Love,Lust and Life

The name sounds similar to a daily soap that had been a sensation for years in a television channel.I am speaking about what I have seen happening around me in my campus(Not confined to my campus).Falling in love is nothing so novel,but the frequency with which people fall in love really asks for redefiniton of love,I think its infactuation and not love.When one enters into the college,there are a lot of expectations that you expect apart from your academics,friendship is a sure part of that,but many,infact almost all expects to fall in relationships thats hard to be named(infact people still finds name).This is the age where you expect, to crop up between you and someone, a relationship ,almost unknowingly for the first time,from the second time it happens to be something "intentionally unknown",infact I have seen guys who take it as a challenge.When I say from second time,you wonder is it something of a customary to get involved in relationships one after the other.But a feeling of forgetfullness and professionalism has risen up in this "field" that you see new relationships mushrooming up more than there are break-ups,thanks to the urban culture,emotions are nothing more than show offs and as far as love infact true love is concerned,that has flown out of the windows a long time back.I still wonder why someone need a word "true love".I really would love to know what is 'LOVE' and 'TRUE LOVE'.I think its better to be defined as 'being in love' and 'not in love'.Todays friends are tomorrows lovers and vice-versa and the flexibility in such relationships to shape roles in both relationships has grown many folds.Again I have misused the word love for infactuation,infact its something below even that level.I would never say all love affairs that fill the air are crap,but most of them,I emphasise MOST OF THEM are for reasons that even they find it hard to find.Infact those are all excuses that is cooked up to cover up an idle (most of the time ,inertia to invlove in something worth doing) mind's creation that can never be termed wrong,but can it ever be morally true.Now morality is nothing more than mockery now a days,you dont even find that word in textbooks now a days.So this so called fun filled adventures spice up the years of college life(too much spicy is never good).Once you are out of the college gates to a world where you mean nothing and you are viewed only as a source of benefit for whom you are involved with(In professional and personal life,most of the times profit remains the lone purpose of relationship);Thats the time when you think about your 'adventures' in the college and term it just as a funny game.But again there are times when you try to find the purpose of having had such relationships and end up with not mere than anything other than excuses that you would find not so comfortable to satisfy your inner sense(even thats not much seen with people now a days)But then again you say whats life without having someone to hangout with it even if you dont have any feeling for him/her,you want to powder your character with lust so as to attract some 'special' people and moreover all junks of thoughts to carry with.Time and again ,many vommit off these thoughts and philosophies,still you see in the empty classrooms,at the corners of ice cream parlours,on the back seat of theatres ,people involved in the greatly proclaimed "love" and you(even at times,I am not an exception)sigh silently"mera number kab aayega".(comments are welcome with no personal attacks on anyone.).

Interesting thoughts.

Well, one can only say infatuation to events in the present; because one seriously is unclear about what love or infatuation is.(the present)

Is true love synonymous to your life partner? Or is it something else? Can it be applied to a horde of other people?

I think, it all depends on why one wants 'love' or how one defines love. People are uncertain as to what their true love is. Maybe that could be a reason, why there is a blossoming of relationships which get labeled as infatuations at a later stage.
