Am I In Love?

Well, I believe it started out as fear of blushing, and progressed to obsessive thoughts, and then to wondering if the other person was obsessive also, because he said he also had Obessive problems, such as fear of germs, etc. He said he got over his problem by apply the prinicple of love when in a third world country. I had a hard time believing he could cure himself with love for others. But he has the same fear of blushing that I do. I just know it. We are like mirror images in some ways. That's why I started to wonder if our Obsessive problems and Fear of Blushing problems where leading somewhere I did not want to go...like unwanted thoughts...Anybody understand the confusion of feelings?

Hi Redface, :) You're probably not going to like what I'm about to tell you but here goes. Only you can answer that question. Maybe, and this is pure assumption on my part!, but maybe you've been used to others making decissions for you in your life. Like family members and such. I just want to tell you that you have the right to make your own decissions and have your own feelings. :) However, I do know what you're talking about and how confusing emotions can be with panic. I find it hard to express my love for my partner when I'm having a bad time with panic. The same rush of adrenieline accossiated with panic is the same rush we get when we are in love. The only differenece is the feelings that go along with it. When we're panicking that rush can be horrifying. When we're in love that rush can be wonderful! So when you're feeling delicate with panic the two emotions get confused, and a lot of the time we don't know what we're feeling. Try to think of this person you speek of logically. Maybe then you can decide if it's love! Hope this helps a bit. Take care and keep us posted. :)

When I am afraid I will blush around someone who I have to be around a few times a week, and I make them blush too, is it love, or agoraphobia? Does anybody else out there have the same problem?
