How Vital is to know the difference between infatuation, love and lust? Women often fail to understand the feelings although they are more mature than their male counterparts in terms of feelings and emotions.

There is no simple formula to interpret someone’s feelings towards you still there are certain ways which can help you know the difference between infatuation, love and lust. Understanding the difference between infatuation, love or lust is vital otherwise you may feel dejected when it’s over.

If you are feeling for someone but also feeling perplexed about his mixed reactions at times, worrying about what he might be thinking then the following tips will help you understand the difference between infatuation, love and lust.

  1. Since old days women/girl use to write their feeling towards a guy on paper these things could be romantic walk, holding hands, arguing on silly topics, love, butterflies, anger, flirt etc.
  2. Now, you have listed all the feelings on paper; simply mark these emotions with different colors. E.g. Red for lust, yellow for infatuation and green for Love. The colors can be different but the most vital part is to be able to visually differentiate which color (feeling) is dominating the page. Typically, you can mark the difference here only but if you are still confused follow further steps.
  3. It would be wise to take an opinion about your boy friend from an utter stranger and listen to what he/she has to say about your man. Honest opinion is what you need so think wisely and if possible let the stranger know about your relationship and ask his honest opinion. He/she got nothing to do with both of you so he/she can suggest stuff without taking sides.
  4. Watch romantic movies which can sometime tell you the difference between these three emotions e.g {Cruel Intentions – Lust}, {Titanic, Down to You – Love} and {The Phantom of the Opera – Some parts of Infatuation}. Remember movies are always inspired by the people’s thought so they can give you fair amount of idea about these feelings.
  5. “Love is what is shown in movies” – Incorrect, when you are in love it doesn’t matter that you spruce up properly just to be with him but what’s important is to be with each other and enjoy every second of life. Love is not about taking but it’s about giving so do not expect everything from.

I think if you think wisely and take honest opinion from a complete stranger you will be able to differentiate between infatuation, love and lust. If it’s all about lust then you know what to do (simply call it off). If you know that it is infatuation then give it sometime and see if the feelings are still that strong like before. If it is love then wait no further and express yourself.
