While dating someone, it is easy to
become completely infatuated with your significant other, but how do you know
if it is genuine or not? Take a minute and reckon what go through your
mind once you see your significant other.
Focusing
on his body
If
you are completely focused on their body and sex appeal, you probably have strong lustful feelings.
Sexual daydreams
Having
strong fantasies of sexual encounters and or fulfilling these desires is a
strong sign that you are caught up in your partner’s looks, rather than their
emotions.
Another
strong sign of lustful feelings instead of love is avoiding the topic of your
relationship. Do you constantly ignore the “talk” you both must have in order
to define your relationship? If so, this fantasy of a relationship is most
likely based on sexual feelings rather than emotional feelings.

Leaving
after Sex
An even
more obvious notion of this type of distinction you want to leave directly
after having sex with your partner. Most couples who have a
strong sexual and emotional connection want to enjoy each other’s company, even
after having sex. This means cuddling, getting food or just relaxing with each
other.
The last final sign of having lustful
feelings instead of loving feelings would be if you have that little voice in
your head telling you not to date him or not to trust him. If you are in love
with someone you should 100% trust him and want to be with him. Any doubts
means that you are either not ready for a loving relationship, or with the
wrong person for a serious relationship. On the other hand, there are
obvious signs of a loving relationship. If you feel strongly about the
following key aspects of a relationship, then you are heading into the right
direction of having a strong and loving relationship.
LOVE
Spending quality time together
Even though you may thoroughly enjoy having
sex with your partner, spending time together is just as important. Being able
to lie in bed and talk about anything and everything is a sure sign
that you truly are in love.
A key part of a healthy relationship is
listening to your significant other. If you want to listen to their feelings
and emotions then you are connecting with your partner on an emotional level
rather than a physical level.
Makes you a better person
As cliché as it sounds, your significant other should make you want to become a better person. They should be a positive influence on you and your life and their love is what keeps you optimistic and happy.
Comfort
If you are in love with your partner you should be comfortable
with every aspect of you and your relationship. Whether it is talking openly
about your feelings or just relaxing on the couch together. Being
comfortable with your significant other is a sure sign that you feel accepted
to be who you are and not act like you are someone else.
Meeting the Family
A larger step in a relationship is meeting each other’s family.
Even though this is big, it should be a step that you both want to take to
strengthen your relationship. If you love someone, you want to show your
families why you love them, and have your family love them as well. It may be
difficult to decipher if you are in love with someone or if you are simply “in
love” with the physical aspect of your relationship. However, it is very
important to be able to differentiate the two feelings.
