Answer

Hi there, 

Welcome to Ask Alex, and thank you so much for getting in touch with your thoughts and feelings.

You have asked what does love feel like, this is a great question and being in love can be a different feeling and experience for everyone. What is important is that when you are in love that you feel a sense of safety and comfortable to be yourself. Love is not something that should feel fearful. 

There are also different types of love such as love with family members, love with friendships and also love with in a romantic partner. Again all of these can be experienced differently but that sense of safety, comfortablity tends to be evident throughout.
