When Infatuation becomes Love !

Man is a social being and hence there is no existence for anyone without people around. No one spends their life in solitude. Every day is a new experience with known and unknown people. Some of them are met during every day of life such as parents, partner, or kids whereas some of them met occasionally or periodically such as friends, relatives or colleagues. There is special place in hearts for family, friends, relatives and many others. But there is yet another group of people initially strangers, but after a few casual acquaintance or may be just one, they fall for one another, touching their hearts melodiously and finally turns to be someone special in heart for lifetime.

You know someone is special when you become so conscious when you are around them. You know someone is special when your eyes locks, sharing love cues and smile glows. And you glance around to make sure, no one has captured that special moment you both cherished. No longer could you look straight into his eyes and you realize your eyes shy away with a smile. You know someone is special when your heart desires to see, yet when you meet him; you have a strong urge to hide. Your heart pounds with joy when you meet him, and even the smarter is so nervous to even have a small talk. When you are away, you feel like you have a lot to speak to him while you are near you are unable to utter even a single word or you forget what you wanted to say! That’s when you doubt if its infatuation or love. You may think infatuation is love or vice versa .This feeling is not exclusive for adults .It can happen anytime of lifetime. Some of the relations that are budding in adolescence or teenage may seem to be love at first, but you could see that to be forgotten fast for various reasons. And what had seemed to be a long lasting relation would have faced the falls pretty soon. Surprising fact is that most of them would have let go what had happened and will be facing the spring season again, yet with someone who seems to be special again. The process continues until they find the real one who is special. It is sometimes true that a person has to make a few wrong choices before they meet the right one. And then they realize all their past “so called special ones were just infatuations “and the one that is long lasting is love. Yet again there is another set that have really loved and have not yet gotten over the special one they have met, but for some reason their special ones did not made it to be a long lasting. And may be years later they meet again. But to the disappointment, situations changed and the special one had already tied the knot of commitment. Now regretting about letting go in the past or reasons why they could not make it everlasting was not going to resolve the situation. Still, they secretly cherish those sweet memories for a lifetime. Like a first kiss is hardly forgotten, hence will remain special forever. Though it is confusing whether to call it infatuation or love, one thing for sure fate had different plans for each one of them. Why they met, why they lost their love, cannot be answered. May be those experience was necessary for what they are today. May be that infatuation gave better insight on love or May be that gave the realization that something more has got to be achieved in life and thus they split into different paths.

After many years they met and sharing memories, realizing from corner of their heart how much cherished are those memories deep inside. They bring smile on face and you are glad you met that special person. Memories of learning together is class, walking side by side from school to home, accepting chocolates that were offered out of love and running home to peel off the chocolate cover so that you could read what special message it has got for you by the special person. Fighting and crying for silliest reasons. Some people are lucky enough to get the love they desire while some are not.

Everyone loves love stories with happy endings.But it is not easy as it may sound for that to happen. It requires strong determination , sacrifices and patience.I may say love is a followup of infatuation.If one person is very serious about his infatuation he will work hard to achieve his love of life.Destiny leads to the desired destinations and man has no control over it. Fate are circumstances that are created in life, so that right choices are made in life .Every experience is for a reason, whether good or bad, that makes us what we are today. It may not make sense why it happened today, but definitely the picture becomes clearer and clearer as we look in a broader aspect after a long term. And when one grows older and older, we smile at our memories and let go our infatuations, move on along with our destiny ,holding on to love that is long ever lasting .
