loving someone is when you keep on thinking about him or her and cant stop talking about him or her, he or she is always someone you want to be with and share things with. When you cry you want him or her to cheer you up, when you laugh you want to be laughing with him or her. \n\ni dont think its the same, love and in love is different. but i'm not sure whether i'm right or not, i guess in love it means you are having the strong feelings the chemistry going on and the next thing you know maybe making out and sex. while just "do you love me?" its opposite, not 100% sure though.

What do you need help with? do you not want to be in love? Being in love with someone and having strong affection are easily mixed up. If you are in love there are no ifs, ands, or buts. You'll know it.

Yes! I believe that you can still love a person and not be in love with them anymore. I've been there and its hard, but its very possible.

Loving someone and being in love is different, can you fall in love? Well that depends on what you want in a relationship. Falling in love happens when you and your partner both share the same dreams, goals, ambitions and desire to have the same kind of relationship, and life. Love in general grows over time, look at how your relationship with this person is now. How does he make you feel about yourself, do you laugh together, do you communicate with each other? Being in love is great, but it does not always last, relationships take work. This is what we fail to realize, we all want the fairytale or Hollywood version of being in love which we all know dose not exist. What is important is can you see yourself with this person 5, 10 years down the road, based on the qualities he has now, if you can then why? If you can't then why not? The answers will determine the issues you may or may not have currently and weather or not your in love won't matter.

The word love is used in many way, some of which are confusing:\n1 -- Being in Love is a phrase used to denote a romantic attachment.  This is similar to a crush, only more so.  There is usually a sexual interest.\n2 -- Loving someone is usually a mutual emotional attachment.  It is both an emotion and a bonding force.  The bond is strengthened by communication, trust, mutual interests and intimate physical contact.\n3 -- True Love is a state of total acceptance (unconditional).  This very rare, yet often sought.  It comes from out of nowhere.  It does not fade with time.  It is a gift from Divinity.\n\nPS  If someone says that they love you but are not in love with you, then they are communicating poorly.  What they usually mean is that they love you like they would a sibling or friend, with no sexual interest.

Love cannot be defined. It is like catching the wind.. try as you might, it doesn't happen. You can say a million words describing it, but if you can describe it, then can it really be love? Thats just my side...

you're definitely not in love. its all infatuation. would caution u to think twice before making such decision (to marry). when u have doubts, don't do it.

I love this question,.. \n\nOK,.. so there is \n1. 'loving' someone \n2. being 'in love' with someone.\n\nRemember this, you can LOVE anything, anyone at any given time,.. love is nothing more than the desire to have a feeling, it can be a feeling for material things, for a certain hair cut, for clothes, anything. the 'love' will usually disappear after the desire has been for-filled, kinda of like an affair, a summer fling...\n\nBut being in love is deep. There are no words that can describe that, that's something that you just know! Its something that you feel so deep inside it makes even your bones shake. Its pure, not artificial. Its not demanding, not destructive or misleading,.. its like being at peace all the time in your heart. Its forgiveness. Happiness, compromise, understanding and communication. It just fits!\n\nHope that helped

When I was in love I just told that. That is the best way. I think we people are very strange race. We love each other but don´t tell. What´s all about this. Is it really so hard to say: Hey, I like you, and I think I fellt in love with you???

Here's the old mystical I Love Vs. In Love question again. If you Love him and Respect him, ask yourself what would be differant if you where "IN LOVE" with him? You have already stated "we are totally comfortable with each other from day 1. We laugh a lot, rarely argue, understand one another, accept one anothers faults and strengths. The sex is quite fun as well." How else would you quantify a good relationship? Then ask yourself the real tuff question, could you live in England? Are your skills that transportable? Could he live here? Are his skills that transportable?

Being in love.\n\nIt's so wonderful but... crazy-intense at the same time.\n\nYou want it but you don't.\n\nWierd.

I just answered a similar question. Many people believe "love" is difficult to define completely. I am one of those people. However, I do think these three attributes are *essential* to the meaning of love:\n\n* Love requires that one must be willing to make great sacrifices for the person.\n* Love cannot be established without deep familiarity with a person (which *can* be gained quickly).\n* Love must inspire a person to be better than they currently are.\n\nMany people who claim they are in love really are not. It is common for immature people to say they are in love because they have not had enough of the hard-earned experience understanding their emotions which is required to recognize the difference between love and infatuation.

Well to me, Love is a feeling, so yes I believe we could really define love as a feeling... I mean when I fell in love with this one person, this person made me feel things that I could not explain... Like I would always wake up happy, and proud everyday... I would do things that I would never do, why because the feeling of love gave me something to live for... To be loved or to love, is the greatest thing that God has ever given us... It's a feeling inside that no one can bare to describe... I really don't know how to put this, but to me it's just the bestest feeling in the world... I guess in order to actually understand it, you have to feel it within you... Saying you love someone in a way is a different story and in another it does relates to how a person feels... I mean you can say you love them,  but in reality, just like them... But than again if you feel that you love them, and you know that he/she is the one that you love, and that keeps you living than that's love... So yes you can...
