heheheh yes it does.
self sacrifice is a huge part of knowing it's love.... when their needs outway yours. and I don't mean self sacrifice cuz it will have a sexual return for you later - that's selfish undercover, know what I mean?
Rabid, i know ALL about that with someone, yet conntecting with another deal. but that's a whole other thread! There is not just one perfect soulmate for you - maybe just one in the current town you reside in.
PBiddy412, I can't exactly say what you got going on FOR SURE, since I am not you... but it is cool starting our sweet like that! I prefer to call it infatuation, but people call it love and it feels so good. Are you at a point where you should say "I love you" to her? Probably not after two weeks. So it probably isn't really love. But that is not a bad thing. You still have a great time with her.
Let's toss sex into the action here. We all love it, we all want it, it can feel great with JUST ABOUT ANYBODY that is breathing, but it can cause more pain than love because it tells your brain you are in love even when you might not be. I'm not gonna preach my religion to anybody here, I just want to say that people who jump into sex right after infatuation tend to get hurt REAL BAD after then breakup later when they discover they really have nothing else in common, no similar direction and beliefs... and it's real painful to split the package up when half of it was just sex. Pain, pain, pain. IF you can wait 6 months or a year until you REALLY GET TO KNOW someone, then when you feel it will last, the sex is all that much better too. Maybe I'm getting too deep in a love topic, but it is related. I believe it takes 1 to 2 years to really get to know someone. Think of how many people you know got divorced in less than two years. I know quite a few. Sure the sex was great, but then they found each other - there wasn't much there and they are disappointed. When you GROW into it over time, you can start growing together to a point where that is what you want life to be... growing together forever.... get married, get down and dirty and stay blissfully happy together forever! That's the goal inside everyone of us, admitting it to our selves or not. But when you do it and break up having nothing in common it is a lot more painful than if you didn't dive in. Why would you hang out with people you have nothign in common with? You wouldn't. Same deal. Okay enough about that.
Just tryign to save you avodiable pain if possible.
Sounds like you are off to a running start with those great intro feelings! Way to go! I hope it blossoms into real love for you.
When you and her can hold each other on the couch in stained underwear, watching Ren & Stimpy reruns, while having a farting contest, laughing, and just looking into each other's smiling eyes, and having that be the best day of the week, you've arrived, you know exactly what true love is!
