Fall for的意思

"Fall for" is an English idiom that means to become romantically attracted to or in love with someone. It can also mean to be deceived by or to believe something that is not true. Here are some examples of how "fall for" is used in both contexts:

1. Romantic Attraction or Love:

   • "She fell for him after they went on a few dates."
   • "I never thought I'd fall for someone so quickly, but it happened."

2. Deception or Believing Something Untrue:

   • "Don't fall for his lies; he's not telling the truth."
   • "She fell for the email scam and lost all her savings."

The phrase "fall for" comes from the idea of falling down or being unable to resist something, which metaphorically describes the feeling of being overwhelmed by romantic feelings or being tricked into believing something.
