True Love or Infatuation?

I have to admit that the word "Love" itself signifies true and pure affection. So giving the title as 'true' love is actually quite unnecessary. 

But nowadays many confuse feelings of infatuation to that of love and it is really hard to find pure love in a person. There are people who show their pure love for some person, but the total number of such people is less. Many are fooled by feelings of lust or infatuation and are led astray. By the time they realize it, it's already too late.

Love can take many forms. A mother's love for her children, a child's love for his/her parents, a person's love for his country or even the bond shared between owners and their pets. These forms of love are commonly present everywhere and it is pretty standard. There are not many problems which arise due to these bonds. But it is the love between a man and a woman that is quite complex to understand. Although a person's appearance, skills or his wealth can make them more attractive, there is no way we can predict when and where cupid will strike.

We need to initially find out what true love is. One of the main reasons people fall in love with someone is because of their outward appearance. Although looks are important it is not lasting and it is definitely not real love. Some may even fall for people with a huge amount of wealth which is even more absurd. Love is not something that can be bought with money. There are even more factors which tends to attract people. Many are attracted towards people who are either famous or talented in some aspect. Talent is something which can definitely be admired in a person but even that does not qualify as something worth falling for.
