I guess the primary difference between lust and love is sex. Whilst sex is a very important part of any any relationship, someone in love will view sex as the ultimate expression of that love.
Someone who's 'in lust' will definitely be interested in the sex, but once the novelty has worn off the spark may go too.
What's the difference between lust and love?
I think this question is actually really difficult to answer because it assumes that the two are mutually exclusive. The way I see it, lust plays an important part in love - especially at the beginning of a relationship.
Before you fall in love with someone, there has to be that head-turning attraction, that chemistry that lets you know straight away that something is going on. You don't have to know someone particularly well to have that feeling - it may be directed towards someone that you've only met a few times, but it's a relentless and powerful feeling nonetheless.
The difficulty in distinguishing the two comes in the fact that lust can often lead to love.
What starts off as just a passionate attraction can soon become a serious connection.
How do I know if I'm in love?
Unfortunately, you'll only know if love is genuine once you've dived in head first. Lust tends to wear off; love is a feeling that can't be changed. To find out you'll need to give a relationship time, trust and devotion. Yes, this can lead to heartbreak if things don't work out, but it can be indescribably rewarding when they do!
