Love vs. Being In Love

Love and being in love are subjective experiences. However, these seven variances are often seen:

Infatuation vs. Attachment: 

Love is a profound emotional connection and devotion to someone, whereas being in love may involve intense infatuation or passion.

Longevity: 

Love lasts and deepens with time, but being in love is more passionate and ephemeral, frequently linked with early romantic relationships.

Acceptance vs. Idealization: 

Love requires accepting and embracing a person's qualities and shortcomings, while love may involve idealizing and elevating someone.

Emotional Stability: 

Love can cause a range of extreme emotions, including exhilaration, elation, and anxiety.

Commitment: 

Love is a long-term commitment & readiness to work through obstacles, but being in love may involve a great desire for emotional closeness & connection but not always a commitment.

Familiarity:

 Love is based on a thorough grasp of a person's character, whereas being in love can be driven by the joy of finding new facets of someone's personality.

Balance: 

Love balances emotional & practical parts of a relationship, while being in love tends to be more emotional and passionate.
