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

6. You feel disorientation

Falling in love can leave you feeling pleasantly disoriented. Your previous routines, priorities and thought patterns give way to a “new” you in which your beloved crush becomes the star of the show. You find yourself losing track of time, forgetting about commitments you’ve made, or even lacking the concentration that had previously been a strength. Every familiar facet of your life suddenly feels slightly tilted now that he or she has unexpectedly become the center of your emotional universe. It’s complete chaos, but rest assured—it’s the beautiful kind!

7. Infatuation takes hold

In the early stages of love, infatuation can take hold like the plague. All your thoughts are focused on them. You’re wild about them. It’s like an obsession. You find every mundane thing that they do to be adorable. Their flaws seemingly don’t exist while their mere presence is like a drug. After another successful date ends, you replay the best moments of the conversation in your mind like a highlight reel. Although infatuation doesn’t last forever, it’s a phase that truly brings out the magic of falling in love!
