22 comments

1. if it’s been less then 6 months, it’s infatuation

2. It’s just infatuation.

3. It’s infatuation

4. Infatuation happens immediately. Relationships are something you build.

5. PNC usually helps with that answer

6. Time. How my feelings evolve as we interact and I get to know her better.

7. It’s always true love until she leaves my line of sight.

8. Picture her in your head. Do you got it? Now if she is wearing clothes you might have some genuine feelings besides infatuation.

9. Infatuation dies out hoss

10. Really hard to tell are you familiar with postnut syndrome?

11. Time. If you are able to see them at their best and worst and your feelings are still the same you have your answer.

12. Everything starts with infatuation. Only time can turn it into true feelings.

13. Post-nut clarity

14. Welp, since you should be dating to marry… and you don’t marry until at least 3 years of vetting them… if you make it that far and haven’t ended things due to a red flag or disinterest… then you know it was true feelings.

    Infatuation doesn’t last that long. It’s usually over in a month or so.

15. Fuck her and find out.

16. I masturbate to the woman in question.
    If I feel the same way during ppst-nut clarity, it’s for realz.

17. …what does it matter if the feelings are real or just infatuation? Just enjoy the time you have with her and bang away.

18. Well you don’t have true feelings without ever having a proper conversation with a woman, that’s just infatuation

19. if the infatuation is to be returned then it might be true after all

20. Time! True feelings are stuck with you for some time

21. Give it time, and you’ll know, if it fades, its infatuation.
    Even if those are true feelings, but she doesn’t feel the same way, then consider it infatuation either ways and move on 😛

22. Well, infatuation is still true feelings. It’s just feelings based on a fictional person.
