Bout of random thinking.

What's more important? Love or lust?

Please refrain from using the "little bit of fun" argument as it has no legs, missing half a torso and gone off it's head.

With blinkers niether.

Well, I'm saying love...... as it's longer lasting and also involves far more people..... Just my opinion..... which I also have about people wanting "just a little harmless fun" (will keep me gob shut on that one though) unless someone wants to start a thread on them....

I think they're both important in their own ways. Two totally different things which can come together but it's not a must.

Besides... As I mentioned before, the only thing which differentiates love for a best friend from love for a hubby is the sexual thing.

So to conclude it's all down there. PMSL =))))))

Which is more important? Well considering another topic debating how wrong it is for your best friend to forget about you when they start dating someone... I'd say lust is. =))) As love is everywhere. But, again, as I said, they don't necessarily go together.

However to conclude again (I know, I'm stupid, you can't conclude like this )... If lust didn't exist, then we'd all be best friends. Get the picture?

Also... Thank you, Shaz. Your question just made me see the big picture as I was stuck on detail so far.

I think love is more important, but lust comes very close behind it in my opinion.

Love. It means more and lasts longer.

Love & Lust are just as important ....... surely you cant Love someone if your not lusting after them, obviously the lusting decreases with time, but has to be there in the first place ......

No worries, Bliss.

To add meat to the bones...

Lust and love are separate things, but not unrelated. Lust is merely a poor imitation of love.

Lust is a desire for sexual gratification. That is at it's core. Do not confuse it with sexual attraction (which I surmise is the "lust" you are talking about AM)

Lust is a means to an end. Take one night stands, the mainstay of lust. They end like they start, really quick. The need to bed that person preceeds all else - and when that need is fulfilled - it's over.

love really, ..too many people lusting after anything with a pulse that bats an eyelid their way, ...i think love, ...genuine love that is, is more lasting and meaningful

Quite honestly, whats more important depends on you the person and where you are in your life. I don't think anyone can say one is more important the other. You know what one I want right now
