“My studies have shown that the process of falling into mature love happens in four steps. When you meet a woman, you subconsciously look for cues that she's the kind os person you should be with. That's assumption. If she passes the assumption test, you begin to get to know her to find out if she's appropriate for you. If she is, you're attracted. If, as you get to know her, the attraction is reinforced with joy or pain or both, you'll fall into infatuation. And if you manage to make a connection and attach to each other during infatuation, you'll move into mature, unconditional love.” IfsKnowsShouldLooksKindPersonsHappensPainMovingJoyFallProcessStepsStudyFourConnectionsTestsAttractionManageAssumptionAppropriateUnconditional LoveMatureInfatuationUnconditionalMature Love Author:Jennifer Crusie
