It is a very common question, "How can I tell I'm in love?", but it is not an easy question to answer. What
feels like love to one person may be nothing more than attraction to another. Some people fall in and out of love quickly
and often while others are never really in love as much as they are in lust. This can get confusing when you are
a teen because romantic love is a relatively new concept for you and you don't know what to expect. You are overwhelmed with
all sorts of new feelings and social pressures. They are confusing. What is love? What makes you want a romantic relationship
with one person and not another? How does your heart choose a partner? Why does love end? These questions can't be easily answered.
When I was a teen there was a song by a band called Images in Vogue called Lust for Love. There is a line
in this song that goes like this, "You mistook my lust for love, didn't you? You mistook my lust for love, how could you? Why would you?". It is very common for people to confuse
lust for love. But why? What is it about lust and love that make them so easy to mix up? If lust is all about sex, how can a
relationship without sex be about lust? Teens struggle with this because they see lust in the Biblical sense, but lust isn't that
sinister. Lust is about physical attraction and acting ONLY on physical attraction.
Love is about much more than that. Yet many teens
(and to be fair, many adults) confuse an intense attraction for some sort if divine love. For teens, since feelings of attraction
are still new and since pop-culture sells sex and love as one package, it is very easy to get the two mixed up.
