These are the 4 signs of intense chemistry

Dating is not as easy as it used to be. The media often discusses how difficult it is for young people to find a good life partner. Dating apps are a lot of fun, but you can't tell how that person is in real life just from a photo. Charm and humor are not easy to convey through a screen, no matter how hard you try. I can say from experience that I would never swipe positively on the men I actually find attractive in real life. To me, charm is everything; it has nothing to do with looks. But if you do meet through an app, how do you know if it's the excitement of dating through the app (essentially just a blind date), or if you really like each other? These are the chemistry flags.

Everything feels awkward. In a good way.
You not only feel tension for the first date, but your second and third dates still evoke the same feeling. Everything feels awkward; you almost hesitate to choose which wine you want to drink and are very aware of how you come across to the other person. It's not that you're pretending to be someone else to impress, but you do want to show the best version of yourself. And yes, that sometimes leads to awkward situations because you're just trying too hard.

You lose track of time
As soon as you're together, the cliché becomes completely true: time flies when you’re having fun. You're excited to get to know each other better and want to know how the other thinks about things or what has made them who they are. You become so engrossed in each other that suddenly it's 1:00 AM and you've ’accidentally‘ missed the last train.

Everything feels intense
A hug, a kiss on your cheek, eye contact. With this person, everything feels more intense. With other people, you also feel warmth and coziness, but with this person, it feels like everything is tingling, an electric current running through your arm when you hold hands. When you're in the same room, you are automatically drawn to each other like magnets. You can feel it when the other looks at you, even if you're not standing next to each other. It's a kind of warmth you can't explain.

You are curious about the future
You don't really doubt whether there is a future for you, you're mainly curious about what the future holds. And it's not just you thinking about this. Occasionally, you hear your date drop hints that suggest they are also looking towards the future. At first, it will be questions like ‘how do you celebrate Christmas’, even though it's only September. But eventually, it will also be about bigger matters, like dreams and your own future plans.
