Some may call true love overrated, while some swear by its beauty and passion. Irrespective of the category you fall into, you’re itching to know what the hell true love is…right?

Is it the sensation of missing somebody so much that you become damaged?

Is it the selfless act of caring for somebody? Or is it simply the ‘can’t-keep-hands-off-each-other’ phase?

Or is it the act of being so comfortable in each other’s company that you don’t mind burping, farting and eating with your mouth wide open in their presence? Well, this is a question best left for purists who give so much importance to finding one true ‘soulmate’.

Love is more of an Utopian concept these days than a simple matter of ‘head-over-heels-and-damned-about-it’ feeling. Perhaps that’s why, finding love has become so tough. Thanks to information overload and social networking sites, the joy of anticipation is lost.

In fact, the meaning of true love has been redefined. It is something that makes you want to meet the person in real, despite your virtual dates. It’s something where you have to talk to him/her, no matter how many pings you exchange in a day, and it’s that feeling where you don’t have to indulge in social PDA to prove your affections for each other. If you are doing any of the above things, you can be sure that you have find love. And if you want to stay loyal and faithful to him/her, you could say that you have found TRUE love.

Let’s face it, the days of letters and landline phones are way behind us. Remember how couples hung around phones or letter boxes for so long that everybody in the lane knew that something was brewing? But now, there are so many ways to connect, keep tab and even spy on that love seems to be just a fraction of our emotions. Yes, the connectivity does help in Long Distance Relationships when you are away from your partner and it sure shrinks the world and tell us what he/she is up to. But this constant information overload isn’t love, is it? It’s just the idea of having a sounding board that knows the ins and outs of your life. Well, what more can we expect from this generation?!

Love is still that heady feeling you get when you see him/her. It’s still the all-consuming emotion that makes you blind to realities. It’s that idea of security and protection that makes you forget the evils in the world. It’s you who has to decided whether you want the old-world romance or the new-age affair…

Your heart is beating faster, your world suddenly has become beautiful and you are excited to be in a feeling called ‘Love’, but are you sure you are in LOVE and not ‘LUST’!!!

Sometimes you believe that you are in love but after sometime you realise it wasn’t actually love. But can you differentiate between these two? Well yeah, read on and know if it’s love or just lust.

When it’s not just about ‘Sex’ anymore!

Sex is important in a healthy relationship, but if it’s only and only about sex, you really need to think if it’s actually love. Love is more about trust, commitment and communication, but if all you think of ‘Why aren’t we having sex right now?’ then you need to take a step back and commit only when it’s love because it may be lust for you but someone might be falling truly in love with you, so why to hurt others if you’re still unsure of your own feeling?

Lust fades, Love stays!

Always remember if it’s only and only lust, you will be bored of other person soon. Sometimes it’s not just about physical intimacy but emotional intimacy, and if your relationship has more deep emotional talks than sex, feel lucky to be in TRUE LOVE!

When it’s only about the inner beauty that counts!

Sometimes you like someone because you feel that person looks great or hot, but remember if it’s only the outer body that matters to you, with time you will realize you never really loved that person but their body. This quote truly stands true here,”It’s easy to take off your clothes and have sex, people do it all the time but opening up your soul to someone, letting them into your spirits, thoughts, future, fears, hope and dreams…that’s being naked!”. Love someone who they are inside because that’s what they really are. And if you already do that, hey congratulations it’s true love!

When you focus on real aspects of relationship and not just fantasies!

Love isn’t a very smooth journey, every relationship goes through some tough timings and how you come out of it truly makes your bond an everlasting one. If it’s true love you would be more concerned about how to make your relationship work and not just about some stupid fantasies you’re creating in your mind. Talk it out, express and understand each other and trust me it works if you really understand how important you both are to each other.

When you feel for someone without any conditions!

Always remember love is unconditional, while lust isn’t. Someone has rightly said ‘Real love begins where nothing is expected in return’..When it’s lust all you are concerned about is yourself, you put yourself first without even thinking about your partner. But when it’s love all it matters to you is your partner’s happiness and comfort. If it’s just lust, you might sleep with someone else without feeling guilty but when it’s love you can’t even think of doing that to someone you love.

To be honest, it’s not really difficult to know if it’s love or not.

And always remember love is one of the most amazing feeling in the world, if you are unsure of yours don’t screw it up for other who truly believe in love.

So what do you think is it love or lust for you?

The post How To Know If It’s Love and not Lust? appeared first on Youngisthan.in.

I’m sure that by now you would have watched as many movies which defines love as you have report cards in your hand. Over the years love has been defined by a number of philosophers and psychologists. I, on the other hand knew what love was, when I watched the addictive Yash Chopra movies irrespective of they being modern or vintage. They’ve defined love as friendship, commitment, care, compassion and what not.

But there are a few things love just cannot happen without. We define for you what true love actually is.

Respect

Where there is love, there is priority and hence respect comes eventually. Constantly being late, moving the finish line, saying one thing and then doing other without preamble, all show lack of respect and consideration.

Understanding

I don’t think there’s any need to elaborate this point. Just that there is no relationship on this earth that has sufficed without a proper understanding. The sooner you know it, the better for you.

Priorities

True love is about putting someone else’s needs before your own. That does not have to be sacrificing always. It simply means that there are times when you consider the need or thought of the person you love wholeheartedly, above yours.

Responsibility

More than fifty percent people in love complain about lack of responsibility in a relationship. Teamwork translates into a sense of interdependence, rather than independence and that leads to a deeper and more nuanced understanding of one another, and a strong sense of overall connection.

Trust and Transparency

When it comes to two people in love, partners who are aware of what the other is doing have been found to be happier in life. Trust is an important aspect in any relationship, as without that the world would have succumbed to devastation by now. No, I am not exaggerating, but think about it yourself. Any relationship, be it personal or professional requires trust.

Contentment

If you’re going to be transparent and communicate, then you might as well put it all out there. Truth goes a lot farther than eggshell walking. If you truly love the person you won’t expect things that are beyond his or her potential. Stuffing never ends well. Being contented does.

Space

Setting time aside each day or week to sit, without distraction and talk about the relationship. Often people become so busy in their lives that they oversee their relationship needs time too. Being mindfully invested in the fabric of relationship and working together to keep it strong is an abject necessity to foster no just contentment but joy.

Humour

Oh yes, humour too is an important aspect in a relationship, for if you’re happy it’s because of the important elements of love. Assuming that a relationship is, by and large, healthy and strong, humour is derived from encountering the unexpected- that’s what makes a funny joke.

What these virtues really tell you is whether you see a glass the half empty way or the half full way. It may sound hokey to say but if any of these is missing in your relationship, maybe you should work it out soon.

After all, true love comprises of all the good virtues instilled within you.
