Falling in love…the most romantic time of your life. Every look, every touch and every place is magical. You are floating a foot off the ground most times and the little warmth in your belly almost never goes away. You get a little tingle throughout your body every time his name pops on your phone screen. His presence takes your breath away. You feel slightly dumb and giddy when he’s around and you have no idea why but you don’t hate it. Ahh, the beauty of falling in love…

But today I had a thought: is it actually possible and realistic to trust that feeling in times like these? An unprecedented environment where we are astonished by the eerie situation. When we fear the unknown or the duration of our isolation and seclusion not to mention the consequences of the whole ordeal. Do you trust your heart to be completely unaffected or has it been tarnished by the situation and our new normal?

In other words: if you had met the same guy 6 months ago, would you have falling in love with him the same?
