Lust Vs. Love, Can You Tell The Difference?

Butterflies in the stomach, long soul-searching eye contact, the gentle caress of a hand on yours, the raw aching spreading throughout your body for this other soul, is it love or lust? How does one tell?




_________________________________________________________________________________

#1 "Does he love me or just lust for me?"

We all question if it's love or lust at some point in our relationships. As much as we wish we can't always
 identify between the two when caught up in the heat of the moment. It's confusing when sex and love
are so closely intertwined. Just because that couple on Facebook is making out in front of lakes and
taking selfies in the bedroom doesn't mean they're going to last. There's a good probability their lust
will fizzle out before they realize how lame they truly are.

So how can you tell if what you have is real or one inconsistent orgasm away from an unanswered text?
When does lust become love? How can you tell if what you have is just a heightened libido or real butterflies?

#2 With love, you care about what drugs they're on; with lust, you feel like you're on drugs.

Intimacy with others affects the brain. When you're lusting after someone you're craving the hormones that give you a
"high." When you've woken up from that dream and still want to lie next to your partner, you're in love.

#3 With love, you want to know everything; with lust, you talk about nothing.

You can tell this person anything about yourself, even if the truth doesn't flatter you, and you know that your
 partner will accept you.

#4 You want to honestly listen to each other's feelings, make each other happy.

When difficulties come up for with your partner, you're there to support them.

#5 With love, you want to be together all the time; in lust, you want to be together all the time.

Whether or not this is actually the person of your dreams, you should always want to be together. When it’s
 just lust, you’re fueled by hormones. When it’s love, you’re fueled by a different kind of burning.

#6 With love, you can't see your partner’s face; with lust, you love your partner’s face.

When you’re in love, it’s hard to truly see your partner. At least, you don’t see him or her in the way the rest of the world
 does. You see your lover’s essence, his or her very being, layered deep under the outer shell that’s visible to the world.

The physical beauty you were once so attracted to becomes unimportant. Even if you’re still attracted to this person,
your attraction has changed. You don’t care about good looks; you care about this person’s soul.

#7 They're reassuring.

When your relationship isn't flowing as smoothly as you would like, you're able to be with what is and trust that
things are and will be fine.
