LOVE and LUST. Do you know the difference?

"Lust is what keeps you wanting to do it even when you have no desire to be with each other. Love is what makes you want to be with each other even when you have no desire to do it".  

  Love and lust are are inextricably intertwined. Lust is ground zero for hormones, its the natural way of bringing the opposite sexes together to mate. In fact, without lust its doubtful that love between a man and women would have a chance to develop at all. The diving force of the sexual imperative bridges the gap between the almost incompatible brain styles of the two sexes. So lust can be seen as one end of a broad continuum, which may or may not culminate in romantic affair and love. Lust is an altered state of consciousness programmed by the primal urge to procreate. Studies in this stage suggests that the brain in the phase is much like a brain on drug. Also in the early stage of relationship, when the sex hormones are ragging, lust is fuelled by idealisation and projection as you see what you hope someone will be or need them to be rather than seeing the real person. 
  
  Love is the most ennobling of human emotions, transcendental, exalted and capable of engendering emotional states that can make the male of the species want " TO BE THE BETTER MAN". Men fight wars over lust, but they make homes and families for love. Love creates the true bond between the sexes and gives us the reason and meaning to live the life. The real danger is that both lust and love can rob a man of his natural strength and defences, then its all too easy to hand the male power to a women for sex-ploitation. 

 Lust is especially dangerous because it causes a person to be think of their self and throw all reasons and logic to the wind. When a person in lust they wont care if they and their partner have anything in common. They only get interested in where he or she comes from or where he/she is going and how good is the physical attraction. The brain will only focused on using the key to unlock the door to the secret cave, if a person only in lust, he/she will use this against their partner. BUT if they're both falling in love the sexuality, emotional needs, understandings, caring, respects, values and appreciation is a bond the love.
