Are You In Love? or Are You In Lust?

 

A lot of times lust comes from an adrenaline feeling and the desired state, so a lot of times we get confused with love and lust because we're so much dopamine and adrenaline is flowing in our body that we feel that this is love because we're at a heightened state.

Typically when we are in lust with someone they are taking a hold on our emotions, our sexual presence and also our mentality. Our mental thoughts that we may be obsessively think over them, we get very emotional about them.  We are tied emotionally to them for example, if they contact us we get happy instead of still being happy even if don't hear from them throughout the day and we sexually fantasize into that.

Lust is very prominent when it comes to sexual relationships to guys. Lusting relationships can happen because we lack experience dating and socializing that the one person that gives us that interaction, we begin to fantasize about them. 

Sometimes lust can happen in the form of a trauma bond where this person is triggering your traumas and you feel you need to convince them to love you. Let say one of your traumas is you were abandoned constantly as a child and she threatens that she is going to leave you, so you're constantly triggered and instead of noticing that this is a trauma bond what you do is, you convince them to stay with you, ignoring your needs, your integrity and lose yourself in the relationship.

Lust also happens when you are infatuated with the woman's beauty and intimacy where it is getting out of control. Because you never experience this before, you think that this person is the one based on infatuation of beauty and intimacy.  What happens is you become preoccupied because lustful relationships are typically driven by the sexual experiences that you have with this person

On the other hand, love is a mutual feeling, it is passionate and compassionate whereas lust is purely sexual attraction. Love like lust is based on feelings but more on the compatibility with the other person. The two of you are aligned with your goals and values in life.
