Is it possible to fall in love without infatuation?

[ephedrine]

Till now, I have experienced feelings of infatuation, which means addictive love, for anyone I fell in love with. Now, there is a guy with whom I want to have a relationship with, but there are no infatuation symptoms, so I’m confused. Does it mean that I don't love him? Is falling in love without infatuation normal, or is it just me?

I haven’t experienced infatuation love in my current relationship, which bothered me for awhile, but I learned that it’s a different, deeper kind of love. The other relationships I had were more unstable, or we more sexual than anything, but this one I genuinely enjoy him. Also, the ‘infatuation’ came with time for me :)

Honestly, I think infatuation can turn into love. As you get to know the person (like really get to know them), you start to see them for who they are as a person. They’re not just an attractive face/body.

Infatuation can be the first stage of love, but not everyone experiences infatuation. You can meet someone wonderful without that love-at-first-sight rush.

to me infatuation and to "fall in love" are both emotion / feeling based. Love should be a commitment, not a feeling.

Finally noticed the difference between a connection and the chemical reaction in the mammal brain that tricks us into reproducing.

Yeah, essentially if you were friends first and then fell in love later then that’s one way

Yes, of course it is. Just as long as you take your time and not be in a hurry.
