Lust first. It is a physical attraction, but does not necessarily mean "want to have sex with" (but usually physical sex is desired). Adult humans can, and often do, feel lust for strangers.
Romance next. This is an emotional attraction, often with physical aspects. Romance is based upon filling in the relationship details with wishes and assumptions. These usually tend to be false and when reality hits the romance fades. Romance is based upon hiding the other person's faults. Romances are always doomed to failure unless they transform into love.
Lust combined with Romance often is called "Love", but this is how some people can say that "Love" hurts.
Love, often called True Love to separate it from infatuation, lust and romance, is both an emotion and a bonding force. It requires the complete and total unconditional acceptance of another person. Faults are seen but not ignored or judged. The faults are accepted as part of the other person. Love never fades.

The only way I found out that the woman that I've been with now for two years was different from all of the others was because whenever I first met her and started dating her I felt a little nervous and even shy a little bit. With all the others I wasn't nervous at all. An believe me I have dated and been with alot of women. Also just the little things that she says and does is better than all the others. Of coarse it always helps if you are physically attracted to the other person. Because before you spoke to this person that is what caught your interest in the first place right? I have had many one night stands and what some people call friendly fu-ks and I am so glad that's over with. Anymore these days it's almost like playing Russian Roulette sleeping with someone you know? You never know where that persons been. But anyway trust me if it's love you will know it.

LOVE
Love is an incredibly powerful word. When you're in love, you always want to be together, and when you're not, you're thinking about being together because you need that person and without them your life is incomplete.
This love is unconditional affection with no limits or conditions: completely loving someone. It's when you trust the other with your life and when you would do anything for each other. When you love someone you want nothing more than for them to be truly happy no matter what it takes because that's how much you care about them and because their needs come before your own. You hide nothing of yourself and can tell the other anything because you know they accept you just the way you are and vice versa.
It's when they're the last thing you think about before you go to sleep and when they're the first thing you think of when you wake up, the feeling that warms your heart and leaves you overcome by a feeling of serenity. Love involves wanting to show your affection and/or devotion to each other. It's the smile on your face you get when you're thinking about them and miss them.
Love can make you do anything and sacrifice for what will be better in the end. Love is intense,and passionate. Everything seems brighter, happier and more wonderful when you're in love. If you find it, don't let it go.
LUST
often confused with love, it is purely physical attraction and has no lasting effect

Just imagine that the person you love in 20 years later when they are old and fat and disabled or disfigured. Would you still be with that person? If no, then what you are feeling is lust, not love.
Love grows slowly over time.
Lust turns into full bloom almost immediately.

Love is when you get shivers down your spine when you here the name. Lust is when you just want to get in bed with them. Love is just wanting to be with them and appreciate them. With Love you wouldn't care were you are...what they look like....you just want to be with them. Lust again just means that you want to have sex with them. Oh and yes they are 2 compeletly different things.

If they keep eye contact with you, eye to eye, then there is strong possibility they are in love with you. Wondering eyes is a sign of just lust.
