friendships are lots of amazing people that can go in and out of your lives. They can be a season friend, or a lifetime frind. If you lose contact w/ an ok friend, you know tht they came into their life for a reason and a season. If you think tht a few or maybe just one friend is amazing, you know tht you will be friends with them forever, for a lifetime.
A love, can have many meanings, and a lot of people dont realize tht. A love can be between two lifetime friends. Between a mother and child. But the love tht you mean is romantic love. You can figure this out yourself, since you will know who you want to marry the minute you see them.

Is there a difference between friendship and love? Probably not. In Middle English the word "friend" means "lover," and it stems from a word in Old Gothic meaning "to love." If anything, it implies a deeper kind of love, one that goes beyond obligation.
Hawaiians have many terms for "friend" that signify varying degrees and types of friendship. Hoaloha (beloved companion), for example, is a general term for friend. Makamaka (face to face) is a friend with whom you share freely. Aikane (probably "dependable") is a close, personal friend of the same sex. Pilialoha (sticky love) is a romantic friend.
"The only way to have a friend is to be one."
Ralph Waldo Emerson.
But many people have trouble making friends because they don't know how to be one. Think of these as guidelines to help remember how to be a friend:
F Freedom give up control
R Respect respect your differences
I Interest take an interest in your friend's interests
E Equality treat your friend like an equal
N Nurture nurture your friend's best qualities
D Devotion be loyal and helpful whenever, wherever, and for
as long as you can.
Pili kau, pili ho'oilo
"Together in the dry season, together in the wet season."
Friendship is love with wings. (Anonymous)
Friendship marks a life even more deeply than love. Love risks degenerating into obsession, friendship is never anything but sharing. (Elie Wiesel)
We say we love flowers, yet we pluck them. We say we love trees, yet we them down. And people still wonder why some are afraid when told they loved. (Anonymous)
As for the Christian view:
What is the difference between "brotherly love" and regular friendship? It would be nice to just say that it is the greater love you have for your siblings than your friends, but the sad fact is that so many people have bad relationships with their siblings, that such a definition is confusing. Ideally, your siblings should be your closest friends in life except for your spouse. (If that is not true for you, it can be for your children if you will raise them properly. That is one of the things we teach in our parenting class. Ask me about it after the service).
The major difference between brotherly love and other relationships is the depth of the commitment. Friendships come and go based on common interests and how close you live. For example, you might have friends at work, but you do not socialize with them other than that. Other friendships may revolve around a sport or hobby, but the relationship does not go beyond that. You also may be friends with those who live close by, but if they move away, it is rare that the relationship is maintained very long other than perhaps a Christmas card. There are certainly exceptions, and I am glad I have several such exceptions in my own life, but that is how most friendships work. There is a different dynamic that occurs among most siblings, even when they may not share other common interests or live nearby.
Again, as Proverbs 17:17 points out, "A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity." I am 3,000 miles from my brothers, but I know we would be there for each other if any of us faced trouble.

Not a lot, a good friendship has love, and a great love is with a friend.

the right thanks to fall in love is with someone who you're acquaintances with 1st! My mom used to inform me this even as i became an adolescent. She pronounced that when you're acquaintances earlier you fall in love, if the love area receives rocky, you could fall back on the friendship. Boy, became she ever proper! if you're no longer acquaintances with your loved one, you better take your time to take action, it would want to advise the adaptation between a wedding ceremony and a divorce...Lord bless you too sweetie...
