Love or Lust

[Boy_Wonder06]

Hey i need some help i duno if this is general or should be in the love and relationships forum but im sure it will be moved if need be....

Well here it goes, theres this person i realli realli like, we've kissed before bt they were with sumone else, so it was kidna wrong, but this kiss was so so so nice, all i can think about is the kiss, i can see there face everywhere i look, and its driving me insane... So my question is it love or lust???

love and lust. it's always hard to tell between the two. i guess it would depend on the way you think of her. if you're thinking about her way more sexually then I would have to say it would be lust. i mean, sure, there's nothing wrong with thinking of her in a sexual way but if that's all you ever think about when she is on your mind, i'd have to say it's more lust than love

Yeah I know lust man you think of them constantly in sexual context. Love is closer to a split between hell and heaven. being around them is heaven but the thought of losing them is hell. This is the main reason its hard to admit to loving someone especially to them. My first and so far only love has told me that she loves me but is not in love with me. This is easy to accept if you can deal with just being friends. I have lusted after had crushes and was even infatuated with a girl but this time I feel like being with her would bring me pure joy and make me feel complete. At one point i thought she was going to cut our relationship off completely and that week was a literal hell. So in general there is what love is like or at least my experience of it
