Is there a significant difference in relationships, when you are in love?

Question - (8 July 2008) 2 Answers - (Newest, 8 July 2008)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Ok this might seem like a stupid question to anyone that is reading but how do people say a comment like "I've never felt this way about anyone before" meaning strong feelings in a relationship, when they have been in love before?

I have been in love several times and I can honestly say that i cannot differentiate between any of them. Obviously i loved different things about those people. And I can differentiate between someone I just kind of liked to someone that I was head over heals in love with, but I can honestly say that for the people I've actually fallen in love with, I cannot say that the feelings were any different.

Anyone care to help me out here?

hey thanks for the interesting replies. do you think it's true to say that if you do get over someone you loved in the past, you may not have actually "truely" loved them?

Well most people believe in the concept of "true love" - which is the one person that you'll want to be with. Kind of an "I've found The ONE / my soul mate" thing.

It could be said that since you've got over and moved on from so many of these people that you claim to be in love with - that you were never really in love with any of them.

I loved my first serious boyfriend and thought I was in love with him, but it's nothing to how I feel about my husband.

Good Luck!! xx
