Love vs Infatuation

[Pillz]

What is love to you? What is infatuation? What is friendship?

How do you know when friendship turns to love? Is it possible love is just friendship met with infatuation and sex? Are there different kinds of love?

Share me your feels, bros.


Also; irrelevant but so nobody else feels inclined to spam WHAT IS LOVE jokes, here is the song and the gif.

I actually wrote a small essay about true love last year in response to a short story that I read. This is part of how I described it.

   Love is not restricted by the laws of attraction or its use as a synonym for the word like. In a normal, mostly functional family there is a loving bond between immediate members and most extended relatives. A person can also love a friend in the same way that they love a brother or sister. When a group of humans are thrown into a stressful situation, such as a fight with relative success, this loving bond can also form. This love is different from true love, love due to attraction and love of an object or thing. The love between siblings is different than the between parents and their offspring also. Due to its varying degrees, love itself is hard to define but it can be done. Love occurs when a person would be put into a state of deep state of grief if something were to happen to the other person that is loved, the emotions and bond towards the person that are often used to describe it are the side effects of love.

I'd say you can just feel it. You start a relationship, follow it where it takes you and at some point, I feel that you just know in the back of your head. If you have to question yourself if you like somebody while you're in a current relationship, then I would consider that the sign that the relationship is not based off of love but something else, whatever that may be.

There are different kinds of love too. Every relationship is unique, none are the same at all, so small things are done differently, love is shown in different ways person to person.

I agree that you can just feel it. But not about liking others, though, I am polyamorous and am in a triangle poly relationship, and I love both partners, it was really tough to start with, because I became friends with one, and I instantly took a shine to them, first time we went out just to hang out went pretty far, but to cut a long story short we're all happy and we care for each other.

I think love is tough to explain, and that it itself is tough. the three of us have depression and it's really hard sometimes, and one has psychosis and it's really tough for him, and I mean it's REALLY tough for him, and I really wish I could help him, I really want him to be alright. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is we have our flaws and we don't pretend they're not there, we love each other for who we are.

I love bad bitches.

I'm infatuated with Emma Watson.

That's the difference.
