Well you can be both- are you 1) just thinking about a person's body or how sweet or charming they are or are you 2) thinking about the person and have no doubt about them being made for you? If you fall into category 1 you are infatuated- in lust and defend your view with an observation of their charm and maybe their wit as well. If you fall into category 2 you have the basics for love and it may very well be- just ask your heart, as corny as that sounds!

∙ 11y agoInfatuation is feelings in the absence of knowing the person.
Love is the same feelings when you actually know the person.
Love has two meaning, however.
One is the emotion (described above), the other is the action: to love someone,
to give love, to do things to help and take care of them. To say you care and do nothing is empty, to take care of that person actually means something.

In my experience not a lot in the first few weeks of meeting someone, both have very similar effects.

Of course this only applies to real people, people who believe they love celebrities are just immature.
