What does it mean to you to “have feelings for someone” (PLEASE tell me what it means to YOU 😅🙏🏼) & why would YOU say that to someone?


Oh.. I had an answer right away lol
gonna cover each aspect, to my awareness.
feelings can be:
• Feelings Of Need or Dependency on a person:
When he/ she meets them, he/ she feels like they won’t be ‘complete/ safe’ without them. It’s doable when they both admit they ‘need’ and find each other ‘useful.’ It’s bad when it’s one-sided dependency, or if they are both dependent in ways, where they should actually be independent to thrive, always.
• Feelings Of Envy: when the person just wants what you have so they try to “own” you and feel as if your qualities are automatically theirs, or your attention/ spotlight from others, is theirs (also don’t worry this is rare and usually FAIRLY easy to spot; Aretha Franklin is an example of that as well as Whitney Houston, and a few notable men in innovative history; not sure if Einstein was one of them, but either way, Einstein was a great dude, lol).
• Feelings Of Lust:
(purely physiological and biological characateristics/ feelings of ‘desire’ [which can be somewhat uncontrollable at times] for them based only, or mostly, on appearance
• Feelings Of Anxiety-
this is a type of “crushing” where you feel like you do everything wrong around them, or don’t deserve them, so when they accept you, you can be timid and it takes a longgg time for you to actually be yourself. It’s the hardest to build substance on a relationship like this, unless the ‘crushee’ is patient and understands the state of the crushing ‘crusher’ lol
• Feelings Of Connection or Compatibility:
you resonate mentally and/ or have an understanding and enjoyment, exciting, or pleasant time with them. They reciprocate your level of excitement and it never seems to burn out, or ever go away. You both can have similar perspectives which helps in communication and lifestyle, or you both can share similar insterests: careers/ hobbies which let you both actually live your two individual lives side by side each other. ☝️☝️ Pals like no other. 👩❤️👨👫
~ The last feeling mentioned is the one most should strive for, but the previous ones are also very possible factors/ outcomes when dating or doing hook ups in the fast lane.
Always be aware of how you feel and through it all be patient with yourself and willing to bring the actual best for you both. If that means leaving on a good note, 📝 then do so.
(When I say ‘you,’ it’s not just you Viviant, it’s the general ‘you’ of humanity. It’s myself just the same).
Hope this helps though, best of all on your journeys. 😊👐
I definitely aspire for more 😂😭 I’m a selfish one, I can admit lol!
But we are definitely like kindred sisters, you certainly have just a little more than intelligence! Intelligence is an understatement for you. Literally ‘Top Tier’ Vivant 😄😊👐💕✨
Thanks for the compliment though. Stop cutting onions alright! I’m gonna report you lol jk 😂😭

Omg 😭😭😭🤧💕✨
🤣.. this would depend on my feelings for that person.
Example A
I have strong feelings for you (to not punch you in the face, coz you’re hitting on every nerve of my being)
Example B
I have strong feelings for you (I want you, I love you, I like you too much, I’m obsessed with you)
🤣 there you go…
hope it helps 😂
Did someone say this to you? You gotta judge their facial expression when they say this and then you gauge which one of the two scenarios 🤣
I voted 'C'. I don't recall ever saying anything like that, though. It's sound manipulative.
I wouldn't date someone if I wasn't physically attracted to them. My goal was to find a steady sexual partner. But I wouldn't have sex with them unless we liked each other enough to be in an exclusive relationship, hang out together, chat, go places, do things, and enjoy each other's company. So if we liked each other enough for that (infatuation), there's no reason to look all cow-eyed at her and say "I have 'feelings' for you". That almost sounds like a sales pitch. That's almost the same as saying "I love you." And I don't say that unless I'm sure.
What does "I have feelings for you mean? What feelings? Be specific.
I've said "I really like you" and other complimentary things many times.
When I have feelings for somebody it's because it's an inner energy emotion we could be walking across the street from each other and I will feel that energy from across the street and I will look around me to find out where it's coming from because I want to know why I feel that energy why I can feel that person from across the room or across the street it's just like if we were to chat on here and I could feel you it would be because of your energy when somebody has feelings towards you it's because they feel who you are on the inside they can feel exactly how beautiful your heart is or your confidence or how smart you are or how sexy you are you can just feel that energy of that whole person is beautiful thing

In the context of dating, "I have feelings for you" means that I feel affection for you, I always enjoy being with you, I am physically attracted to you, and I want to have your babies.
If I gave you a chuckle, then I have received my reward for today!
Not attraction nor caring about her, I've attracted and been attracted to girls and have cared and have been cared for by girls who I never "had feelings for", I'd say it's the constant contact with them then at one point I start checking if they're online and why didn't they text me and should I text them or even worse if I start getting jealous over her, yea "I have feelings for you" alright, when I start feeling possessive or attached maybe, I don't know if that sounds toxic but it is what it is
It means i am stupid that i am deeply in love with you even after knowing you would never feel the same for me in a thousand years and you probably friendzoned me but i still love you and i cannot change my feelings for you and suffer internally and eternally by being side of you.
Watching you right infront of my eyes and can't do anything about it you do sense it but you ain't gonna say or talk anything about it..
Yet ask me for advice like how to be close to that new person and i have to see you making move on that guy lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣
True story 😸
Um, I've never used that phrase because it's a bit confusing.
If I like someone I say I like you. If I love someone I say I love you.
It's not that hard to use the exact phrases. Really.
Because when you say I have feelings for you, there's a 150% chance that a question will pop into your head. What exactly does that mean?
Make it simpler. Be on point. Use the phrases. There's a phrase for every feeling))
Makes things less complicated and smooth.
If I dislike someone... well, I won't go and say hey I dislike you, obviously... I'll just cut that person out. That's it )))
I agree 💯 I could not agree more ooo there’s something really shifty if you bring up feelings but won’t say the feeling. Don’t bring it up if you don’t want to talk about it. I really dislike it when people that act as if guru are giving info when it really just generates more confusion.
to me personally... if I ever say something like this, the feeling is only one, and that is love...
and the only reason I'd say it is because I'd indeed be in love with that someone, and that only happens when we're both in love, with each other...
so it is usually a confirmation, kind of making it "official" lol
right, that's why I mentioned "if I ever say something like this"
which I rarely or never did... however, it can be about the people involved and their personalities, they might be more shy, more of introverts, or lack experience... it can even be a way to be more playful and they just don't want to say it right away... lol
not everyone is as direct or assertive, or confident and all that... they could also be unsure, or confused because of the moments or other things they are going through on their own or with each other
as an example, with my second girlfriend... we were kind of "playing games" a bit, at the start, and none of us would tell each other how we really felt about things, lmao... it was a little immature to be honest, for us being 20 and 19 of age
it even caused a little friction... lol
I sure did once, but learned that lesson... lmao
never again
If *I* say that, it means I have ROMANTIC feelings for her, not just sexual ones. I suspect that's the norm, but there is certainly going to be a good-sized minority of men who will say such things and not mean them that way. Some of them are just outright lying in order to get laid, and others either use language sloppily/incorrectly or just can't decode how they feel correctly and say the wrong thing.
Such an expression can be euphemism for some people, but the meaning I would extract in most cases is some sort of affinity not reaching the level of "love" yet. Whether there is also an implicit clause of sex in it may depend on the couple involved in a particular case, but I don't see that as an integral part of having feelings for someone.
It means I like them in a romantic way. In other words, more than just a friend.
It's more personal than "attracted to". It could mean liking in a romantic way, or it could be a stronger love. I think saying "feelings" when it's love is kind of downplaying it, almost a like euphemism.
It’s an odd thing to say in any situation my guess is to downplay deeper feelings or maintain elusiveness if the feelings are not so deep 😂
It’s true for myseif what it means to have them compared to say I have them is very differnt. I wouldn’t say that, I’d say what I actually felt but certainly I can feel it. usually before I sort out what the feelings are 😊
Well, saying you have feelings is kind of a way to ease into it without coming on too strong. Timing is a delicate balance. Too slow and the other person thinks you aren't interested. Too fast and it scares them away.
To me, it means I am getting a crush on them. Smash or no smash. I am developing feelings a little more than friendship. Did someone say this to you? Also, be careful who you say it to. There was a guy that said it to another to just annoy him. The other guy said "I'll try anything once." Backfired. Lol
It means you want to smash and then stick around after and talk as you cuddle, she could lay on top as you both look into each other’s eyes and you both can feel all his cum drip out of the girl and use it as a bonding experience…being dirty and completely relaxed with each other.
maybe something like this.
Means you care about that person and want the best for them , in most cases it means they want you to want them as well without coming off to creepy lol , if i tell a girl I have feelings for her I am basically saying I want you to be in my arms and I will do my best to protect you
It's far more simplistic than that.
It's a person that induces thoughts of a future in your head, you feel the need to be seen by that person the way you see them and become their #1 as they are yours.
Love. Is a very selfish concept.
Really? You think so? I always thought love is what you choose to do and bring in love is all full of your own feelings. tho honestly I don't know everyone uses love differently and often they just mean I feel so good 😂
What an exquisite description. Haha I should know to expect it I don’t think you can be shallow if you tried. Impatient possibly but that’s a false positive to shallow 😛
I wonder how much of this is cultural. And How much your upbringing, wonder what you would think of people in this country.
Do you notice a difference in depth between your original hometown and where you work now?
I used to see love somewhat like you do. This boyhood outlook on it definitely was to my own detriment.
Back home I would fall in love and beat myself up thinking about why my love isn't triggering love in the other person and when that person got with someone else I would be destroyed.
It was a lesson learned the hardest way possible, love is selfish.
Your love will never trigger love only what you represent as a person.
Meaning when you meet someone they either see a person they wanna share adventures with or not.
And so in order to attract what you like you have to become what you like, and every day I take one more step towards being that person and every day I attract more and more people which is the natural outcome.
I'm far from having all the answers but what I saw is my current outlook on love is working far better than my old one.
I think there was a miscommunication
I never meant to imply I thought loving someone was would cause someone to love you back. I’d be the last person to say that 😂
and if you asked me that I’d say probably it may have the opposite affect with many people... I meant the act of loving someone is not selfish. I Being in love pretty much is and that’s the feeling that seems to make people want to try. And whether someone falls in love is yeah partly if they are looking for someone like you but it’s also so many things that they are re most likely neither aware of nor in control of.
I used to think being like someone I intentionally or not was abuse precursor now, I don't know I think we just be the person we most want to be and do the best we can to be co rent with who we are be kind to others without being “too kind” throw the Chips up and they land wherever. People are fickle af …until they are ready.
Ok nvm I just re read your original comment and yeah I get you. I don’t think I disagree. Not entirely I guess it really derived in the maturity level bc some people love is desire for others it basically an act of service lol hopefully people find a middle ground but I definitely don’t think loving another produces love. People say this but I’ve never seen it and I don’t believe it. Not romantic love anyhow friendship possibly.
I wanted to vote for I feel comfortable around them and want to continue to, but my finger slipped and I taped on 'other' option
I have feelings for you means exactly what I mean either I feel sons way about you feel like I like you like I want to be with you a little jealous if somebody comes near you
Thanks Only be concerned if they say I feel some type away about you meaning they don’t know what they feel
Feelings for someone and telling them means I want to marry them at least. What do you mean smash? Like intimacy. Well I like holding hands with them and hug but not do adult stuff till marriage.
Voted B skyscrapper girl, you know that before marriage there is no smash dash thing 🤣🤣
The feelings might be love or happiness or having fun and being comfortable with a person or it might be all of these!
Feelings and emotions are the gifts of god to us which makes us unique and special...
Also they give meaning to everything in our lives, even sex without emotions worth nothing, at least for me that's how it is...
Good to hear skyscrapper girl "queen of the bumble bees" 😂 🐝
B. The first time I really had "feelings" was back in 2003 when my girlfriend gave me a key to her apartment. That level of trust far exceeded the fuckins we had going on at that time. It was almost perfect.
To let you know that I am interested beyond friendship
Lol I'm not offended by the typo. And I think it's nice that your phone was thinking about Jesus. 😅😂
Meanwhile... lol, What is the difference between Option 5 and Option 7?
@VIVANT Oh; I see. Okay, so I think I understand EXACTLY what you're saying, because I have been in love before but I didn't feel anything overtly sexual At All. Yes, the physical attraction was there at the beginning (though the Sexual part was discreetly set aside, as civilized people do do 😇 ); but once it became love, then both the physical and the sexual took a back seat completely.
by the way, the "feelings" for me mean that I am attracted to them and I like them and I want to be around them and I want to spend time with them and I want to talk to them and I want to look at their beautiful face, AND I want them to Like ME! 😬
Which part? And how?
The fact that you put smash on pretty much all of them 🤣
Sorry Vivant there's nothing good to come of answering this.
Best case scenario a guy shares Feelings and gets ridiculed.
Worst case a guy shares Feelings and get manipulated.
Sorry it's lose / lose.
Not here I never ridicule feelings 🙏🏼
Well you're a rare contradiction then.
You can ‘‘em me your answer if you’re more comfortable. Def no judgement 😊😊
It generally means you are attracted to that person and are interested in persuing a possible relationship
And I voted E
I means I feel attracted to her, but may or may not be in love.
I would rather say “I find you very attractive,” or “I’m infatuated with you,” than “I have feelings for you.” There are all kinds of feelings. I also think it’s important to be able to say “I love you,” in an unambiguous way. I find a lot of people have trouble being clear about it.
I means I need to check my emotions against the logic of the situation and see if it works both ways.
its what you feel in the very beginning where you are interested in someone and are fine escalating things with them beyond just a friendship
could be if my feelings developed that way after a few years of knowing them.
Sorry. I don't have feelings to anyone In my life. So don't know. My mind work 24×7 so my heart are always on sleeping mode. So this feelings & emotions are useless things.
Your welcome vivant...
I hope you're doing good now. You were sick from last few days I noticed.
Please take care of yourself vivant... don't be careless just because fever gone. You're still feeling weak. Be careful next few days vivant. 🙏
Lol ohk.
It means I have a crush on them and I probably want to fuck down the line.
I can't remember the last time I experienced this.
I appreciate the optimism but I don't have the energy left for the brutality of a relationship.
You didn’t mean to type Jesus yeah you did it’s hilarious 😂 but Intentional just look at the keyboard Jesus and men are No where close to each other on the keyboard ⌨️
😆 but it’s just my dick gets hard if I have Feelings.
No I don’t wanna smash 💥 just because I have a Boner having a Boner could happen even if I don’t like the girl like if a Girl calls me Babe or baby like when
I’m at Store sometimes girls call me baby or babe
That can cause a Boner
Answer my Question then I’ll answer yours.
Why are You females so Curious?
It means I care about them deeply, want to know more about them, spend as much time with them as I can, and potentially have a future with them <3
Whenever I say that it means I'm in love with the person and I want to be with them. But I might be getting this wrong.
Well to me it means I really enjoy being with them , I feel safe and warm near them, and I might or might not feel aroused with them.
It means I love them
Having feelings for someone can lead to wanting to be with them sexually, but it doesn’t always have to.
Could mean C, D, E or G.
When I like her and can't of anything else but her for quite a while.
love and effection
it's true
