Are you in love, or just comfortable? Letβs find out.”
Ever felt like your relationship is⦠just there?
Youβre together, you talk every day, but deep down, something feels off. Are you truly in love, or are you just stuck in a comfortable routine? Letβs break it down!
1. Youβre Excited About the Person, Not Just the Routine
Do you look forward to themβtheir thoughts, their laughter, their energy? Or do you just like the fact that theyβre there? Love keeps you excited about the person, while habit keeps you stuck in autopilot.
2. Conversations Go Beyond βWhatβs for Dinner?β
If all your talks revolve around logisticsβchores, bills, schedulesβyou might be in habit mode. But if you still have deep, meaningful conversations where you genuinely learn about each other, thatβs a great sign of love.
3. You Feel Safe, But Also Inspired
A healthy relationship should make you feel secure, but also push you to grow. If you feel emotionally safe AND encouraged to be your best self, youβre in the right place.
4. You Miss Them, Not Just the Idea of Them
Do you miss their presence, their voice, their quirks? Or do you just miss having a partner in general? Big difference!
5. Love Feels Effortless (But You Still Put in Effort)
Love doesnβt feel like a choreβbut you still choose to put in effort because you genuinely want to. If youβre staying just because itβs “easier” than leaving, thatβs a red flag.
Final Thoughts
Relationships take work, but they shouldnβt feel like a job. If youβre in love, youβll want to invest in your partner. If youβre just in a habit, youβll feel like youβre just going through the motions.
