Have you ever had an unrequited love? ↗

[Simslover92]

Once we get physical tbh. My love language is physical touch and physical intimacy so I bond fast once that happens.

[NicholasRedone]

Butt naked? 🤭 Couldn't resist

[Abbycado]

I think it was a couple of months and I just knew.

[Abbycado]

Ty for mho!

[Asker]

You're welcome

Ah, falling in love—it's like a rollercoaster ride you secretly hope won't throw you off! 😘 For most people, the timeline can vary. Some find themselves smitten almost instantly, while others may take weeks or even months. In my experience, it’s not about the time, but the connection that builds. When you both vibe on that same wavelength, the spark ignites quicker. Remember, there's no rush in matters of the heart. Enjoy the journey, and let love come to you when it feels right! 💕

Depends.

• Some people you get the sense of things early on and start pining for them, in which case you should pace yourself and not rush into anything.
• Some people you have that “slow burn” with and the feeling of love gradually seeps in to your daily thoughts till you can’t picture yourself NOT talking to them.
• Some people you feel nothing for initially but gradually appreciate over a few years.

It all depends on who you are and who they are… who you are to eo and the quality/frequency of your interactions.

Not long at all. I always know what I'm looking for in a partner and quickly get lost in the similarities between us. The more similarities, the better

[anticonformist00]

I’ve heard everything from "3 dates" to "3 months" – but researchers say there’s actually a chemical timeline for love:

1-2 weeks: Dopamine rush ("infatuation phase")
3-6 months: Oxytocin builds ("attachment phase")
1+ year: Deep commitment (brain scans change!)
My experience: Thought I loved my ex after 2 weeks… turned out it was just ✨trauma bonding✨. What’s your fastest vs. slowest love story?

@anticonformist00 give us one when the unrequited eventually fades "she could've fooled me" 👀 or "she never even looked my way after months" 😭😔

[anticonformist00]

Fooled me' = grief for the connection you thought existed

'Never looked' = shame for loving someone who didn't see you

Science says unrequited love activates the same brain pathways as addiction withdrawal (how to rewire it).

Your turn: Which pain lingers longer for you—false hope or invisibility?

[NicholasRedone]

More the fact she looked like you and me and never told or implied for cultural or religious reasons "I dress modestly and don't eye men" well ladies lol 😂😆

[NicholasRedone]

It's not the first time I've seen secular Jewish women or secular Muslim women - teases lol 😂😆 what's a man to think 💭

[NicholasRedone]

Visually looked like any other woman, thought they were just a fan of sleeves or cold often

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

As long as it takes to uncover all major topics I'm interested in.

After that, I feel related to the core of someone. In terms of absolute time: It takes a few months, but those months may contain 200 hours of time spent together. So if I was dating while following the process of first date, second date and so on... Well. Those few months would turn into 5 years to fall for someone I guess, that would be horrible 😂

[trumpetplayerforlife]

I feel like it depends on the person ans the person they are falling for I knew within a few days after meeting my man that I loved him but I knew he was the one after a year when I saw him interact with my nieces

[NicholasRedone]

Seconds 👀 👀 - I've seen some women separately crush on me in seconds - they think I don't know, being absent minded liking with crazy hair at times - but I often know. Those eyes some particular women do - when they know they really really do, 👀 don't fool me as 1 particular man 👿

[NicholasRedone]

The irony is how many women think I don't know when they're have locked onto me like a target 🎯 of a cupid 💘 - 9 times out of 10 time I often know if a woman is looking at me not because I'm just another guy

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

With both my wife and my boyfriend it was roughly a month or two before I said it. Now I did like both immediately, but love took a little longer of being able to trust them since I'm so guarded.

[EzraIsShy76028]

It varies from person to person. I don't really know for sure to be honest. But I assume on average, at least more than a month, but less than a year.

[OneViewpoint]

Longer than a few months. People show you the best of themselves early on. I want to observe them when life happens.

[SAMI_DABBAB]

Not a matter of time, if she just is her trust me it’s 40 hours tops, if she’s not her I’ll love her like I love other women and never like I love my soulmate

[Anonymous]

A girl or woman's mind

A good genuine dude - months, and months and months and months and then the "let me think about it".

A bad boy or bad choice - within a few minutes or few hours

[noohair]

When I see someone, I fall hard and then when I get to know them I run fast.

[Nikki1989]

A few weeks to a few months.

[Sluttt]

After good sex

[NicholasRedone]

@sluttt passionate pelvic thrusts? If they're in passionate, he's no keeper 🤭🤭
