Testing Dear Happy to oblige LOVE OR INFATUATION Infatuation leaps into bloom Love usually takes root and grows one day at time Infatuation is accompanied by sense of uncertainty You are stimulated and thrilled but not really happy You are miserable when he is absent You cant wait un til you see him again Love begins with feeling of security You are warm with sense of his nearness even when he is away Miles do not separate you You want him near But near or far you know hes yours and you can wait lnfatuation says We must get married right away cant risk losing him Love says Dont rush into anything You are sure of one another You can plan your future with confidence Infatuation has an element of sexual excitement If you are honest you will discover it is difficult to enjoy one another unless you know it will end in intimacy Love is the maturation of friendship You must befriends before you can be lovers Infatuation lacks confidence When hes away you wonder if hes with another irl Sometimes you even check Love means trust You may fa into infatuation but you never fall in love Infatuation might lead ou to do things for which you might be sorry but love never wi Love lifts you up
