Can you really like someone a lot in only 3 days?

Question

Like I really like like this guy so much it's scary. I think I might have relationship addiction disorder. Once I like someone I go full throttle into them. It's scary.

Of course. I can like someone in five minutes. It doesn't mean anything except that they are socially attuned and have charisma. I don't just trust someone in five minutes, or three days, or four months, though. Trust starts being built when I'm vulnerable about something, and someone treats it with respect.

Here's a good indicator: Express a personal opinion that you are worried he may not like or accept. See how he handles it. If he's determined to get you to change your opinion and can't just roll with it respectfully, he's not particularly mature or remarkable. If he makes fun of you for it or dismisses you, it's a bad sign. I'm not saying you should never change your mind; you most certainly should if new information or evidence arises that is relevant. I'm just saying it's a way to see how important it is to him that you conform to his ideas rather than being an individual who has personal thoughts and feelings. See if he is curious about why you think the way you do, or if he just waits for you to stop talking so he can say what he thinks and why you should think that way, too.

Another good one is to set a boundary with your time. This is as much for you as for seeing what kind of person he is. Don't spend every spare moment texting him or being available for him. Tell him you can't hang out at certain times (work on getting yourself caught up on some stuff). Hang out with a friend instead of him (and don't spend the whole time talking about him). Building in space helps you to clear your head, and have some time to think instead of having the constant high affecting your mood and judgment.

I know you can. I fell in love at first sight and most people will say that isn't real or is just infatuation. Well, maybe so, but I it was confirmed over and over again for 3 years. I do, however, think that is the exception. If it is a pattern you see in yourself, then it might be a problem. Does it tend to drive guys off?

people fall in love at different speeds hell do you know how many people got married on the first date during the world wars? The crazy part about it is a lot of the marriages worked out super well too it's one of the more touching parts of military history that reminds you there's still good in the world even in war.

I can't remember the guy's name off the top of my head, but he was a fighter piloted who literally married his wife on the first date and when he came back from the war, they had an incredible relationship. The bond was so strong that when he died in a plane accident testing a new model of plane for the military, she refused to re marry. When people asked her why she said "After having the best, I couldn't settle for second best.

She loved him so much the marriage remained alive even in its death in a sense.

You certainly can. But I’d just try to not move too fast. There is always the chance you will realize something about them that changes your opinion on them and it’s best to be prepared for that possibility

Ah, love at warp speed! 🚀 It's totally possible to feel intensely about someone in just a few days, but remember, that's just the honeymoon phase whispering sweet nothings. Keep an eye out for red flags and make sure you're not lovebombing yourself into a whirlwind. It’s the spark that ignites the flame; just make sure it doesn’t scorch the whole forest in one go! Balance excitement with patience, and enjoy the ride. 😘

When you go through things that are too pleasant and then all the sudden somebody comes into your life and opens up some new doors for you you have to understand that he just opens the doors you're the one that makes you feel the way that you do

But you need to find out on your own and let it go from there see where it goes

Lliam · Answer

Sure you can like someone a lot in that amount of time. You can even fall into infatuation and there's nothing wrong with that. I've done it many times.
Infatuation is one of the best feelings we can experience. And the sex is unparalleled.

But you can't know that you truly love them in that short a period of a time.

RHK36 · Answer

I can fall in love as quickly as I fall out of love. I go by chemistry and sometimes it's there right away and other times it builds over time. I usually go for the latter, but that's wrong. I think you need great initial chemistry and if it's not there I'm moving on.

genericname85 · Answer

i mean sure. as in "infatuation". how much you like anyone doesn't really depend on the person. it depends on the picture of that persons character in your head. whether that picture is accurate to the reality of that person or not is an entirely different story.

Purpleronnie · Answer

If that’s how you are then you have to be true to yourself and it shouldn't be scary if it feels right. Don’t put them on a pedestal though as tthey only have further to fall.

bowenw · Answer

You can, but be careful it's not infatuation or a rebound.

zagor · Answer

That depends. Does "really like someone a lot" mean " want to fuck them"? If so then yes.

MotherEarth2020 · Answer

Well, I fell for someone hard after 3 or 5 days. Ended marrying them, pushing 30 years together. Love likes to play mind games

Garud · Answer

Yes, it is possible but I am a slow mover in this matter and I will look into the person deeply during that time.

LiamS95 · Answer

I think the key word here is like, yes you can like someone after knowing him or her for three days but I don't think you can realistically love someone after only knowing him or her for three days.

Twalli · Answer

How far has your relationship actually gone? Kissing, sex, etc.

HungTexan · Answer

I think you can “like” someone almost immediately. Nothing wrong with that.

Truthatanycost · Answer

No, you only like a fantasy. I'm not even the same person I was 6 months ago...

Absolutely. It can happen a lot faster than 3 days, too.

YourExLover69 · Answer

I can... If a lady is interesting, kind, friendly, open minded, chatty. She draws my attention quickly. 😍

msc545 · Answer

That isn't love. That is just your hormones talking. Don't mistake that for love or you will have a disaster when the effects of the hormones wear off.

Drumlin2001 · Answer

Infatuation can be immediate or quick. Love takes longer
