It's easy to confuse love and infatuation. Infatuation may seem like love, and it is often intense, but there are several important differences. Understanding the differences between love, lust and infatuation can save you a lot of pain in relationships and help you to know when it really is love.

Unconditional Love is a devotion based on commitment and unselfish concern for one another. It freely accepts another in loyalty and seeks his or her good. Love is patient.

Lust is an intense sexual desire or appetite, an overwhelming desire, as in lust for power. A sexual urge or physical impulse.

Infatuation is an unrealistic or extravagant love or admiration appealing to the senses and impulses, sometimes called lust. Infatuation may be the initial attraction that will, with the time and commitment, grow into a mature and unconditional love.

"Love waits. Lust wants. Love cannot wait to give what is true and honorable. Lust can't wait to take. Love mends. Lust hurts. Love is secure. Lust is selfish. Lust ends. Love lasts."
