what are the difference between idol and lover?
« on: January 23, 2011, 07:14:46 AM »
what are the differences between idol and lover? In relationship, I continuously have a problem finding out whether I really love the person or just idolize he/she ( I meant this in this sense: I become his/her fan, such as becoming a fan of a role model) because of all their good features that I always look up to.
Any suggestion from you guys would be really appreciated!

I suppose the difference is the idol you admire and the lover you engage with.

I guess comparing your experience of love, being loved and loving with that of being a fan, idolising, admiring somebody, will help you to undestand what the meaning and qualities of each is one is to you.

As PsychoMom says your interaction with a lover will be different in each of theses situations.

what is it about your relationships that causes you to question if it is really love?
