Love, or lust. Why do people get these 2 things confused?. Maybe because they are both forms of emotions. To get them mixed up will and does cause nothing but hurt. To be in love is a wonderful feeling, probably the best feeling in the world especially if your partner loves you back. It can also be very scarey because you know that this person that you love may one day hurt you or vice versa in one way or another. It is not always intentional. We often hurt those closest to us.
Lust is a sexual desire. To lust after someone, to want that person, to crave for that person, is lust. What happens when you eventually satisfy your craving? What if it does not develop into the relationship that you were hoping for? Some people will get that person they crave for and then convince themself that they love them. They then find it hard to accept if the feeling is not mutual. In cases like this lust can then become an obsession, to the point of stalking. I think that part of it is not being able to accept rejection, after all nobody likes to be rejected. Extream yes but I personally know people this has happened to. I think that it is so important to know yourself and what you want or are looking for and not mistake the two emotions. I am sure that most of us at some point in our life has had a crush on someone, weather it be a secret crush, a crush on someone when you was at school, or a crush that you took a step further. There is absoloutly nothing wrong with this, it is normal human behaviour, it just depends on how you deal with it and how in control of your feelings you are.
If you have ever experienced true love, this is a mistake you will not make.
Please note that this is my personal opinion..
