Infatuation and Attraction

Actually infatuation is base of love, this all starts with infatuation but the real feelings get over from smaller selfish attraction and become real love.

Infatuation is an extreme and foolish feeling of love. Attraction is normal inclination to get closer or more intimate. Attraction may be even between inanimate objects. This may be even for reasons other than love. A tiger is attracted to a prey.

There is no infatuation without attraction.One gets infatuated after being attracted to someone.It is carrying the attraction bit further..Infatuation can cause a lot of problems when it gets out of hand - we get to read many reports where men and women infatuated with another person take to crime when there is no reciprocation from the other person..

I also thought the same that infatuation is love in the beginning but in fact love is altogether different although every love begins with infatuation. Once you know the true color of love infatuation fades out of the picture.

what is the difference between infatuation and attraction?

Infatuation is for opposite sex persons which may be just lust or starting of love. But attraction can be towards any person....physical appearance, characters, behaviour or internal beauty.
