Are they drinking coffee right now? Are they having a good day? You sure hope that cold of theirs is getting better. You miss them like crazy even though you just saw them, like, 12 hours ago.
Yep, the fact that you saw a billboard for a movie they like and were cut off in traffic by a car that looks a lot like theirs are totally signs you're destined for each other.
They challenge you, but in the best of ways. They make you feel empowered to be the best version of yourself, because they see everything about you that's awesome and totally believe in you.
Have you ever felt this alive before? Has food always tasted this good and the sun always been so bright? Did you really actually date other people once? Everything feels like it's happening for the first time.
As it turns out, getting to know someone new shines a pretty bright light on your own character, and you're that much better for it.
And you just know they will.
You want to selfishly savor your new love and let it grow on its own terms for as long as you can before sharing it with everyone else in your life. Maybe you're even content to keep the romance off social media right now, because for the moment, it's only for you two, like a special little secret club.
If you're giving up your Saturday nights to cuddle on the couch with them or venturing out for day dates on chilly winter Sundays, you know you're hooked.
Hmm, what was it that made your unrequited love for that dude Brad at the office so enticing for all those years?
Who could possibly be more more amazing than your new bae?
In fact, it pops into your head every few seconds, and you maybe can't stop thinking about it when you're supposed to be focusing on an exam or standing in line at the DMV.
Your physical connection is amazing, but the emotional bond you're building is part of what makes the sex so out of this world.
Instead of draining you, spending time with them makes you feel more vibrant than you have in years.
Now, spending your weekends deep-diving into curling or WWE wrestling matches doesn't seem so bad.
And each new revelation feels like Christmas morning.
To you, it's all magical.
You might take notes, just in case you forget. (I won't tell, I swear.)
Hey, you can't just send them all at once! That would be overwhelming!
Mostly, you're looking for more keys to how their mind works and what they're all about, but you're also super obsessed with everything they love.
You want to know everything about them: what their childhood was like, the scariest thing that ever happened to them, their most vulnerable moment, their favorite meal...
Nobody's perfect, but their imperfections and baggage are just the right fit for your own. Instead of deciding they'd be a great match for you if they just chucked a few nasty habits here and there, you already appreciate them as they are.
You couldn't hide your adoration if you tried.
You know you're falling in love, because you're riding on a roller coaster of emotional highs.
Taking the leap of falling for someone is terrifying! In the past, you might have even let that stop you from going for someone you liked, but this time, it's all too amazing to let your fears get in the way.
And oh, how cozy that is.
BRB, holing up in their apartment and ignoring the outside world together for the next 48 hours.
