I was in a relationship for over 6 years.The hold time I said that I know it was love.When it finally came to an end I realized that it was nothing more than lust.Maybe we tell ourselves that we are in love so that we don't see ourselves for what we really are,"sex addicted junkies".

I am not sure you can generalise from your own experience.

Having never been in a serious relationship, I couldn't say - because I refuse to be in a relationship where I'm used for a sex object or some kind of decoration, and the majority of men seem to want that. Women, though . . . the majority of women are straight. So I'm kind of screwed.
I'd say lust and love are not necessarily mutually exclusive, though.

I believe most relationships are fueled by lust. When me and my husband first got together, it was sex,sex,sex,.....only after I got pregnant did we actually start to form a real relationship and eventually fell in love. I know that sounds so backwards, but I believe lust drives the world. We've been married 11 yrs. I believe it actually took us a couple of yrs. to actually love one another

When we are young, it is driven by hormones. As we get older and reflect on our relationships we develop a concept of love.

Lust usually preceeds love and continues in parallel with
love...

LUST, and it's sad. I know I lust, and that's why I'm not in a relationship.
