how often do you fall in love?
often? rarely? is it generally easy or difficult for you?
Usually a couple times a decade, but I haven't had much experience in the area.
Too often.
Only with some movie characters like twice a year. Never irl
I love different people in different ways. I've been infatuated, fancied people, loved different friends. Human variety ftw. I admit to cartoon and movie characters too.

Maritsa I think you should specify your view of what love is in the OP.
Not this time.

A thousand times a million doors to eternity

An endless turning stairway climbs
To a tower of souls
If it takes another thousand years, a thousand wars,
The towers rise to numberless floors in space
I could shed another million tears, a million breaths,
A million names but only one truth to face
Rarely. Love is too powerful of a state to experience very often at all.
I get infatuated pretty easily. Maybe fell in love twice?
30 times a day.
I don't fall out of it
ok so let's make it 2 questions:
1) how often and how easily are you infatuated
2) how many people have you actually loved (romantically) so far?

I've only been in love like I am with my husband just with him, so once. But I've had less major love feelings for maybe 4 or 5 other guys before him.
Infatuation though is a regular thing for me, and always has been. I get infatuated with people all the time. Even since I've been married. So many times I couldn't count.

You can't wake a person who is pretending to be asleep.
These are unanswerable questions for me, as i really have no idea when such feelings will strike and with whom. The frequency that this happens, intensity of feeling towards a person, and degree of attachment is something that is very situational and varies very much in my case.

about twice a week, you know, when I'm feeling up to it.

You have good taste, timeofmylife. A ripe one.
Well I'm 21 now and I'd say actual love twice in my life. That whole different people and different ways thing is true for me too, but if you mean actual i want to spend the rest of my life with this person, head over heals, they are my other half kinda love. Twice.
Easy Day
Infatuated pretty easily, only loved one person romantically thus far.
If this is true then once for me. Or at least once that didn't make me any more irrational than I already am.
Easy Day
I agree.
I've been infatuated, and it sucked. It was like some crappy rollercoaster of emotions with elated highs and downright depressing lows, but I never really felt good. I felt out of control, and it made my life worse overall. I don't think love does that, I think it should make you feel stronger and better. I only want to love once, because when I know for sure it's real and mutual, I'll stay with him forever.
@original poster: I'm very rarely infatuated. It has only happened a couple times.
huh?
never.
I'm not sure I can distinguish infatuation from love.
Rarely and difficult.
1) "Hi, my name's ____. Nice to meet you." = Infatuated.explain? you get infatuated with someone who says that to you? or you say that to someone with whom you're infatuated?

CILi presents him/her/self? as your dual with a cutesy avatar waving hi
Lots of perils with being that way
Doubting it to be type related, but I'm quite similar to CILi, though I often don't think much will come of a romantic relationship, so I don't pursue it and whoever it is I am "infatuated" with change often-ish. Not sure, actually, if that then counts as infatuation.

Yeah, it doesn't really seem possible for me. Even trying to read through these long debates on infatuation vs love doesn't convey any more information.

Infatuated: Maybe a couple times a year
Really liked someone: Once in my life
Loved someone: Never

what about the theory that in the beggining it is all chemistry, head-over-heels, hormones and stuff and it takes time to see if it is real love? doesn't it always make you irrational in this 1st stage?
People I would have wanted to spend the rest of my life with, if the timing had been right?

To be honest, it did happen more than 3 times in a month when I was younger, that is, like, 14-18 yrs of age. There were times I didn't even know that someone is, actually, interested in me. Growing older, I just, I don't know - minded my own business I guess.
Oh ye, for a traditional "I'm wearing the pants around here, go make me brownies" guy UDP, you're damn gender-blind.
