1. What's a love spell?

Of course, everyone wants to fall in love and feel desired. But did you know that some people go so far as to putting a love spell on others in order to manipulate these types of feelings? While this often comes from a good place, it can end up having a negative effect on the relationship as well as both parties when we try to take matters into our own hands. So if you're thinking about doing a love spell or you think you've been put under one, here are some things that you can look out for to know if it's working.

2. There's a strong desire to be together

We all know that when you're falling in love, you want to spend time with someone. That's a given. But this feeling is incredibly different under a love spell. If someone is under the influence of this type of spell, the need to see that significant other and be with them will cause you deep yearning to the point of anxiousness or even physical pain. You won't feel calm until you're near them, and when you're not, you feel lost or depressed. If you're experience this, you might be under a love spell!

3. It's almost as if they're possessed

One of the craziest signs of a love spell is that the person who's being influenced is at the complete beck-and-call of the person who cast the spell. If you notice that someone is under complete control of another person, to the point where it almost seems as if that other person's wishes are commands, then it might be the sign of a love spell. The person under the spell is no longer able to do anything for themselves outside of what the person who cast the spell wants for them. That's kinda scary!

4. The person who cast the spell is always there

A sign that someone might be under a love spell is if they're completely consumed by thoughts of a specific person. Beyond that, if that specific person just happens to be popping into their life a lot in random places, whether it's the store or work or an event, it very well could be the sign of a love spell. The person who has placed the spell wants you to not only be consumed with thoughts of them, but also to desire to be with only them. This means they must create opportunities for you to act on this newfound obsession.

5. They're suddenly consumed with their ex partner

If you were in a relationship with someone that ended, and you felt as though it was something you worked through and got over, but suddenly you find yourself consumed with the thought of them, you might be under a love spell. It's said that ex partners are the most likely to cast love spells when they want someone back and know that they can't have them. So if you are all of the sudden unable to get your ex off your mind and can't stop thinking about what it would be like to get back together with them, proceed with caution!

6. They space out a lot

We'll get more into the specific ways this can outplay later, but a big sign of a love spell is when the person is daydreaming or spaced out a majority of the day. This makes it virtually impossible to hold a conversation with this person or for this person to get their daily tasks done. That's because the love spell truly makes it so you can think of nothing else but the specific person who cast it. If you notice these types of changes in someone, they might be under a love spell! This can cause a lot of confusion for the person under the spell.

7. They're always in a bad mood

Image Source: Reddit

Another sure sign that a person is under the influence of a love spell can be seen in examining their mood. If a guy has previously been a calm and relaxed person, and he's now acting very restless and anxious, perhaps even tired, it might be a sign. If he seems to consistently be in a bad mood to the point where he won't talk to his friends or family, and the only time he seems to be in good spirits is when a specific person (who cast the spell) is around, then this is a pretty big sign! Have you seen this happen before?

8. They are depressed

In a similar vein, if someone seems completely depressed, as if life is meaningless, when they're not with that significant other, this is a clearcut sign of a love spell. This is what we're talking about when we say these seem good in theory, but then in practice they can cause a lot of harm. Someone under a love spell thinks that life has become quite dull without the other person in it. Nothing and no one else can satisfy them, and they have no motivation for the future. Pretty wild that a love spell can have that much control!

9. They're just acting strange

Image Source: Reddit

While we now know that a love spell can make a person act outside of their normal behavior, this can also manifest in physical ways. Perhaps the person starts to dress very differently to their normal style. Other indicators are taking a deep interest in hobbies that have never interested them before or trying to go to places they would normally never go. These types of behaviors are an indicator of a love spell, as they all act toward the ultimate goal of being consumed with the person who cast it!

10. They're experiencing physical pain

Image Source: Reddit

Because of the extreme emotional and mental discomfort that comes with being under a love spell, it can actually manifest itself in physical pain. If this person notices that they're experiencing more aches and pains than normal, it could be the sign of a love spell. This is for multiple reasons. One being just the fact that our emotions express themselves physically in our bodies, and the other is that when someone's under a love spell, they're less able to tend to their own needs because they're so consumed with the thought of the other person.

11. There are recurring dreams of a specific person

Image Source: Reddit

If you've ever woken up multiple nights in a row having dreams about the same person, you might be under a love spell. Of course, you might also just be in love! But if you feel uncomfortable or a bit off, it might be a sign of something deeper. When you're under a love spell, that person has complete control of your feelings, emotions, and thoughts. This means that even when you sleep, the only thing you desire is them. So if you just can't shake the thought of someone, it very well could be a love spell!

12. They start underperforming at work

Image Source: Reddit

Perhaps you know someone who used to absolutely crush it at work. They were incredibly creative and taking on leadership for various projects. Perhaps they were always super collaborative and wanting to learn new things. If someone does a complete 180 and is no longer interested in work, and therefore starts underperforming, this might be a sign. Watch out for how they're talking. If it seems that the only thing that bring them joy is talking about this one specific person, then they might not be able to concentrate on anything else because of a love spell.

13. Their current partner seems boring

Image Source: Reddit

Perhaps you know that they have moved on from their ex, and you know that they are crazy in love with their current partner. Then all of the sudden, it's as if they have a complete disinterest (or even repulsion) in their current partner. Maybe they're talking incessantly about old times with their ex or even a new person that they don't know and doesn't seem like their normal type. This sort of out-of-character behavior is a sign of a love spell, because the person is truly unable to control their thoughts. Again, we don't recommend messing with people's love lives life this!

14. There's a change in their health or social behaviors

Image Source: Reddit

If you know someone who used to deeply care about eating well and taking care of themselves, and that suddenly changes. It could be a sign of a love spell. On a similar note, if someone was extremely social and outgoing, and they suddenly become withdrawn, this could be another sign. This is because the love spell truly fixates that person to think on nothing OTHER than the person who cast it. That means that any other self-care routines have gone out the window. While it sounds romantic to have someone thinking only of you, it's not practical!

15. They're tired ALL THE TIME

Image Source: Reddit

We talked a bit about this briefly already. Love spells deeply affect a person's mood. This means that someone who's under a love spell will likely feel tired to the point of fatigue most of the time. The reason for this is that the person likely can't sleep, because they are so distraught not being with the person who cast the spell. This causes a deep restlessness. They could also experience bad dreams, because the spell makes them feel as though someone is haunting them. Trust us, this is not how you want to get someone to be with you!

16. There's sexual attraction that wasn't there before

Image Source: Reddit

A HUGE sign of being put under a love spell is if you're near someone you've been around before, but you suddenly feel a new and deep-seated sexual attraction towards that person. This might sound crazy, but this person has literally put you under their influence in order to draw you in. If this is someone you've known for a while, and you suddenly become consumed with them in every aspect of your life, then it's very likely that they have put you under a love spell. These feelings are real, in that you're actually feeling them, but they are not necessarily genuine.

17. The attraction is absolutely consuming

Image Source: Reddit

Beyond just sexual attraction, someone under a love spell feels physically pulled towards the person who cast the spell. This goes well past sexual desire to deeply unexplainable feelings for someone. If someone suddenly has a strong emotional pull towards a stranger, an old colleague, or ex, it could be a sign of a love spell. It's a love that doesn't feel logical in any way, and the person they're drawn to is most likely well outside their normal type. It produces a feeling of craving something that feels unattainable.

18. They start drinking or turning to substances

Image Source: Reddit

This one may surprise you, but a super negative side effect of a love spell is the person who has been placed under it might resort to drinking or substance abuse. You might wonder why, but as you can see from these other signs, being under a love spell can be quite stressful. Because of this stressful situation where it feels like there is no relief, some people might turn to alcohol to ease the pain. If you notice a big behavioral change like this, and the person mentions a specific person that they can't stop thinking about, it might be a sign!

19. There's an atmosphere shift

Image Source: Reddit

So this is pretty wild, but experts say that one sign of a love spell is when the person under the spell consistently starts smelling the scent of the person who cast the spell. It might be a really specific perfume, or just a natural, pheromonal scent of that person. If someone mentions that they are so consumed to the point where they can smell the person out in public, this is a pretty big sign that they're under a love spell. Attraction happens through pheromones, so it makes sense that this is a big indicator.

20. It's as if their name is being called by someone

Image Source: Reddit

This is another big sign that someone is under a love spell. They constantly feel as though their name is being called out in public, specifically by the person who cast it. That's kinda scary! This sign is not as common as others, according to experts, so if it happens to you, then pay attention! It might not sound like a shout, it could be a whisper or an echo. The person who cast the spell is making you hear their voice to pull you in, almost like a siren. Would you want to have this happen to you?

21. They're experiencing insomnia

Image Source: Reddit

We've already addressed love spells and how they make the person feel tired or affect their dreams. But experts on the topic say that it can go a step further into full-blown insomnia. Again, because of the obsession with the person who placed the spell, the person under the spell might not be able to sleep AT ALL. It could be accompanied by anxiety or a feeling of curiosity that can't be satiated. Their mind is filled with worries about the person who cast the spell and how they can reach them.

22. They've become very sentimental

Image Source: Reddit

Someone who's under the influence of a love spell can be overtaken by sentimental feelings towards the person who cast the spell. This may outplay as the person being sensitive towards everything and everyone around them. The person may have been quite stable before, but now they're incredibly emotionally volatile, going from happy to sad over just about anything. These feelings can lead to anxiety and depression, all due to the obsession with the person who cast the spell. Seems pretty miserable!

23. There's a sense of guilt or shame

Image Source: Reddit

Someone who's been put under a love spell will likely also be overwhelmed with feelings of guilt or even shame. This is due to the fact that when someone's under a love spell, they KNOW they're consumed with someone, but at the same time, they also don't feel good enough for that person who cast the spell or like that person could never love them back. This can cause immense guilt to rise up within the person, because they feel as though they can never measure up and don't know what to do with the feelings they're experiencing.

24. They distance themselves from their family

Image Source: Reddit

No one wants to willingly be estranged from their family, but this is a common side effect of being under a love spell. Because the person is not acting like his or herself, and because they have lost complete interest in anything other than the spell caster, they no longer want to be in the presence of their family. This, of course, can cause feelings of resentment both within the person and within the family, resulting in a distancing. The presence of the family does not satisfy the person under the spell.

25. The same goes for friends

Image Source: Reddit

It makes sense then, that besides distancing from family, the person under the spell also pushes away any close friendships. They're unable to hang out or go to social events, because the only place that they feel they belong is next to the person who cast the spell. This means that the person eventually stops seeing their friends and loved ones, so this creates a natural distance, and the relationships grow apart. This can contribute to the depression we mentioned, as well as a loss of previous interests.

26. They don't know who they are anymore

Image Source: Reddit

One of the saddest parts of being under a love spell is that it causes that person to lose his or herself. Every waking moment is consumed by the specific person, and any other thoughts are not allowed to enter your mind. The only thing you can see is that person, while also feeling as though you don't deserve them. This causes you to forget who you are as your true self, and it also causes you to lose sight of things that you want in your life. It's almost like being mentally ill. You also lose those close to you, so your sense of identity is stripped from you.

27. There's a feeling of helplessness

Image Source: Reddit

When someone's under a love spell, for the most part, the spell will remain in effect to the point where they can think of nothing else. That being said, there may be moments of clarity where the person can see what's happening to them and what is going on. But the worst part is that it's like being trapped. Even if the person has a moment where they're conscious of the situation, they're nothing that they can do to escape it because they are bound by the spell. So is there any way to break a love spell?

28. This is how to break it

Image Source: Reddit

If you think that you or someone you love is under a love spell, there are a few things that you can do to break it. The biggest thing is to pull yourself out of isolation. Because of the obsession that comes with a love spell, the person who's under it will often find themselves alone and depressed. So if you become conscious of this, it's important to surround yourself with people who love you and know you and let them know what's going on. These people will be able to speak truth to you about who you are and what's important to you.

29. You can also try herbal remedies

Image Source: Reddit

Experts say that if you don't have access to someone who can help you break a love spell, there are a few herbal remedies you can try. Basil, rosemary, and lavender in particular are known to help break a love spell. These herbs have protective properties to them that can work against any negative energies that the spell has placed around you. Experts in this space say to follow your intuition here and create a combination of the herbs that feels right for you. Some of these herbs are ingestible or can be placed on the soles of your feet for protection. Just do some research first!

30. So do love spells really work?

Image Source: Reddit

Many people wholeheartedly believe in the power of love spells. In fact, those who practice consider them to be some of the most powerful spells. Love spells are incredibly potent, and while the intention is not to harm, they can very easily cause damage to everyone involved. The bond that is created from a love spell is not natural, and therefore, it messes with the organic nature of love between two people. So this is definitely a "use at your own risk" sort of thing! Would you do a love spell on someone?
