I've only been in love once, and i found that this quote completley defines love. It's from the bible (1 corinthians 13), but taking religion aside i think it's a fantastic defintion and a way to know.
'Love is always patient and kind. It is never jelous. Love is never boastful or conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take offense and is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other people's sins, but delights in the truth. It is always ready to exuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes.'

You know when it's love when you would do anything for that person, that is a person who you see spending the rest of your natural born life with having kids, growing old together...
Lust is when you want that person right now but all you could think about is doing something sexual with that person. Physical attraction is all there is. That person maybe really pretty or handsome,but has a bad personality. That's lust. Lust is not love. Lust is lust...

I have had sex in the past with a guy where right afterwards he got up got dressed and took me home. I am engaged and when my fiance and I have sex afterwards we lay and cuddle together we start off with the kissing and stuff like that. it means more and you just know. You know when its all about the sex or when that person you are with wants to spend the rest of their life with you.

Ask yourself: could I spend the rest of my life with this person? If the answer is no, then it's lust. If it's yes, then it could be love.
That is the simple answer, as I know nothing of the details of the relationship. If you have more details that you wish to give, let me know!
