Hi my name is Anne, 18 years old and I’ve known a guy who is 21 years old, for about 3 months. I’m wondering if what I feel for him is really love or just a simple crush. I feel happy when I’m with him, I think about him often, and yes, I sometimes get jealous when he talks to other girls but I’m not sure if that’s real love or just infatuation. He’s important to me and I also really enjoy being with him because he’s very funny, playful, has a great sense of humor and he always makes me laugh but I don’t want to rush my feelings because I feel like there’s a difference between a crush and real love.
How do you identify the difference of your feelings between true love and simply liking someone? Are there signs that it’s really love and not just infatuation?
