Is It Love Or Lust?

By John Gray

A Check List for Determining if You're in Love or Lust

At Mars Venus, we know how important it is for you to be in touch with your feelings.

How you feel inside determines, to a great extent, how events play out in your life.

Now it's time to shine the light of scrutiny on yourself. The following questions are for those who suspect their cerebral love centers are activated, but are not sure if it is love or lust.

 *  Do you feel really good when you think of your partner?

 *  Do you care deeply for the well-being of your special someone?

 *  Do you feel relaxed and accepted totally for who you are?

 *  Do you feel safe to talk about any subject with you partner?

 *  Do you feel empowered by your partner to be your best?

 *  Do you feel respected and appreciated?

 *  Do you feel passionate about your partner in other areas besides the physical?

The more you have answered "yes" to the above questions, the closer you are to real lasting love and have moved beyond lust.

The fact that romantic love is not just an emotion but a drive and one of strongest forces on earth is now a scientific fact.

No wonder we place so much emphasis on love. It's important to get it right.

The areas highlighted above are abbreviated. We may not have touched on your particular situation or you may still have questions.

Love is not always easy, but it's definitely worth it.
