Love and Like: what's the difference?

Dear Advice Girl,

I’ve liked this guy for two years now. I think I’ve fallen bad, but I want to know the difference between "love" and "like." Help!

Signed,
   Aerials

Dear Aerials,

Everyone has their own definition of love. But since you asked me, here’s the real answer: love means strong commitment, respect and understanding (not just the mushy romantic stuff). And that comes with time.

Think you’re in love with this guy, but you've never even dated him? It’s just a crush.

But hey, that’s not a bad thing. "Like" can turn into "love" if both people want it to. So ask out your crush and get going on it already!

 

Love,
   The Advice Girl

Thing is, there's a 3rd category: Lust. That's when you like a desire a person for their physical features and not the person. Be careful because lusting can be dangerous.

I don't think that you have to date the person to fall in love with them...

You can love a guy without dating him; it's happened to me twice. It's a horrible experience because you get too hung up on them and forget who you really are. But yeah It's possible, but it hurts a lot when they do something that breaks your heart and their life doesn't even skip a beat. so here's my advice DON'T fall in love with someone you're not dating. And if you are in love with them, it's kinda too late now, just don't fall any deeper. Try to hang around other guys to get over him because he's not dating you for a reason, and just because you love him, doesn't mean you're dating and if you're not dating, you don't have to act taken.
