Heartfelt Quotes About Falling in Love
1. True love just happens, it’s not planned.
“Love does not appear with any warning signs. You fall into it as if pushed from a high diving board. No time to think about what’s happening. It’s inevitable. An event you can’t control. A crazy, heart-stopping, roller-coaster ride that just has to take its course.”
– Jackie Collins
You never know when you are going to fall in love, and it happens at the most unexpected times. It just happens, and you can’t control it. So, since Collins described it as a roller-coaster ride, make sure you enjoy the crazy ride that is love.
2. Love the little things.
“Because if I fell any deeper for the way his eyes crinkled with his smile or his habit of tapping on his nose to emphasize a point, my ship would be sunk.” – Katherine McIntyre
When you fall in love, you’ll fall in love with the smallest things about the other person. These smalls intricacies of your loved one are unique to them alone. Because of this, you’ll love the things that make them who they are.
3. Loyalty is love.
“Falling in love is easy. Falling in love with the same person repeatedly is extraordinary.” – Crystal Woods

4. True love is felt with the heart.
“You meet thousands of people, and none of them really touch you. And then you meet one person and your life is changed forever.” – Jake Gyllenhaal as Jamie Randall
This hopeful feeling is how you know you have found the person meant for you. If no one else can make you feel the way that they do, they are special. Likewise, if you’ve never been able to feel this way about anyone else, you’ll know that this is different.
This is why love is so surprising because even those who aren’t looking for it fall in love. Those who haven’t been interested in anyone else can suddenly fall for someone entirely new. It’s unpredictable, but you’ll know it when you feel it.

“First best is falling in love. Second best is being in love. Least best is falling out of love. But any of it is better than never having been in love.” – Maya Angelou

When you’ve met someone special, the feelings you experience will be worth anything that may or may not happen. Plus, you’ll never know what can happen if you give in to the feelings that you have.
6. Love happens when you least expect it.
“Falling in love is not an act of will. It is not a conscious choice. No matter how open to or eager for it we may be, the experience may still elude us. Contrarily, the experience may capture us at times when we are definitely not seeking it when it is inconvenient and undesirable.” – M. Scott Peck
You can’t control when or how you fall in love, and you can’t simply decide to do it. Falling for someone is something that happens on its own, no matter the timing or situation. Even if you think it is bad timing, love can happen to you despite any reservations you have.

“He stepped down, trying not to look long at her, as if she were the sun, yet he saw her, like the sun, even without looking.” – Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina

14. You cannot have love without vulnerability.
“It’s so hard and scary to open your heart to someone. It’s much easier to kind of float and not invest and not expose yourself and not open your heart. The point is, vulnerability is the key to happiness. Vulnerable people are powerful people. Opening your heart and sharing it means you’re going to get so much love in your life.” – Amy Poehler
As amazing as love is, it is scary, too. Knowing that a person can hurt you can make you feel vulnerable. So, thinking that way, it seems easier to avoid love, but this isn’t really what you should do.
Instead, accept the vulnerability and embrace the idea of being as happy as possible at the moment. By doing this, you’ll be able to give love and receive love freely.
