I lust after him constantly, so is that just Lust, or am I temporarily Infatuated? But I really think I’m in Love… because I like everything about him.
Is that why there is so much divorce? Because it’s hard to know the difference?
You’ll know if it’s infatuation, because it will start to die within a year. Lust is physical and doesn’t necessarily indicate true love. Love is a feeling, but it is also a behavior. If you love him, you will truly want him to be well and happy; and you will do everything you can to further that, even to your own detriment. If he tells you about something that’s bothering him, and your first thought is of how it will affect you, you’re not in love.

Love is a decision. Marriage is a commitment. Infatuation and Lust are feelings.
