Infatuation Quote by Ritu Ghatourey
“If you love some one because you think that he or she is really gorgeous… Then it's not love .. it's Infatuation If you love some one because you think that you shouldn't leave him because others think that you shouldn't ... Then it's not love.. it's Compromise If you love some one because you have been kissed by him... Then it's not love.. it's Inferiority Complex If you love some one because you cannot leave him thinking that it would hurt his feelings .. Then it's not love .. it's Charity If you love some one because you share every thing with him ... Then it's not love... it's Friendship BUT... If you feel the pain of the other person more than him even when he is stable 'n you cry for him ... that's LOVE If you get attracted to other people but stay with him without any regrets... that's LOVE If you let him go knowing that he has to go but he doesn't want to ... that'sLOVE”
