Is it love or lust?
This is a very deep question and a lot of times it is very hard to tell. A man can be completely consumed by lust and it may come off as love. That is how men work most of the time. You know how they say “a woman gives sex for intimacy and a man gives intimacy for sex”? That is very true and that is the difference between love and lust.
A woman may truly love so she will sacrifice her body to feel loved back, then on the other hand a man may pretend to love so his lust can be fulfilled. It’s a very scary situation for a lot of women because it’s hard to tell if a man is infatuated with you in a lustful way or in a loving way.
The sad thing is that a lot of times only “time” can tell. The characteristics of the two are identical almost but there is a tell-all that a lot of people don’t know about. It’s the sex factor! When a man is consumed by lust he always wants a tangible reinforcer. He desires physical action all the time!! When a man is consumed by love then he can appreciate the intimate moments without sex. He can kiss and hold and not have to go all the way. He can give you massage and then roll over and go to sleep. He can “please” you and then not ask to be “pleased” in return. That is LOVE! That is the tell-all.
So when finding out if it’s love or lust, BE CAREFUL! You don’t want to misread and give in to soon! The key to it is to let time tell it all! If he waits on you to give in then he will form love either way, but if you give in thinking he is in love before he actually is then you are risking getting left.
Be Careful and God Bless!
