Infatuation almost can equate to lust. It is NOT love nor being in-love, however both usually start off as an infatuation. Infatuation is only an attraction for another person based only on what you initially see and not what you know about them. You do NOT know that person yet. It is only an attraction to someone based on what you WANT them to be verses who they really are. Infatuation turns to true love or being "in love" when you have accepted that person for who they are: their background, their weaknesses, their strengths, their character, their spirit, their values, their spirituality, where they are going in life, etc.
To prove the difference between infatuation and love is this: infatuation is what leads to the wedding but it is love that begins when the honeymoon is over and you discover the TRUE person you have married after your disagreements.

Infatuation has N OTHING to do with love because you know hardly anything about that person. It's only a form of immiature "puppy love" that occurs in high school. Infatuation does not last, while love does.

When infatuated, we are thrilled, but not happy, wanting to trust, yet suspicious. There are lingering, nagging doubts about our “partner in infatuation” and their love for us.
We’re miserable when they’re away, almost like we’re not complete unless we’re with them. It’s a rush and it’s intense. It’s difficult to concentrate. And most infatuation relationships have a high degree of sexual charge around them.

A.) When someone believes themselves to be in love, but deep down, knows that it isn't true love.
B.) When someone feels unexplainably strong about a person, but doesn't know/doesn't care to know if it's love or not.
C.) A beyond intense feeling that is on the way to love. You have to be infatuated before it can be real love.

The beginning of true passionate love. You get excited when you see and think of that person. It is a highly excited feeling, felt from the range of young teens to even adults. Getting married to the person who get infatuated over would be a gift from God.
Some people are passionate and expresses true emotion for another person they are going to be in love with. The people who say that it is not love it is deep lust are just a bunch of stupid idiots who do not know what true love is. Love is when you have strong feelings at. It has nothing to do with how well you know someone or whether the person has the same feelings back. Love all starts with Infatuation and crushes.

Infatuation:
The act of obsessing about someone and wanting them only in a fleeting manner... Temporary; not permanent ideas of love and progression within a relationship.

"S.M.B. is "not" infatuated with one M.H.L."
"Rather, S.M.B has permanent ideas of what to do with her..."

A spell with neither verbal or somatic components that is consciously or unconsciously cast by various charismatic, funny, and sexually appealing people, and instantly reduces the victim's I.Q. by 20 to 80 points. Half if they make their saving throw. The penalty applied is 18 minus the victim's wisdom.

A reality-warping reproductive mechanism.
Infatuation results in the increase of procreation in the human population; this, in turn, fuels the profits of the birth control industry.
