    Have been seeing a girl for the last 2 years. We went out for 3 months when we were teenagers. I broke up with her as I had a lot going on at the time.

    We are back together for the past 2 years. Both in late 20's.

    She is amazing, beautiful, caring, understanding, everything you could possibly ask for in a girlfriend.

    I miss her when she is not there, and I cant help but smile everytime I see her!

    I know she loves me to bits but I dont want to hurt her...

    The thing is, I know i love her as a person but how I do I know I am IN love with her??

    Had a previous serious relationship that ended years ago, I still think of the ex but there is no way I would or could go out with her again. When I saw my previous girlfriend I would get butterflies and the whole lot. She was first love and Im worried that I wont ever love my current gf as much!

    What should I do? I dont know if Im staying with my current gf as I just dont want to be alone or weather I am IN love with her? Any advice, greatly appreciated!

    Don't think you love her enough if you have to ask.

    You say you've been in love before, so you'd know if you were in love now!

    I agree with the above. If you are asking questions. Something is wrong. I dont think love is complicated. You just know. Hope that helps. Best of luck

    You mean you aren't infatuated with her.

    That wears off over time anyways, butterflies and fireworks and such. Over rated. Long lasting love is bonding, trusting, caring.

    I strongly agree. You used up your infatuation potential with this woman when you were both teenagers.

    I think you are now looking at the difference between juvenile love and mature love.
