Hi,

Infatuation vs. affection

What's the difference?
Thanks.

You're in luck, look at the "Synonyms: love, affection, devotion, fondness, infatuation" paragraph.

Haha, I wish i was.

But can we say:

I have an affection towards her.
I have an infatuation towards her.

Do both mean the same?

No, they don't.

'affection' - a gentle feeling of fondness
'infatuation' - intense passion, usually short lived.
