Love requires a stable foundation, only the peaceful can experience love. People who operate with lust are jittery and anxious they cannot just be. The urges of the lustful and passionate drive them insane as they are constantly running away from their madness that wrecks havoc on them when they are by themselves so they escape through all sorts of different ways. Their obsession or clingy nature is just silly as they are not at ease and always unfulfilled in the present looking for something else, something more, something missing.

No matter what the result may be the reality is that they are sick and them escaping the sickness which can be treated with just a pinch of sense is being neglected which will not change anything and in worst case scenario aggravate the issue.

A lustful person is like a fugitive, always on the run and can never be at ease whereas a lover is a free person, who can just be peaceful and dive deep in the ocean of love, open to all the possibilities life has to offer. As your love matures and you become more and more inclusive you become compassionate. That maturing happens when you become less clingy and foster dispassion.

Dispassion is not apathy, it doesn’t mean lack of care, the difference between apathy and dispassion is that apathy leads to dullness whereas dispassion leads to bliss. A dispassionate person understands that nothing is permanent and everything is created and destroyed or gets born and dies. A dispassionate person understands that nothing is worth holding on to or clinging to which is why a dispassionate person can walk through life with ease, detached and with suffering ceased as things come and go he just witnesses it, happiness comes then goes, misery comes then goes.

Compassion is unifying and it takes away the idea of separateness whereas passion is singular. Compassion transcends the constriction of passion and is a love that encompasses everyone and everything. This allows you to develop intimate connections with everything and everyone as intimacy is not about sex or revealing secrets, its about being in touch with your core and when this becomes a reality you will experience everything as a part of yourself.
