Love VS Infatuation

Posted by Leticia, 17 Feb

It's hard to know when you're in love.

We all know it's not easy to tell whether we're in love or just infatuated with someone. With that in mind, we'd like to give you some tips on how to tell the difference between love and infatuation—and what to do if you're mistaken about what you feel for someone else.

Love is a feeling that lasts. Infatuation is a feeling that can last for a long time too, but it tends to fade sooner than "true love." It's also important to note that infatuation can often lead people into making decisions they wouldn't make if they were thinking clearly. If you find yourself making rash decisions because of your feelings for someone else, it's probably best if you take some time alone and think about what's really important to you before moving forward with anything big in your life.

Love is patient and kind. Infatuation isn't necessarily either of those things—it might be impatient or even abusive at times. Love does not envy, but it does expect good things for both partners in the relationship; infatuation tends only toward selfishness and may even encourage jealousy or other bad behaviors from one person toward another.

Love, on the other hand, does not.

Coaching Testimonial

"My online love inspiration angel"

Submitted by: Patricia, USA, 21

To be honest, in the beginning, I thought it would be a waste of time. But since I've never seen a similar service in any other dating site, I decided to give it a try.

I always "thought" my profile was on point and I did not need any help to correct my page. I always had in my profile if someone is not attracted to my profile, then that's "their" loss.

BOY WAS I WRONG!!

I will never forget my first time using the Coaching Service I was introduced to my personal Dating Coach. Let me put it this way, if it was not for her I would have given up long time ago (even though I'm a new member).

She taught me so many things and gave me good advice, I did not want to stop chatting with her at all.

She opened my eyes to many possibilities when finding love. She is definitely an inspiration and I appreciate a whole lot. She is more than a Dating Coach to me; she is more of a close friend/guide to me. She is definitely my "online love-inspiration angel".
