Most of us embark on relationships without full Knowledge about what we feel, some people picture their love life as a telemundo series.
Thinking that every little encounter with a dazzling individual will lead to love. Majority of us still have this mentality that with money everything; including love, is answerable.
I had this argument with a friend, he said that love is witnessed only when money is involved, though the argument was tough, he refused to eat his words.
Lust in the other contrast is nothing but temporary pleasure or satisfaction. It's also a strong desire for something. As we can see what most people call love ain't love but lust, for love is not just an emotion, it's a commitment. It doesn't end there, love is a constant feeling for someone.
For example, the type of affection a mother has for her child; is one of such examples. If the above definitions show the difference between Love and Lust, why then would one say without money there cease to be love.
According to a friend: Lust is that initial desire to be with a person, while love is the desire to stay with him or her.
They are both emotions felt by a person towards a person or an object, but when you feel lust for someone, generally you’re just attracted to him or her by desire; you don’t have that deep emotional connection that you feel when you love a person.
When you are in love, you will find yourself connecting with the other person and feeling an emotional engagement with him or her.
Lust sets you out looking for romance, which helps narrow down a potential mate from the world’s dating pool. Lust generally takes the form of a deep physical attraction for the other person that may never turn into a mental connection.
You see that love is not just an emotion it's also a connection, that connection brings about joy, faithfulness in any relationship.
Lust is an emotion triggered by desire; it seems like love, but dies down when that desire is fulfilled. Lust is not only present in relationships alone, but also in our every day lives.
The joy you feel at the sight of a meal when hungry, will surely die when that desire is fulfilled. To most of us that have favourite dishes, you do notice that, you continue eating your favourite food even when you are okay.
Until your marginal utility hits a minimum. Your love for a person or an object remains the same, no matter the situation or condition. Even when you have conflicting interest with that person, you still feel that soft spot towards that individual.
I have always asked, if there is anything like true love? Many answers have been given, some against it, others for it. If true love exists it will be noted as an undying love, a perfect feeling that will never fade or wither no matter the situation. This type of affection is displayed by God towards us.
For this love He sent his only begotten son to die in atonement for our sins. Will any love be greater than this, or more perfect than His love for humanity. Some people do tagged their love as true love, but you see bruises all over the ladies face every week. How true is this love?

-You’re interested in having sex, but not in having conversations.
-You’d rather keep the relationship on a fantasy level, not discuss real feelings.
-You want to leave soon after sex rather than cuddling or breakfast the next morning.

Love is patient and kind, it's never jealous. Love is never boastful or conceited. It is never rude or selfish, it does not take offense and it is not resentful (copied). The above are the attributes of true love, and they are never seen in lust. Love is pure, Lust is purely the opposite.
