How do you know if you're in love or it's just another crush; just another boy/girlfriend? Is there anyone who can explain what love is?

Love is a condition or phenomenon of emotional primacy, or absolute value. Love generally includes an emotion of intense attraction to either another person, a place, or thing; and may also include the aspect of caring for or finding identification with those objects, including self-love. Love can describe an intense feeling of affection, an emotion or an emotional state. In ordinary use, it usually refers to interpersonal love, an experience usually felt by a person for another person. Love is commonly considered impossible to define.
The concept of love, however, is subject to debate. Some deny the existence of love. Others call it a recently invented abstraction, sometimes dating the "invention" to courtly Europe during or after the middle ages (though this is contradicted by the sizable body of ancient love poetry). Others maintain that love really exists, is not an abstraction, but is indefinable; being a quantity which is spiritual, metaphysical, or philosophical in nature. Some psychologists maintain that love is the action of lending one's "boundary" or "self esteem" to another. And others attempt to define love and apply the definition to everyday life.

We were at camp and I was really miserable. I was really sad for some reason. But then when we were having dinner, there was a little opportunity for kindness. And it was nothing big. Just a really small act of kindess towards her and all my misery and sadness flew away like you wouldn't believe. I was so depressed I felt like killing myself, but all that was gone in a split second. And come to think of it, it had happened a lot of times before, and I just didn't know it. And it never happens when I'm kind to other people.

love is when two people can't be without each other. it is when two people are insync with one another and just being able to tell what is on the other's mind. it is being honest with one another. Love is being there for one another and making the other feel better when the other is down. It is a very serious thing that can not be taken lightly. It is also being able to tell one another what is bothering them and just being friends

Love is always wanting to be with that certain someone, not just sexually, for that is just lust and it wears out in a couple of years. Wanting to spend all your free time with that person, going out together, respecting each other and their feelings and thoughts. It is defined differently by each individual person on this earth, so for me to tell you what love is, is impossible. You will have to find that out for yourself. Just don't be to anxious to jump in bed with every guy you think you love for, like I said, that is lust and it should not be mistaken for love.

love cant be explained,it has to be felt. once your in love you will know. three's no feeling that can make you feel so good and so bad at the same time. its better to have your heart broken while in love than to never be in love at all.

you don't really know if your in love until you break up with him. When you do if you feel like what ever than you know you don't love him but if you feel like you want to kill yourself and just can't live without him then you are. Also if you would give your life for him Be HONEST!! then you do. hope it helps:)

You know your in love...when you cant get that special person out of your mind, you cant breathe without them and they are your best friend. Trust, honesty and happiness are crucial aspects of love.

Raging hormones = crush
Deep friendship, respect, trust, loyalty = love
