Is depends on your perspective.

“Falling in love” and “love” are quite different from each other.

That said, yeah, the feeling can be quite fleeting. Being a chemical response doesn’t make it less intense or even less meaningful, though. Sadly? Fortunately? 🤷‍♂️

A number of tells. Here’s my shortlist.

• Missing work, school, or other important obligations. Basically neglecting responsibilities.
• Preferring online interactions over face-to-face ones. On the phone all the time, even when with people.
• Anxious, irritable, or depressed when not online
• Losing track of time while online.
• Sleep deprived.
• Not sure how to answer when asked how much they’re online

Don’t ask how I know…

Yes. :)

Wait… no. :-o

I am not sure anymore. ( • - • ) …

Document your code. Or even better in many cases, write more self-documenting code.
