Is There a Look of Love?

I maintain that being in love is better for a person's looks than any beauty product out there. If you are in love, or know anyone in love, you can test this theory yourself. I've found that I am more apt to work out and quit bad habits when I am in love. And lets not even go into if the sex is good & how many calories you can burn off & the great stamina you can build up...At any age, being in love can bring out the very best in a person. To feel loved and love someone can put that extra spring in your step and put you at the top of your game.

Let's face it! There is lots of grooming and primping that we can either choose to indulge in or totally ignore. When we are complacent, we don't do as much as when we are "fishing" or "courting". I know that we girls pull out all of the stops with our highest heels, our slinkiest dresses, and our sweetest perfume to entice and lure our men. We keep everything tight and just the way he likes it and because we know we are pulling together a total package. Men may work out more, groom themselves a little more, and even adhere to some sort of style to show off their swag. Like the Peacock, he wants to show his feathers are like no other. And because you are doing this for yourself, it boosts your confidence and the glow is reflected in almost everything you do. If you don't know if you are in love, just look in the mirror. Of course this doesn't apply to everyone, but oftentimes this is a spot on indication of how much effort you are putting into your relationship.

Ironically, being in love is noticeable to the other members of the opposite sex as well (besides your mate). There is an air about a person in love that makes the opposite sex want to be the object & recipient of their affection. Your eyes may follow them all the way down the street and your subconscious may wonder what it is about them. When you think about it, it really makes sense in a primal type of way. Survival of the fittest. We instinctively want people who have good genes, traits that are compatible with ours, but also one who are desired & sought after by others, and favored by the masses. They are also attractive because happy people tend to have a more positive attitude. And a good attitude is infectious.

Being in love can be such great motivation to be at your best. So, in many ways there can be a look of love. Its the smirk of security, and the wink of happiness that you are reminded of when you see someone in love. It can make you want to be like them, or be with them but it is obvious. The glow may not be literal, but the overall presentation seems to be much better and more put together because of raised consciousness & awareness. But even with all of this, the look of love is simply a residual effect. The really beautiful part of love is not the way it looks, but the way it feels when you are in it!
