Falling in Like

To like someone is usually the beginning of loving someone. Like is the early stage of love, and the most difficult one as most who make it to this stage soon end up losing accessibility of the next stage with the intended person.

When you are in like with someone, chances are that they are in like with you too, and that both of you also have other people who you are in like with, even if the amount of like between each person one likes differs. Liking someone is seemingly difficult, as reaching this stage successfully requires the checking of all skills and qualities in potential spouse lists, and of course, the ignoring of some which remain hidden in the final stage of love, seeing as love is indeed blind.

Methods of contact between those in like tend to be repeated to allow for the sanity of both persons, depending on how extreme their levels of like towards one another are. To witness a person in like is to witness hours and consecutive days of thorough communication generally done with one method. This communication may tear one from their eating habits or breathing habits, again depending on the extremity of the like.

Following constant contact, the persons in like become heavily attached to one another. They begin to plot any mere journey or destination with one another and begin to spend more time with each other, at any chance that they may get. This attachment allows for the lessening of other possible people liked by either member’s imposing threats, and heightens the chance of the two persons in like ending up in a solidified relationship, one that once entered, cannot be broken, unless a mighty hungry dinosaur is involved.

A yearning for being with the person you are in like with begins to occur when they are not in your reach, because it becomes excruciating for your soul when their presence is not felt. The persons in like must feel the presence of each other constantly, whether it is by texting, telephone conversations or mere outages involving the two, otherwise a sense of aching begins and beckons both of the two to see each other for whatever reason, allowing their souls to continue their breathing patterns at a speed depicting normality.

Sometimes, both persons in like tend to go their separate ways at one stage. Either one of these persons may during this stage panic, however temporary separation and partnering with other like interests creates a sense of homesickness, and leads both persons back to one another, depending on the mutuality. If home is where the heart is then their home is in your hands, and vice versa. If your like interest goes astray, encourage their distance because it is only temporary and seeing as humans have a life span of an average of one-hundred years, it will not harm you spending a few of these years allowing a potential person of like to stray and find themselves in the world while in the meantime learning that they belong to the world but their heart belongs to you. Do not panic.

If you are suffering from any of the symptoms listed above, chances are that you have fallen in like. And if you have fallen in like, you have fallen in like because the love stage requires utter mutuality. Utter mutuality is met only when both persons in like are in like with each other to the extent where living becomes unbearable until they are by the other person’s side. Be mindful, though, for they could be in like with you too, but if neither of you are ready for any minor reason or circumstance, do not you dare for it for as of yet, it is not love. You are in a state of like and to liberate yourself from that state you must keep doing whatever it is that you are doing now. Because if these symptoms still persist then your stages are progressing towards love and soon you will feel the warm, comforting embrace of that individual which you have grown to love, and will love to grow old with.

Like a person, and love a person. Fall in like and enjoy every second because most people do not experience this lovely pre-state of love. Rushing into love does not allow the immense experiences of ‘what ifs’ and ‘maybes’ to thrive. Rushing eliminates excitement. Fall in like and love who you like, and who likes you back.
