 Annie my dear it is not necessariy bad that you lust for your partner more than you love him, but consider if the two of you are together for the rest of your lives i.e til old age, you may not lust after him them because looks may have faded, teeth may not be as sparkling, skin wont be as glowing etc and the lust will fade, but if you have LOVE for the man, then even though he maynot be as dashing as he was, or as gorgeous etc, you still want to be with them because the LOVE outweighed the LUST and lust does fade, but LOVE goes on forever. LOVE carries on when the person dies, when the person is bad to you, when the person doesnt even look good anymoe, LUST is conditional, you LUST after that which is desirable. Its goood that youdesire your partnert so much, but LOVE far outweighs lust because LOVE is like a circle, it neverends. I dont believe you fall out of love with someone, LOVE goes on and on and on...... you can fall out of LUST though, i.e. one day, you are not so interested in sex with them because you dont have that bodily desire for them etc. xXx

 No I dont think it is because love can sometimes, but not always, grow out of lust and, as has been said, they can complement each other.

Annie07 is verified as being by the original poster of the question Thanks for the replies. I know so many people that cant explain to me the difference, that it had me thinking about it too. Is it a bad thing to lust for your partner more than love?

Of course there is a difference my dear but because they may be seen as similar, some get confused between the two. Lust is where you see something which you want to ravish and you desire it with all your heart, love on the other hand is a feeling deep in the core of your heart and when you love someone so much, it actually hurts, i.e. if you love someone, there something moves within you for that person. Lust is just a case of I desire that thing and I want it now. Now as Yos said, they perhaps do compliment each other but I would prefer to say that you have sexual love for your partner and friendship love, i.e you must be physically turned on by your partner but there must also be a love which goes beyound bedroom antics. xXx

 Both! The two complement each other nicely in my opinion.
