy just because you are together. You're willing to risk being yourself and you don't worry about what they're going to think. When you are apart, no matter for how long or how far apart you are, it feels as if a part of you is missing...."

So... that's the best I got. To all of you lovers out there. And to my lover. <33333
