    sorry my ignorance, but I'm french

    and I absolutly adore the concept in english of like and love

    right now I really like that girl,we are both interest in each other

    is it right to tell her that I like her, but to love her I have to know her better, or liking a person is more like for friends?

    Like can be like a weaker version of love, or saying you're interested, but not in love yet or so... Though like and love can both be more like describing friends... It all depends on how you mean it... :rolleyes:

    I would say like is either you want to just be friends or you're interested in getting to know them to find out if you love them, and love is then a stronger bond, not just physical, but mental/spiritual. But then there's also brotherly love, I.E. I don't have to know you or have ever heard of you to love you.

    love cannot easily be defined so you can't really get an easy answer. when you are in love you know it's love but you can't really explain it.

    :) I love the picture :D

    Hmm... the difference between like and love is that if you have to ask, you'll never know. You just get a sense of feeling. Sometimes you don't notice it and you're in denial of wether you love someone or are unsure of what the other person thinks which makes you in denial. I was like that at first.

    If you don't yet know the difference between love and like then you have never experienced love....

    Love is the same in any language.

    Perhaps this will help

    Difference between the one you "Love" and "Like"...

    In front of the person you love, your heart beats faster
    But in front of the person you like, you get happy.

    In front of the person you love, winter seems like spring
    But in front of the person you like, winter is just beautiful winter.

    If you look into the eyes of the one you love,you blush.
    But if you look into the eyes of the one you like, you smile.

    In front of the person you love, you can't say everything on your mind.
    But in front of the person you like, you can.

    in front of the person you love, you tend to get shy.
    But in front of the person you like, you can show your own self.

    You can't look straight into the eyes of the one you love.
    But you can always smile into the eyes of the one you like.

    when the one you love is crying, you cry with them
    But when the one you like is crying, you end up comforting.

    The feeling of love starts from the eye
    But the feeling of like starts from the ear.

    So if you stop liking a person you used to like,all you need to do is cover your ears.
    But if you try to close your eyes, love turns into a drop of tear and remains in your heart forever ...



    :)
