How does love and infatuation differ from each other while they both feel the same?

I know exactly what you mean. You know we studied about this in school and at that time I had a boyfriend. And when they said the things that were in an infatuation it made me think about how I was feeling about my boyfriend. Well I went into denial and then went on to marry him. And it turned out to be that it was infatuation. We divorced because I strayed and if it was love we would have still been together........

loving someone doesn't just mean that you will be forever. i guess it would be love if you just felt it and never had second thoughts. sometimes, the person we love isn't just what the Lord had planned for us.

i'm confused too! haha. we get mixed up between love and infatuation all the time. it's hard to tell which one we are feeling, whether it's love or infatuation because both results in providing us wonderful and amazing feelings:D perhaps a relationship starts off as infatuation for some people. and over time, that attraction and infatuation may develop into love..maybe..dunno.. btw, check out this site;http://www.eeleen.com/2007/03/06/difference-between-love-and-infatuation/

To me love are something that need a lot of time to nurture. It's not easy to reach love. There are so many things to consider. It is very complicated too. While, infatuation is someone who like a her/him but this relationship don't last long.

In my own opinion, infatuation are feelings WITH REASONS while love DOESN'T HAVE REASONS... It is infatuation if you think you love someone just because you always think of him, you miss his company, you enjoy talking to him... If you love him but cannot figure out why, then it's LOVE. It has reasons that only the heart can understand.
