When Is It Love

I have a problem that I am sure each of you can relate to, whether you want to admit it or not. Men this one is for you as well.
I have been dating this guy for over a month now and he is an absolute dream; He is caring, he is attentive, he is nurturing, he is manly, he is borderline perfect. He has no red-flag tendencies, and he is not ashamed to tell me how he feels.
I find myself thinking of him when I wake up, when I am studying, when I am eating, when I go to bed, and possibly when I am dreaming---I don't too much remember my dreams---as if he is my knight in shining amor(yes I meant amor). I have never had feelings for a guy like I have for him. Sure there was a summer fling last year that almost turned into a full on love affair, but I feel that since I have experienced it once before, the summer romance never heard those three words, that I should be able to detect the feelings rather fluently, but I cannot. I think I just don't want to second-guess it. I am listening to music that only dictates how I feel for him, ha!
As of now it is Butterflies by Michael Jackson, may he rest in peace. I am unable to listen to hate songs, or even songs hip-hop/rap. I can only listen to love songs.
I only think of love songs.
I only feel of love songs.
This is getting to be a little out of hand.
The feelings are usually controlled by me. Even the last guy, once we broke up, was easily cut off by myself. However, for the first time in my life I feel as if I would be devastated if anything would ever happen to our relationship.
---You Are Not Alone
I love having a blog I must say. I can fully express myself and not worry about whether I have a following or not. I don't give a fuck, for I am not alone---pun intended---yes I did it, so what???!!! Right now my special guy is away working on his advancement in the military. No technology whatsoever, just letters. I FEEL AS IF I WILL DIE FROM LACK-AGE OF HIS VOICE. Which is another point. Before him, I would not want to be on the phone with anyone. Every boyfriend that I have had has had to adjust to texting me because I do not have the time to talk. But for some strange reason, I am compromising. This is incredible. I feel like a catholic at confessional, only I am not dumping shit to make room for more shit---take it, for it's only a joke.
Trey Songz---Your Side Of The Bed
I also grew emotionally attached to this song after just 2 weeks of dating. This is crazy. I felt that I liked him early on so this song rings bells, for he is in the army and wants to do active duty. I already know my mother likes him, for she asked me the other day whether or not I would mind marrying a military man. I never did, because, although I am a huge flirt, I feel that flirting is an open-ended expression of feelings for that special person. If you do not at least allow yourself to be attracted to other people, WITHIN RESPECTABLE BOUNDARIES, that you will eventually cheat and shit on all the happiness and love that has thus far amassed. I am a very loyal person so distance never deterred me.
In fact, my special guy once told me that he sometimes thinks that I am spitting game to him because I am so smooth. Like I said before, flirting is an outward expression for your true feelings for that special person. I just so happened to be speaking to him when those feelings came out.
TLC---Diggin' On You
Oh yes, I am so feeling this............wait for it
Red Light Special
I have loved this song my entire life, but for some reason he is giving it new meaning............I wanna try it ha!
Yes he is doing a number on me---is this even a blog anymore?
Anywho
How do you tell if it is love, or am I already there???
