The 4 letter word called "love" has been so used and abused by different people to express different feelings, to the extent that one finds it difficult when one crosses the love boundary into that of infatuation and lust. Pls my dear Naijapals help me draw clear line between love and its sisters, infatuation and lust. Thanks.

There is nothing as love at first site it is lust and infatuation, love dont just happen it is built with time it grows gradually before it turns love. These days its No love cause our gurls no go send you if you cant make there hair etc, if any gurl/boy tell you he/she loves you when you just meet, just know he/she loves you for other reasons not you as you are, No more true love and I wont blame anybody for that cause he/she might have been hurt by love b4.

love,infatuation and lust...love is a gradual process,infatuation is all about trying to know someone by having that extravagant emotional excitement.just a short lived attraction.while lust is like daydreaming of segxwal pleasure/desire with someone.some cases the person is out of reach and u just have that bodily appetite for her oroma nkirisi and punani.... at the end of the day all comes down to feelings..so poster which one you fall in recently?

These days, it seems the line between love, infatuation and lust has become so thin that you cant really see it until certain things happen

A situation where love is defined as a profoundly tender or passionate affection for another person, and lust is a passionate or overmastering desire or craving while infatuation is foolish or all-absorbing passion, how do we know when our love becomes lust or infatuation. I ask this because, to me, they are all the same but with difference with regards to degree and motive.

I disagree with u jukkiebukwes. It is not possible for infatuation to precede love. The proper order should be lust-love-infatuation.

u r complaining about people abusing the word 'love' in ur previous write-up while doing the same here..

love= unconditional and endures everything.

infatuation = *crush*some kind of 'puppy love'.... showing of extravagant emotional excitement which doesn't last.in other words, it's limited. coz its mostly based on mere physical appearance.

lust= is simple as daydreaming!! (e.g) someone wishing to phyuk beyonce or J.lo..it's the list among the three.

so mr.poster stop getting confused bcoz "if it's not panadol e no b the same thing like panadol.. fullstop!!! now i rest my case.
