a·dorer n.
a·doring·ly adv.
adore
v : love intensely; "he just adored his wife"
adore
to worship; to express reverence and homage. The forms of adoration among the Jews were putting off the shoes (Ex. 3:5; Josh. 5:15), and prostration (Gen. 17:3; Ps. 95:6; Isa. 44:15, 17, 19; 46:6). To "kiss the Son" in Ps. 2:12 is to adore and worship him. (See Dan. 3:5, 6.) The word itself does not occur in Scripture.

Adore means to like someone a lot, so if someone says they adore you, it means they like you, but it doesn't necessarily mean they like you in a more than a friend kind of way, it is just a strong word for "like."
