Cheating in Hollywood: Love vs Lust debate


Bossip recently wrotethis article saying if there is a difference between love and lust anymore. We think this article is very relevant in light of recent headlines with Jesse James, Tiger Woods, and Shaq and others. THe new term is sex addiction. This is the new "in" term to have if you are caught cheating. However, most know some men just like to have sex and are willing to cheat to get that gratification. If you truly loved somebody, lust wouldn't matter. The protocol and foundation of the relationship cannot be based on sex. Making your spouse wait so you two can come to get to know each other will create a connection that will not make lust a factor, internal nor external. There is NOTHING wrong with lusting after your partner in a committed relationship, but true love is what is more important. Love and lust DO NOT MIX! We have to get back to a time where lust took a backseat to courting and dating. Where men truly liked and not lusted the women they went after and women knew what they wanted out of relationship and didn't let lust take over the relationship!


Tip: It is so hard to tell the difference, but love is still out there for all of us. However, most people want "instant love." "Instant love" is when you have a nagging feeling of wanting to be with somebody, no matter who it is, as long as it makes you happy. It can sometimes be confused with lust. With the computer age we live in, everything is so instant and readily accessible and we treat our love lives the same. We want our partner instantly and perfect to the point that we ignore the obvious. People jump into relationships head first. Nobody dates nor courts anymore. Everybody wants this ideal partner or relationship and are willing to go through hell to either achieve or keep that despite clear signs that the partner may not feel the same way
We have stressed that you do not 'need' anybody to make you happy nor complete you.
