How to distinguish infatuation from love: experts told what hinders real feelings
There is an opinion that before deciding on a responsible step, partners should sort out their feelings.
The most important thing at this stage is to understand the differences between love and infatuation.
Experts have named four distinctive signs of falling in love that prevent real feelings from developing.
Signs of falling in love
1. In this case, a person may experience fear of new relationships. This happens to those who, in childhood, did not have the opportunity to act independently due to the constant control of worried adults.
Such people may even avoid serious relationships.
2. In case of falling in love, a person avoids the feeling of affection. The roots of the problem again go back to childhood.
The child could have been raised in “Spartan” conditions, or there could have been other negative experiences in relationships with adults.
3. The next sign is unrealistic expectations. When the partner is first presented as flawless, and then the inevitable disappointment sets in.
4. Fear of separation, but it would be more correct to say - fear of being abandoned. This happens to those people who have been betrayed.
Because of their fears, they may decide to break off the relationship themselves, just to avoid becoming a victim again.
