LOVE AND LUST (DIFFERENCES)

Some weeks back, I forwarded the similarities between lust and love and I promised to forward the differences as soon as possible before I went on a short break.
Here are the differences

1. Love takes a long process, the feelings grow in time but lust is felt instantly and it can also cause damages to one’s heart

2. Love doesn’t play with one’s heart but lust is a game played in the mind

3. Lust is what keeps you wanting to do it even when you have no desire to be with each other. Love is what makes you want to be with each other even when you have no desire to do it

4. Love focus on one person while lust may claim to be in love with several people at the same time

5. Love promotes positive behavior while lust has devastating and destructive effect

6. True love believes in compatibility while lust disregards it

7. Love is selfless, lust is selfish

8. Love is about who you are and who the other person is and not what he/she has

9. Love is about what you can give while lust is about what you can get

10. Love is euphoric feeling while lust focus on sex

11. Love is about passion, attachment, intimacy, commitment while lust is about sexual desire

12. Love is a connection of your soul with someone else’s. It’s settling your differences, dealing with conflicts as one person, not two separate entities while lust is the desire and belief that everything is yours. No thought put into the other person’s feelings

13. Love does not expect anything in return and desiring the best for the other person while lust is caring about the other person because of what he or she can give to us.

It is very important to remind you that both LOVE AND LUST can lead to marriage. One is lasting but the other is not. Be careful to venture into any relationship because these two entities look alike and very difficult to differenciate. It takes the grace of God to differnciate them.

Also, note that how people act in love or think in love is influenced by their conceptions of love.
Finally, I wish a successful relationship and may the almighty God open your eyes to make your decisions right.

AT MAXIMUM IMPACT NETWORK, WE VOTE FOR SEXUAL PURITY.

I LOVE YOU

TOGETHER, WE SHALL BUILD A DESIRABLE NIGERIA.
