Love Vs Lust? Or Just Fuck It!
“Lust feels like Love until it’s time to make a sacrifice!”
When people start dating they often find themselves confused if the relationship is about Love or Lust? There is a thin line between love and lust, but the difference can be spotted easily. It is indeed easier said than done, but we’ll help you with a guide that will definitely make things clear for you.
As a lot of us know Love means an intense feeling of deep affection for a person while Lust means a strong sexual desire for a person. Love might have lust too but it is more intense on an emotional level and Lust might transform into Love also, but it is not always the case.
Brain chemistry is very tricky but not that complicated. How can you tell if the sensations that you have are Love-driven or Lust driven? To know the difference better here’s what you should take into account:
Lust is purely physical while Love is all about emotional attachments
When all you can think is to have sex with the other person and get into their pants, it is definitely Lust. Love feels like you still want to have sex but only to get closer to them emotionally, to build a stronger bond. In Love, you just want to spend time with the other person and share intimacy with them, while Lust is all about sex and the adrenaline that you get from it without being emotionally available.
Lust is short-lived while Love is slow and steady
Lust is usually a fire inside you that burns only until the partner is inside you and after that, it dies. On the other hand, Love is all about you slowly and steadily craving the other person more, thinking about them all day and every day. Lust gives you temporary happiness and satisfaction while Love always leaves you wanting more.
Lust is your desire and Love is your desire for them
Lust is you wanting them inside you and being there for you sexually to fulfil the temporary urge that you have, while Love is your desire for them, at any time or moment. You wanting to have sex with them is Lust while you wanting in their entirety is Love. When you Lust for someone, you have to have them in your bed while if you Love someone, you just want them in your life. Lust is about you while love is about them. Lust is more about fulfilling selfish needs while Love is more about them and their needs.
Lust shrinks with time while Love grows with time
If you want them more and more every day then it’s Love, but if your desire to have them fades a little bit each time you meet them then it was and is just Lust. Lust is deeply rooted in intense desires and demands that shrink after each supply, while Love is deeply rooted in vibing and bonding that grows and leaves you wanting more.
Lust and Love might look the same initially but gradually Lust fades while Love grows. Lust feels like sprinting while Love feels like a marathon.
Lust is sexual while Love is friendship
Lust is being a little uncomfortable around each other physically and emotionally while love is being overly comfortable around each other and enjoy doing mundane things together. While Love is more like friendship, where you just want to go on dates or hang out together, spend time together and it never gets boring, Lust is more of a missing chemistry between you two outside of the bedroom. Apart from sexual energies, you don’t feel anything with them. Lust is when all the fun and fire that you have with them is in the bedroom while Love is all about the butterflies that are always fluttering inside your stomach no matter what you two do or where you two are.
