Most people fall in love for look, money, intelligence and/or social standings, but that isn’t really love or falling love.
As they say:
Don’t fall in love for beauty, because looks don’t last.
Don’t fall in love for money, because money comes and goes.
Don’t fall in love for brains, because you want a lover, not a conversational partner.
Don’t fall in love for social status, because they won’t accept you anyway.
So what is that thing about a person that makes you fall in love with them?
for me- whoever can make me laugh. dispite whatever circumstances, trials, tribulations, challenges Allah gives us, to not get beaten down and take it all in stride- with a smile for being alive.
good sense of humour, n if i feel comfortable with the person (now i hav no idea wut makes me comfortable.. but there is sumthin which juss clicks sumtimes.. ), last but not least… if m gettin n e respect from the person…thats about it … i guess …
*I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge.
*That myth is more potent than history.
*That dreams are more powerful than facts.
*That hope always triumphs over experience.
*That laughter is the only cure for grief.
*And I believe that love is stronger than death.
I dunno.. I know what I find attractive... but every once in awhile someone comes along and I cannot help but be attracted to her and I don't even know why... but as far as falling in love..I think that's a conscious decision at least it is for me.
Here's a better question. Why is is that it's so hard to stop being in love with someone once you realise it's the wrong person? I guess havng said that maybe I don't really choose who I fall for... hmm..
well falling in love isnt an easy thing.
Once in a while thing.
you cant fall in love all the time =)
Something that attracts me in a person is his intelligence, creativity, lively mood, sophistication, honesty and faithfulness…
some other qualities here and there as well
uniqueness, honesty and just being themselves i hate it when ppl try to be diff to please someone.. admittedly i have done that.. achieves nothing tho!!!
love just happens, u just click and thats it.. its hard to forget someone u r in love with.. u can like someone conciously but falling in love happens gradually.. (most of the time) u love them for who they r and what they r.. if that person is wrong for u .. u can never have loved them, lust and love can be mistaken too!!! ;)
once it happens ur a goner... ;) honest!!!!
"do not be jealous in any way of those things which Allah has granted more freely to some of you than to others; to men is alloted what they earn, and to women what they earn. (4:32)
Love is something that cannot be possibly defined and/or described in the shape of words.
Even the most popular writer, the Shakespeare could not accurately define the feelings of love in his famous novell: "Romeo and juliet".
But frankly, we actually do not fall in love, thesedays,....But when we do, we do not realize it.
The best way to know the almost exact feelings about love is to ask someone who is a broken heart.
Watcher, that word "makes" in your original question is a bit odd. No one can make themselves fall in love with anyone, I imagine it must be one of those things which happen themselves. We love a lot of people in our lives, parents, siblings, friends, relatives. However, the kind of love u r discussing is something which should come about only once in one lifetime. If someone falls in love more than once, there is definitely something wrong and it's not love. Merely infatuation. There is a fine line between the two. There are certain things which count for any relationship, let it be with parents, siblings, friends, relatives or any else:
Character:
It shouts. Actions reveal thoughts. Sincerity:
How truthful they are with you. Maturity/Deceny:
Wether they know the within limits approach to things
And last but not least, depth of soul. One's heart is their soul, and soul is what they are. It's the soul which holds the spirit together.

Yes RareD, there is something about that very person that makes you fall in love with that person. There is that thing that makes you go "awe" its just irresistible!
Whether its: Character, Sincerity, Maturity/Deceny, or combination of those words, personality.
