A lot of people have described what it feels like to be in love with someone—the rush of excitement, the anticipation, the passion, the fun, the romance, the yearning. Love doesn’t feel that way at all.
I shall now tell you what it feels like to really love someone.
It feels quiet. You are calm and centered. You feel a stronger sense of security—and this is the surprising part of loving somebody truly, because you never felt as though your life was lacking before. Now you know that when you come home at the end of the day, your beloved will come home as well. This one very special person who you have chosen and who has chosen you.
You know this beyond a shadow of a doubt.
This is a person who is not expendable and cannot be easily replaced. The one you love truly is your touchstone, your witness through life.
Loving someone liberates you from the chains of always searching; you feel a greater sense of freedom in a committed relationship. Because you’re not concentrating on finding the one!, you can pursue your passions and interests wholeheartedly with no distractions. You feel the need to be accomplished, because your partner’s success depends on your own—and vice versa.
When you really love someone, it feels warm and cozy, like climbing into a warm bed on a cold night. You feel like you’re always home no matter where you happen to be.
