Love: Go home before you do something stupid.
Lust: Do something stupid.

 

[Doulosiesou]

Love is when you consider someone else first instead of yourself while lust is when you consider gratifying yourself first with someone else.

 

[Godsfollower]

Love is an action. Lust is a thought.

Love can be costly either emotionaly, spiritualy or financally.
Lust is always for ones own pleasure and desire.
