how can u tell if its love or Infatuation....

[jugs_06]

INFATUATION - foolish and usually extravagant passion or love or admiration.

LOVE - a strong positive emotion of regard and affection.

so basically, if you are in a situation where the feeling is sudden because of first impressions, that could fall into "infatuation", which is more SHORT-TERM..

love, on the other hand, is more of a long-term kind of feeling.. this entails affection rather than impressions..

Yuri infatuation doesn't last, usually yup admiration, dali ra makalimtan IMO. Pero ang love, mas deeper ang affection.

Nice topic

infatuation is something passive whereas love is for the long term you feel. love is total acceptance of the person weaknesses and all. Love sees beyond the immediate meaning it goes deeper. Infatuation is superficial and fleeting but it can also develop to love given time and exposure to that one person.
