Infatuation vs Love
From the movie Frozen, the infatuation Anna and
Hans have for each other is adorable, catchy and fun. We’ve all been through
it, for it is the first step to finding love.
This article compares and contrasts infatuation
with true love. Infatuation is based solely around intense feelings:
“Infatuation
is the state of being completely carried away by unreasoning passion or love;
addictive love. Infatuation usually occurs at the beginning of the relationship
when sexual attraction is central.”
As the years pass by, infatuation doesn’t have the
ability to last and the test of love steps in. It isn’t a chemical response any
more-it takes patience, kindness, respect, and trust.
This couple has been married for 57 years! In
their “behind the scenes” interview, she says, “I love Wes all the time. Even
when I’m made as a wet hen with him, and we’re arguing, I still love him. And
at any moment I just feel like, I want to hug you and shake you at the same
time…I’m not going to leave any time soon, We’re stuck together.”
And that my friends, is what willpower can do.

All those attributes aren’t easy! As we are very
aware of, the one we love isn’t perfect. IT takes willpower and determination
to act this way even when it’s not easy.
Are you determined to grow old together and be
happy? Where do you see yourself on your 50th wedding anniversary?
During dinner, memorize the attributes of love
(list above). Or, another phrase that means a lot to you as a couple. Have it
be your mantra- and recite it together before bed every night as a commitment
and reminder that you are both in it together.
