More Than Love?

Okay.... I understand this may seem really stupid, but nevermind!! :redface:

Basically I know I have been 'in love' with my boyfriend for a long while, but just recently I have 'grown' a new feeling for him that seems more than being in love. I don't know how to describe it, but the feeling of being in love has been taken to a new level. I'm not too sure if he feels the same & I don't know how to tell him.....

I just wondered if anyone else felt like this?

Eros to agape, perhaps.

I have no idea what profesh is going on about, but I assume you're getting over the lust and its this new thing which is lovely in its own way.. I think its a mixture of love and security and contentment. I think thats the feeling you're talking about anwyay hehe..

Eros - Greek for sexual love, or lust.
Agape - Greek for love.

So, I think profesh is suggesting you have gone from lust to love. Lust can be mistaken for love. Certainly sounds like it.

Indeed. I guess that Christians do have their uses after all.
