Can you stop yourself from falling in love?

Love, or rather true love, is something that you can’t really truly suppress. Maybe for some time you can tell yourself that you must stop falling in love, or that you simply can’t love someone, but at some point that feeling will come back.

What to do when you fall in love for the first time?

Fixate on their negative qualities. When you are falling in love with someone, your view of them is often skewed. You can only see what makes this person so great. To control your feelings, develop a more sober and realistic perception of the other person.
