Yes, Love & Infatuation are two different things & many times it happens that infatuation is misunderstood as love!

We'll feelings are feelings but misunderstanding feelings will surely cause huge damage because the ultimate conclusion will either separate the duo or create an awkward situation, hence it's praiseworthy to understand a clear picture about your own feelings & then confess about it. Knowing ownself isn't harmful, but assuming the love quotient is definitely not preferable.

Take a quick note of these 3 questions & it shall help you understand about your feelings in a Better Way

Love & Infatuation both can occur at any stage of life & neither of it is wrong but it's good to know the difference between the terms.

  • Is it only about Physical touch or It's more about Emotional Bond?

If you share a stronger emotional bond without any sort of physical connectivity or intimacy & it's purely about the sense of belonging to each other! Cheers, You are in love!

Infatuation tends to be more about physical attraction. If you share a bond which has lesser or no emotional connectivity, then it's definitely not Love

  • Do you have to make special efforts for being loyal or it just comes effortlessly?

Always remember when you have to specially make efforts to stay loyal or when it just doesn't come naturally we can't consider it as love, one who is in love will effortlessly stay loyal.

However, in initial stages of infatuation two of them are loyal but once the physical attraction reduces loyalty issues will immediately pop up.

  • Do you feel you have to offer too much to make this relationship work?

Infatuation can be self-destructive whereas Love can heal you. When it's the love you will find your self happy without any terms & conditions. The sense of satisfaction will make your life better. It doesn't mean infatuation doesn't make one feel happy, but here we are talking about boundless happiness which keeps the smile intact without any reason.

Infatuation isn't wrong!

Just be clear about the feelings because ultimately knowing your feelings will help you live a better life, confess your feelings without any fear. Just make sure that if its infatuation, then are you sure you want to proceed further with it? Think & Take Decision because ultimately the decision will affect the lives of two people.

Just be true to your feelings that's the bottom line!
