psychologist,counselors, human development experts have given us guidelines to differntiate love from infatuation:
1. Love centers on 1 person only, while infatuation tends to consider several at the same time
2. Love develops slowly - just like a plant it needs nurturing
3. Love recognizes 3 important things even as interest in the other person awakens compatibility, faults and reality
4. Love motivates behavior usually toward the positive
5. Love controls desire for physical contact but infatuation explores it
6. Love is selfless, infatuation is selfish
7. Love brings the approval of friends, infatuation generates disapproval of them
8. Love produces security, infatuation produces insecurity
9. Love survives separation, infatuation easily dies when put to a test like distance
10. If it has to end, Love does it slowly, infatuation however ends rapidly- easily comes easily goes.
Be aware, most people get infatuated several times before they found the real LOVE.
