Is It Love Or Infatuation?

Have you been thinking a lot about that guy lately? After we have talked tried to differentiate Love from Lust, Obsession from LoveCould it be love or just an infatuation? Well, If you are standing in the land of doubts, then read forth to know if you really are in love:

• Love is an enormous affection that you feel for him/her whereas in infatuation you have an emotional requirement or urgency of him/her which is most of the time unreasonable. Infatuation in the terminology of contemporary youth means having a crush on someone.
• A firm sense of faithfulness, responsibility and a heart to sacrifice for others defines love, whereas, a sexual desire, attraction powerful enough to make you fall into wrong choices or uncertain and perilous choices stand to define infatuation.
• Where on one hand if you value things in your life, it’s because of the existence of love, on the other hand, in infatuation, you tend to incautiously and carelessly abandon what you have for the mere fulfilment of a bunch of unjustified whims and desires, whether financial or sexual.
• One of the most important distinction between these two kinds of attractions is that love usually happens eventually while infatuation happens instantly.
• Love is all about heart’s and mind’s rejuvenation which in most of the cases leads to the beautiful union of marriage and togetherness. Infatuation begins spontaneously and ends spontaneously as well. If infatuation is mistaken for love by any one of the people, all it leads to is a heart break or a one sided love.
• Where love is not just about physical attraction, infatuation is all about bodily desirability or allure.

They do not love that do not show their love. The course of true love never did run smooth. Love is a familiar. Love is a devil. There is no evil angel but Love.”
― William Shakespeare
