7 Emotions You Feel When You’ve Fallen in Love (2 of 4)

2. A whole lot of awkwardness going on

No matter how much self-confidence you normally have, there’s nothing that makes you feel more clumsy and unsure of yourself quite like falling in love! Stumbling over your words? Spending way too much time trying to craft a routine text message? Laughing way too loudly when they tell a mildly amusing joke? Acting awkward is completely natural because it’s a sign that you care deeply about how you’re perceived and invested in making a connection with them.

3. Your playful side comes out

Love often finds a way of bringing out your lighter, more playful side. You make up inside jokes that only you two get while everyone else is confused. Teasing becomes a love language, and the moments that you share together become adventures! You’re suddenly smiling a whole lot more, you act downright giddy, and you savor these sweet moments of laughing together. This playfulness isn’t merely about fun; it’s a sure sign that you’re growing comfortable with each other and feel free to be yourselves!
