Love and Lust

you can have lust without love, and love without lust. After all, you love your parents and your children-- love is that state when the other person's happiness is essential to your own. Lust, crush, infatuation is like a roller coaster-- one minute you are so happy you want to go crazy, the first argument you're sure you're going to die-- and lust is that undisciplined as well. Love is patient, love is kind-- love is feeling like you are home whenever you see that person. If something happened to my other half and we could never be intimate again, neither of us would care-- because he is my "home" and I am his. Falling in love has nothing to do with really BEING in love or STAYING in love--falling in love is the chemical attraction that brings two people together initially. If they are emotional mature and receptive to love, that chemical attraction is replaced, to some extent, with an intellectual and emotional attraction-- lust is exchanged for intimacy. My grandmother was married fifty years, and when I asked her once if she and my grandfather still "had fun", she said they had fun every day--- and when I clarified it to "slept together....you know... THAT...! She sat and thought for a few minutes and said she couldn't remember when that had last happened, but love was what remained long after the fire had burned low-- because the fire became ashes, but the love only grew warmer.

These terms are different. First, I think two people in lust are really attracted to each other that is why there is lust between them. They may like each other but love may not exist between them. Love in its deepest sense is unconditional, one who is in love will sacrifice everything for the one he/she loves. Love and lust can go together, there is lust in love, there is love in lust also, there may be love without lust and there may be lust without love. LOL.

At a certain time, I had also thought of that. I got involved with a person way back. I know I love him with all my heart. We just weren't able to continue the relationship for personal reasons. Anyway, when I look back now, I think I know that it was love. It wasn't lust that drew us together. Love is when you feel how important the person is to you. And showing how much you feel by doing certain things beyond marriage shouldn't be classified as lust. Lust only happens if you are you physically attracted to a person and no love is involved.

Hi friend, there is lot of difference between real love and infatuation. Mostly people will get infatuations easily in their teen ages and thought it is the real love. But it is very rare to get real love in our teen age, since we don't have more maturity in the teen age and get crushes and infatuations easily with the opposite gender persons at this stage. Real and sincere love never lets you to forget about the person whoever you loves, i.e you will always think about the person and don't have the ability to forget about his/her thought even a single second. If you are suffered with real and sincere love, you don't get a proper sleep and get frequent confusions due to the thinking of your beloved persons. You are ready to do anything and every thing to impress your beloved person and try your maximum to win over his/her heart. Mostly infatuations requires the physical touch and you are interested in hugs and kisses with your beloved person if you are in crush, but sincere love don't requires this kind of physical activities. It requires the mental activities and always remember and recall about the events which you spent with your beloved person. If you are in crush or infatuation, you don't think about your loved ones forever, you will get their thoughts every now and then. Real love can change you a lot. After getting true love, you will change yourself based on the needs and necessities of your beloved person You started to like the things whichever s/he likes and starts to listen the slow songs. Always get happiness while thinking about your beloved person and you feel shy whenever s/he is around. You don't have the ability to propose the real love directly and propose it indirectly and search for words to propose and express your real thoughts to your beloved person. If you are in crush, you don't get this kind of shyness and you can express your feelings and emotions easily without hesitation. It is really hard to forget about your beloved one even after the break up, if your love is sincere. You never forget about your lover till your life end, it is the uniqueness of the sincere love and you don't have the ability to tolerate their pains and vain. You can easily forget about your ex and move with the new person if you are in infatuation. In short infatuation is just the physical requirement and temporary one, whereas real love gives importance to the inner heart and soul.

Definitely, there is a big difference between the two entities. Love is a genuine feeling, while lust is for play like a game.

U r true in some pointer but they both r very different things .luv is somthing that comes from our hear but list comes from our eyes as luv is felling for some one where as list is just a physical attraction. I known that if u luv some one u have that sexusl feeling for them . But list is for a short time as once u r satisfied u will have no feeling for them but in luv itvremains for lifelong.

That is correct there friend when someone just have a new lover,many would questioned you if it is really love or just lust why you fallen to the person?I just know it is really love when you have the untarnishing feelings to the person.If you are just attracted to physical appeals it could be just lust because you did not consider the other aspects of caring the person.Your love is only very shallow that it could not digest the essence understanding,the protection,the caring and most of all the everlasting affection.

I agree with you that they go hand in hand. However, for some people, they don't feel love towards the other person immediately. They aren't sure of their feelings yet. They get attracted but they are still looking for some reasons why to love the other person. Happy mylotting.
