Defining Love and Infatuation =)



(CREDITS for tumblr)




Hi guys, fellow readers, brothers and sisters in Christ, people and visitors of this world!
If you guys, have a hard time or you just want to know what is the true meaning of  "LOVE" and infatuation.. Then this is the right blog for you.. (ha ha ha.. I hope this will answer your questions somehow) Behold, I will be your Love doctor for today.! (ha ha ha)




Before anything else grab a:





  1. Bible ( i used NIV [New International Version] or you could use a youth Bible [Cont. English] or any bible you have there as long as it is a Bible [Old and New Testament ofcourse!] )
  2. Notebook and A pen (anything you are comfortable with)


Okay.. We are ready to go!!! So let's start our adventure!!! (yey! ha ha ha!)



All people in the world has a different definition what love is, but let us refer to the Best book of all and the source of wisdom, (tatada!) the BIBLE!

(If you have your bible with you let's open it together! okay.. 1.2.3...!)

Open your bible to: 1 Corinthians 13:4 - 8 (NIV)

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no records of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trust, always hopes, always preserves.

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away."


Such a wonderful passage it is! To help you completely understand, i'm gonna explain it to you.

Let's start with: Infatuation

You might say "What is infatuation? Does that thing still exist?", well.. Yes, my friends it still does.. It all begins with that. 

  • Now infatuation means A foolish love or C-R-U-S-H. Yes, you've read it right. CRUSH. Crush, is far different from Love. (Now, don't react yet.)
  •  Infatuation occurs in early teens
    • Love does not happens in High School. Love happens or strikes when you are in your late teens (above), when your mind is matured already. It happens when your 21+ (but that does not mean you are 21, you are already inlove)
  • Happens with Several People
    • You can't love two or more persons at a time. There is only one person in the story. If it happens, you are in a relationship right now and you are like, "Ohhhw.. what am i going to do? I love Mike (let's just say that's the name of Boy#1) but I also love Kevin (Boy #2).. I don't know who will i choose?!?!". Well, that is not love. That's Infatuation.
  • Quickly Forgotten
    • I think that is understandable, let's proceed. 
  • Physical Attraction
    • You are only basing to the person's appearance. You can't just love someone not knowing who they really are. You don't just love someone because he has a cute smile, flattering eyes and a nice car, you will always based on the "Heart".
    • Appearance causes REJECTION. For example you found out that your crush is actually afraid of the dark and you just can't accept it. And you stopped liking him, i mean your "TURNED-OFF" to Him.
  • Unpredictable
    • It's like "I know i like him yesterday but now, I don't know."
  • OUT of Sight; OUT of Mind
    • It's like you are always out of your mind. Your mind went out with him (your crush). Fantasizing, thinking about "OUT OF THIS WORLD CONCEPTS" about you and your crush. That is bad and it is a sin.
  • Extreme Jealousy of partner when with others 
    • Yes, brother! You might say, "Oh. That's wrong.!". No, it's not. "It does not envy."
  • Arises from LITTLE knowledge of the person's characteristics
    • It's quite the same from "Physical Attraction"
  • SELF-CENTERED
    • The concept of "IT'S ALL ABOUT ME, MYSELF AND I". All you care about is yourself. Risking the safety of others because of "YOUR WANTs".
  • DISREGARDS OVER PROBLEMS
    • This is very common with couples (especially MARRIED COUPLES, particularly Celebrities). Quitting their marriage because they can't fix their problems anymore, that is not Love. If that is love, you will fight for it together, Until death.
  • BLIND, Based on Wishes
    • Based on WISHES. Imagination.

  1. We as a world ethnicity have made love out to be mysterious, complex, complicated, and undefinable. It’s the subject of endless poems and literary works. We’ve been given the intuition that to define love is unfathomable. Maybe there’s a dread that if we define it, it would somehow be less powerful...less impactful...less exhilarating. Maybe we like the mystery of it. But is it really that complicated? Perhaps the complications adjoining love come from all “stuff” we add on to this powerful sentiment. Let’s define what it is we are experiencing in the moment of love. To top of it, God is LOVE. He gave the most precious meaning of LOVE.

    1. yes indeed! God is love! He created love! For without His love we won't exist.. It is because of His love we are brought out to this world.. He gave us the chance to experience life for us to witness His majesty.. indeed, He is good.. He is great.. He is love.. No matter how much we fail.. He is there to give us second chances, if we ask.. :)

      How great is His love! :)
