Love vs. Infatuation

Well, monsoons just started recently and along with it those wonderful memories of those in love. Hey, I don't fall in the 'Lovers' category. As the title suggests, it's all about lust and love and the confusion that clouds the minds. To start with I'll say that infatuation is what we all face when we say it's 'LOVE'. I'm one of those unromantic guys you'll find around. I don't know what it (love) means.I don't believe in this stuff. If ever someone says (from the opposite sex)that she has feelings for me, I would laugh it off. Though it would never happen :p.
The moment we enter the teenage those feelings are aroused. We are created like that. The brain has some chemical reactions going on every now and then. One of those reactions gives arousal to such feelings. Chemistry mumble-jumble. They say (the people) that they are in love. But they fail to distinguish between infatuation and what we call love. Let me explain you in detail. When we see a person from the opposite sex we feel something (it doesn't happen with every person). That is infatuation at the first place. They give it the name of love. It's just physical attraction sometimes. They start distracting themselves away from their duties and other responsibility. And that's where devastation starts. Being involved and committed in a relationship leaves no time for your daily chores or what you may call duties.
This really happens with students who just enter the so-hyped college-life. They have just entered college and there starts their hunt for the perfect match. Some want to live their life and they love being in the trend and hence find this stuff as living life. Stupid it is on their parts. It isn't a game. Because when you are playing with someone else's feelings it can prove to be really hazardous.


Couple of my friends also had fallen into this ditch. Unknowingly,of course. They took those things a bit err, too seriously. And when things really started changing the other way round they realized it wasn't the right time to get into a relationship. That's when they realized that everything has its own time. I believe,when you are in a relationship you don't need to strive for it to keep it going. It just happens the way it should be. You don't even have to search for the right match. One of my friends started writing some attention-seeking stuffs on a social-networking site just to show he was in a relationship. Though he wasn't serious about it. Now that's what I hate to the core.
Well,one of my intelligent friend had just been carried away by those feelings just because he was smitten by a girl younger to him. I counselled him to avoid such stuff because it wasn't the right time for that girl to start a relationship and made him aware of those bitter facts that the girl and he himself would face if the relationship fails. She had so much left to see all her life and for such things, it was too damn early. Got himself counselled the right way. Now you know why I referred him to as 'intelligent'.


Such examples must have obviously understood by people reading this. My point on the whole case is that one thing happens at a particular point of time. Things won't rush at a time,even if you want to. For people of my age,I advice them to stay out of this as long as you are done with the four years of engineering. And when you are finished with all your career related stuffs and all,the other pieces of the jigsaw place themselves automatically. You have nothing in your hands when it comes to changing your relationship status from 'being single' to 'being committed'. Like I said earlier, it just happens.
I don't have any oppositions for people who are in a relationship. Some work out (hardly). And majority of them are dominated by break-ups. Reason being misunderstanding, no enough time to devote etc. Yeah, that's what we don't analyse in the beginning of a relationship.
I hope this article helps change views on stuff like this for good. Offence unintended.
