Back when it all started:
An Emarati friend I haven't seen in a week: "OMG Nella! you lost weight! and your eyes are glowing! You're in love, aren't you?"
When it was all over:
A cousin I haven't seen in a week: "OMG Nella! you lost weight! and you look tired and..like you're sick. are you..like..in love or something?"

Its natural that ppl usually see what they want to see..
lol happens all the time. Don't sweat it ...
I don't know why but your post reminded me of this quote. It's very cyncial but I still love it:
"Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn’t it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life…You give them a piece of you. They didn’t ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn’t your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like ‘maybe we should be just friends’ turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It’s a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love."
Then again love can be beautiful I guess. Just keep on holding on to faith.

I can almost swear I heard this quote before and liked it a lot too! can't remember where though..help? xD
I once read it on my cousin's facebook profile and I remembered it when I read your post. Anyway, I googled it again and I guess it's a quote by an author called Neil Gaiman.
