How long does it take you to fall in love?

I'd say a few days to a few weeks of dating. Falling in love is about finding aspects of a person that are so wonderful to you, that you want to cherish them. To me, it doesn't take me long to find the best aspects of a person and shorter still to find out if those things are compatible or not.

No, the hard part of relationships is staying in love/maintaining relationships. There are inevitably things you will find out about your partner that you dislike/disapprove or even hate, but if you value the person above even that, that's when you've got something special.

It takes at-least 5 months for lust to convert in to real LOVE and then 2 years in to crazy love. I am amazed by western standards and man that treats love as something love to fuck, hot and the whole bed thing. Love is actually more than it "You love to spend time with that person" love her smile, way of thinking, blushing and her habits. You love the soul and body but according to 21st century its 2sec LOVE TO FUCK
Real love will take time and maturity to understand and love that person.

sometimes I doubt if I've ever been "in love" but I know for sure I've loved two people very dearly and it took over 6 months for me to be comfortable saying that. and a good year to settle into the feeling and for it to mature into a deep rooted place in my heart

thank you

I never fell in love, so I don't know, maybe a few months or so depending on the guy.

I don't think there is a set time. I had many relationships in the past but never fell in love with any evern my longest one who was 3 years.

I've only fallen in love with the girl I'm with now. It was very peculiar. We met we started to talk about anything and everything and since day one we acted like a couple. We just kept talking and little by little we got attached to each other.

One day without saying anything we both knew we were a couple nobody asked "are we steady or whatever" we both just started saying "yeah we are together" next thing we knew things just kept falling into place with absolutely no effort. One day I started asking myself what I felt for her.

I never felt like that for a girl ever I made sure without a doubt that I was In love with her. Then I tried telling her for like a week and I couldn't I would start to shake and I just couldn't say it. One day I told her and when I was I was litterally shaking and having a panic attack. Note that this was in the span of like 2 and a half months which is insane. But it happened.

True love is when you think about him even if his not around you imagine him being with you (not sexually) , you picture him and you years from now , but true love only works , If the partner has the same feelings about you that you have for him. That can only work if you don't listen to friends. unless they lead a successful marriage life , I don;t see why people listen to others who have failed marriage's other then the fact of why it failed to begin with knowledge is power but beware to much will ruin your chances , Being pure is always the best way to go. does not mean (sexually) pure just pure at heart

Personally, I’m abstinent because I’m a 100% bonding woman. I believe in taking 3-4 years to know someone and build trust. Then in a spontaneous moment when it feels so right ( both single)... I will kiss him when I’m ready to show him that I am ready to share that intimacy with him. This is important detail. I’m not intimate with anyone. I’ve kissed 3 guys & hugged 8-10 people in my life. I know I’m ready to commit my entirety of love to him when I’m confident that I know him, good and bad. Everytime I think about him, instant butterflies, zero sex needed, I can’t think about anyone else... and after we decide it’s time to share a physical bonding experience with each other... it’s the minute I am underneath him & I am allowing myself to look up into his eyes, so vulnerably... and make genuine love to him and it’s what bonds me, officially. I faithfully believe that love like this deserves a lot of quality time.

Sight, with the right girl instantly. Personality, it depends on how many connections we have in a short period of time but I'd say personality maybe in one day but falling in love could take months it depends on how much you can learn about the person over time

[Ellie-V]

I don’t believe that I am capable of falling in love, and I don’t have the desire or longing for it so I doubt it’ll happen at all. But when/if I adopt a child (since I can’t give birth) I think I will fall in love instantly. But we’ll see, only time can tell.

[PoliceLivesMatter]

It can be a relatively short amount of time after interacting or talking with a woman. I have to interact with her, specifically talk to her to start having feelings of love. If I haven’t talked to her but she’s very attractive to me, then it’s usually only lust. It’s possible for me to only spend a short amount of time with a woman, talking, hanging out, or interacting with her in other ways for me to fall in love. It really depends on the woman and the content of our interactions.

Crushing might only take me a few minutes. I cannot count all the crushes I have had up to this point, but I wouldn't classify any of them as actually being in love.
Falling in love with a person because of who they are, how they act, ... took me just under two months, and it has only happened once.

[WitchsLove]

I dont fall in love easily.

But when I do fall someone worthy of falling in love with, maybe I fall quick? I don't know lol

Is it around 1 month considered quick? But I think 1 month was only infatuation and might have become real love at around 1 year and a half.

[Bruce_VVayne_]

Crushing is almost instant. There have been girls their smile, voice the way how she looked made me almost fall to her in the first time and I was excited to see her again.

Love requires time for me, the more I get to know her, I fancy or idealize if I like her character the more and a bond I have to her starts being greater. I always love someone as a human first for wanting her happiness rather than jumping into romance.

When you fall in love, time has no meaning - Two couples will get together, one will say we bonded and our connection grew stronger then fell in love , another couple will look back through rose coloured glasses and say it was love at first sight - It is not passionate lovemaking, fireworks blah blah, it is that moments silence you spend in someone's arms, it is when something amazing/bad happens and you wish that he/she was right there so you could tell them and they could hug or hold you.

[FatherJack]

Never , after my last marriage ( I dumped her ) I simply cannot get emotionally attached to any woman , I am detached by nature. FT working single dad , so cannot invest the required time , effort and money into dating anyway. Also , no woman wants a single dad and don't blame them either !

[SngBirdy]

Its like this. I very rarely fall in love, but when i do, it happens very quickly. Sometimes, seeing the person just a few times is already enough.

But you asked the question, so what about you?

[melanieeeB]

Don't know
Never happened, a crush a little bit of a flame but never love
I don't let myself get attached too much and also haven't met someone who was worth it

[Hurlyburly]

I can develop a crush/infatuation for someone fairly easy (like in 1-3 days) but it takes a long time for a crush to turn into love. I'd say at least half a year of relationship, probably more.

[DublinRollerGirl]

Hopefully not until you know the person very well and not in a short time. That usually leads to divorce. When people fall in love quickly they can fall out of love just as fast.

[LauraS345]

A crush? Instantly. Wanting to be exclusive? Maybe a month. "Love", though, the willingness to put someone else's emotional needs above my own? Around a year or more for me.

[wingattebaby16]

i fall in love (lust) after the first few dates...

Real love sneaks up on you.. then bammmm... you fall for him

[Anonymous]

Considering mine have never worked out I’m not sure I can classify it as a “true love”. Although, I got extremely attached (probably loved) and knew if I wanted to continue a relationship after about 7 weeks to 2 months in.

[Doctor_Strix]

She had me at, “Hello, there is a all you can eat special of our famous chicken wings. And all beer pitchers are half off.”

[luvstoned4him]

A lifetime apparently because its hard for me. Love isn't for the faint of heart and I treat it as such. Its serious business.
