February is the month of love, I am sure you are feeling it too wherever you are. Love is in the air as they say. I am feeling so good right now as i type this out. Love is a special thing. I am also so happy and grateful that i have a lover of my own. Before for the past 2 years, it would have been a different story. lol. Anyho. Valentines is here guys? What are you doing for your loved one ? I am expecting this time around.. Will definitely blog about it okay.

Love is a beautiful thing. Its a necessity to this lifetime. It boosts your confidence, makes your skin glow and it can legit make you happy all the time. (PS I experienced this with my now bf) So to some of you who are single, girl do not worry your day will come. Sometimes love creeps on you when you least expect it. You might have crush to, so how do we distinguish when you are in love or its just a crush ?

You think about them all the time

There is just this one feeling about loving someone that i can not explain. You know you are in love with someone when all you think about is them. You think about how they look, you think about what they are doing, you also think about if they are thinking about you. Crazy right ? Love does really drive people insane thats why some people would rather not fall in love at all because they do not want to risk their hearts getting hurt should anything happen. Sometimes you fall in love so much that you can not even focus and all you do is think about this person.

You start planning about the future (in your head)

This starts happening once you are deeply in love with someone. All of a sudden you can not see life without this person. He is your everything and you can not resist the idea of having his babies! lol. Its natural to feel or think this way when you are in love. Just dont get to ahead of yourself. Make sure you and your partner are on the same page. You dont wanna be here planning the future and your partner does not feel the same way. There is nothing wrong with hints here and there. However, its always ideal when you both discuss your future plans together. If he doesn’t reciprocate then baby-girl better withdraw your love.

Tonnes of excitement and good mood

My favorite elements about falling in love with someone. Gosh you get so filled with so much feel good chemicals in your brain its crazy. I really dont know how our mind and body works on a biological level, but one thing i know is being in love or falling in love makes you naturally happy. Its irresistible. All of sudden you start singing love songs or dancing and you have this zeal to make yourself better for this person. Its crazy. love is crazy. I love every bit of it though. The funny thing is the opposite actually happens when you not in love anymore. You become so depressed and some become suicidal. Im not here to talk about the opposite though. This month we are celebrating love.

Your skin starts glowing

The feel good chemicals come with a lot of benefits to your body. One of these benefits is glowing skin! Yup thats damn right. I am talking from my own experience and if you try googling this you will get so many information on it. Love makes your face glow. Your skin glows cause remember you are happy when you are in love with someone.

Your face is next to the word ‘Jealous’ in the dictionary .. lmao

As much as you may try to control yourself, when you fall in love with someone, you can not imagine that person being with someone else. That thought alone kills you. You become so jealous. Its a natural thing. This day and age is a bit strange to stay jealous since there is so much engagement on social media. We have so much access to anything and everything. Man, i cant even get into much detail but im sure you know what i mean. Falling in love is a beautiful thing, Ima leaving you with this last word tho, fall in love responsibly.

Blessings
