I'm so curious about this kind of question... I love a girl before but as we move on I thought it's just LUST!... I don't know what's realy the meaning of love and lust... Can you help me to express this kind of feelings?

When it's just lust you're only attracted to the physical characteristics of the other person. It's really easy to focus on what they look like. You also tend to focus on what they do for you. The relationship is important to you because of what you get out of it, but when you love someone you want a relationship with them because you want to be close to that person. Lust is all about what feels good right now, and you'll be less willing to go through all the rough patches that a relationship brings. Thinking about the person you love will make you smile. When it's love you can talk to the person with ease. They're the first person you think of when you have something to say. You feel comfortable around that person, and a part of you feels like you've known them your whole life. Love will make you focus more on the substantive things about the other person, like how smart they are or how much they love animals or how gentle their touch is, and not just their physical characteristics.

i think love can stir one's lust.But lust can not stir one's love.Usually,man can have lust not because of love,while women just opposite.
