Love vs. Lust
Understanding Emotional connection versus Physical Attraction.
Love vs. Lust
"Is this real love, or just an irresistible attraction?"
We’ve all been there, swept off our feet by a connection so intense that it feels like we’ve found “The One.” The butterflies in your stomach, the heart racing at the mere thought of them, the magnetic pull of their presence, it’s intoxicating. But is it love, or is it just lust playing tricks on your heart?
The line between love and lust is often blurred, especially in the early stages of a relationship. While both can make your heart skip a beat, one is deeply rooted in emotions, connection, and longevity, while the other thrives on passion, desire, and physical attraction. Understanding the difference can help you navigate relationships with clarity and intention.
Love vs. Lust
What is Lust?
Lust is a powerful, almost uncontrollable force. It is the initial spark that lights up when you meet someone new. It’s intense, intoxicating, and often driven by physical attraction. Lust is what makes you want to be near someone, to touch them, to lose yourself in their presence. It’s the thrill of the chase, the excitement of wanting more.
Love vs. Lust
Signs You’re Experiencing Lust:
1. It’s all about physical attraction
2. Deep conversations are rare.
3. You focus on the moment, not the future
4. There’s little emotional support.
5. It fades quickly.
Lust isn’t bad, it’s exciting and can be a great starting point. But it isn’t enough to build a lasting relationship.
