Best Answer

Love is about being honest with each other, enjoying one another and respect. It's loyalty and commitment to each other and also, trusting that person so each of you can have "head space" when you need it. E.g. If you wanted to on a vacation with your girlfriend(s) and your boyfriend trusted you enough to go and vice-versa.

Obsession is an emotion based on insecurities. This type of relationship is a plaque with doubts and questions that don't have answers because the channels of communication have never been completely open and a genuine sense of trust doesn't exist. You become this obsessed person's possession and they will shower you with gifts (flowers, candy, jewelry, etc.) even on the first date. You can tell if you are with a person that is obsessed over you if you don't feel like you are spiritually, mentally and psychologically moving ahead in your life around this person and they have stunted your growth into making you a dysfunctional person. They want all of your attention and will try to get you away from family and friends and they can be extremely suspicious of whom you were with and where you have been. The person will make you feel doubtful and you begin to feel smothered and that the relationship is not beneficial and may cause you to do things you may later regret. If you find it difficult to communicate with this obsessive person (he only has eyes for you and doesn't even realize your problems, never mind yours) then you need to move on.

What does love obsession mean?

what is love obsessionpls i would like to knowAnswerLove and obsession are not the same sometimes people confuse the two. If you really love someone you will not be obsessed with them. You will think about that person a lot and he or she is very important in your life and when the love is new you may feel obsessed with that person at first...you can't quit thinking about them, want to spend as much time with them as you can, and your world basically revolves around them but it's a normal thing when it's love. Obsession is unhealthy and many times is not real love. Its a strange, unrealistic emotion and is almost always one-sided. There is also people who are obsessed with just being in love and they don't really care who it is - they just want to be in love with somebody and are obsessed with making that happen.


Is love really just an obsession?

In some ways, it is. I'm young, and I'm in love right now. I understand what you're going through, and by saying that I'm young, I'm no older than 15. You are constantly thinking about him/her, and imagining life with him/her at your side. Love = Obsession and Obsession = Love.
