Love and lust are to very different feelings that are so easily confused with one another.  It kind of makes you wonder if the two words are really any different, or if they are just two words describing the same feeling in and illusion.  What if it were all one or the other, and one of the words is just thrown in there to make relationships that much more confusing and nerve racking.

Many people in a relationship would swear on their life that the feelings they shared for one another were love, but suppose love is simply an illusion created by lust.  One can be so obsessed and infatuated with lust that they feel compelled to describe their feeling of love.  Love in itself seems very surreal in a relationship; you are constantly asking yourself, “Is this real?”  Maybe subconsciously that is the answer to the question if you ask yourself that then suppose it is not real.  One never questions lust, if you want to fuck someone, you want to fuck them…it doesn’t get much more real than that, and the feeling is certainly not surreal like love.   When this feeling of lust grows, one may feel compelled to become more intimate; this intimacy may not be a sign of love that someone may so desperately be seeking.

Also, take into consideration that you can have one without the other, but not the other without the one (confusing yes…but I will explain.)  It is possible to lust for someone without feeling love for them; however, lust is a critical part of “love”.  I do not think that you can feel you love someone without also lusting for them as well.  Taking that into perspective, I do not believe it is such a far out thought that the reality of lust creates the illusion of love.

Now with that being said, the illusion of love can be in place so long that it becomes a reality or a false reality if you look at it like I am at the moment.  The same scenario plays out in many other ways.  For example, if you live a lie for a prolonged period of time, the lie becomes your life and the truth is inevitably lost.

Everyone feels lust, and in turn everyone feels “love” as well.
