Aspies, what does "love" feel like for you, in a romantic sense? is it "hard" to fall in love"? Please describe what it feels like for romantic contexts

It’s not hard to fall in love but it is hard to identify love when you’ve never been in love. I thought many times I was in love until I was really in love. The good part is, when you’re really in love, you’ll know.

Love for me is being truly comfortable with someone, being able to express myself the way I am (the things you love, childish quirks etc) and being respect.

Normally I get really irritated with people, I can’t be around someone for long without creating some negative feelings but with my recent partner it’s different, I really adore my time with him. I have never laughed so much with someone, he’s the best.

Love is also taking care of each other. Being respected and cared for when times are a little rough or even when some autistic traits are up front. I guess I’m kinda lucky that my bf has Asperger too so we can relate on lots of Asperger things which makes it a little easier to understand each other. Great communication is also important, I think that’s a part of love too, for me. I can’t communicate well with most people but I can with him (‘cause I’m comfortable).

For me it didn’t take a lot of time to fall in love. It happened in a couple of days, we just clicked on many levels and I suddenly knew I reallllly liked him. It just happened.
