love is when you are interested in being the right person instead of just aimlessly looking for the right person.
truthfully love isnt really the fun part. thats the part where you sacrifice and compromise.
most people think love is that feeling you get when a really hot girl is nice to you too!!!!
unfortuneately its the part of you that needs to be there for her after she gains 50 pounds and hates YOU for it.
ever come on here and see a single mom warn that any man that wants to date her needs to realize her kids come first, and she's not gonna give up going out with the girls and bla bla bla
but the whole time your reading it you just KNOW the guy isnt really going to be loved regardless if she had 15 kids or a goldfish
well if she loves anybody but herself she'll put him first and together they'll parent the child, and through the mutual bonding of the family the child will be 10x happier too. and then the child will grow up with a strong sense of loyalty and commitment and make his/her spouse happy and have kids that TRULY come first... even when the marriage gets tough
do you know what im getting at?
addicted to someone is when you really want to be around someone but it has really little to do with the other persons happiness. maybe your afraid you'll be alone otherwise... or your sole reason is that maybe the person is very attractive ... or has things you need.
or maybe you arent being treated well and could otherwise love them. at that point if you stay with them and have to ask why, the reason probably isnt going to be 1 that's based on love

Thats hard to say- if you mean in the relationship sense, it's a feeling ou just know with a new level of comfort and understanding between you and the other person that can be unspoken really.

As in addicted do you mean lust? if you do then its just the sexual chemestry you can have with some one then after that has passed and a real relationship follows and you see the worst in someone faults and all and still cant amagine your life without them then that is love.

You get to KNOW someone FIRST, without getting touching and stiring up the emotions. get to know them, appreciate them and you find out if they are right for you by looking at their qualities, virtues, integrity, how they respond under inconveniences, pressure, how they treat other people and their reaction, will give you added power in seeing them for what they really are, and then if is all good, then you start to love them for their qualities, gentleness, sensitivity, kindness, patience....and you become really good friends, you share great times together and this builds up a deeper friendship...in other words, YOU steer your own ship, and you NEVER depend on anyone to 'make you happy' and you steer clear of those who depend on you to 'make' THem happy. happiness, love and trust come from within ourselves first, so as when we encounter a promising relationship, we are able to hold onto our own selves, and to be able to give out and share also, yet still retaining our own individuality, this is SO important!! When you are in love, its riding on the emotional side, and when that falters, if there has not been the time and effort first to build up a foundation of real true friendship with this person, sooner or later, it quite often dissolves into nothingness. being addicted to someone, is being 'needy, clingy'...depending on that person to 'make you happy or to give you something which you feel you won't be content or happy without it, wether for good or bad....and thats dangerous, because then you set yourself up to be used, abused, and it all goes around in a senseless circle, getting nowhere, causing alot of unhappiness and wastes so much time and precious energy. often true feelings of LOVE come unexpectedly, and being in love and loving that person for who they are is beautiful!!!

If you cant tell the difference between the two and you have to ask then you aren't in love. Hope that helps

love: , respect, giving, loyalty, forgiviness, patience, understanding, gentle and caring
Lust is: sexual, flirtation, desire, need, want,

when your in love you just know. i know that sounds sort of ladedah, but its the truth. i have been in relationships i thought were love, but now that i am with my fiance, it feels so much differant and so much better. i think that when your really in love you dont even question it, i just sort of realized one day that "wow, i really love him"

You are not blind and see their faults and still accept them for who they are because they aren't likely to change much.
