A Crush
This is more playful. It may be someone that you are kind of into but not necessarily are really thinking of being with. This is more of an admination from afar type of thing.
Infatuation
This is a little stronger than a crush. You think about it a little more but it is still something that is not really realtionship driven.(More of a casual dating type thing.) more serious than a crush cause you will focus on the person as a whole rather than superficial thing but it is still more in theory than practial application.
Being Enamored
This is where you are with someone and you find all those things that you like about them and they make you wonder if this is the one. You see so many qualities that you admire and always though you wanted but you feel like if this was real I wouldn't question it. It is definately not the real thing but so close it makes you wonder.
True Love
This is the hard one cause all of those things that you say about your ideal mate. He doesn't have them all yet you love him despite that. He is the last person you think of when you go to bed at night and the first person you think of when you get up in the morning. You love him for his good points and don't fault him for his bad ones. All and all it is someone who makes you happy and would never want to see you hurt.

Well it's a very legite question.
I mean, how do you truly know? There's sexual chemistry (lust) and real love (good friendship)...
The interesting thing to note is that energy is energy is energy. You can love your pet, friend, gf/bf, husband/wife, or even a family member. It's the same energy. (some may argue with this but that's ok)
So when you are infatuated with someone or lustful, it's usually out of sexual desire, but to truly love someone, the feeling deep down your stomach would tell you differently. Can't really describe it but everyone knows it's there.
Sexual energy usually has a temporary affect, you're lustful for only a short time, then you notice how annoying the onther person can be.
That's my take anyway...

A crush is when you first notice someone and think to yourself, Boy I’d sure like to meet him. Then you start dating and you become infatuated with each other. Cant get enough seeing/talking/kissing. Every time you talk about something with your friends their name comes up such as “oh you went to the beach ? Me and so and so went to the beach yesterday blah blah blah. They come to your mind no matter who your with or what your talking about. Then when you get to know and like them you become enamored by the things that make them unique from others. You just think they are the best thing since sliced bread. Then its on to the sometimes dreaded love. I'm not exactly sure I know what “real love” is. Since I'm single I obviously haven’t mastered that yet. But I would say real love is when your with someone who knows all your down sides and still loves you. The person who knows your painful past and never picks at your scabs but makes all your fears go away. The person who is concerned about you as they are concerned about themselves.

It's all divine, love. It's simply a question of degree, of willingness to surrender to the divine, to honor the divine in each rather than exerting one's own will. The test is in wanting the best and highest in the other and the willingness to do whatever is necessary to promote that, including letting go if necessary. And when THAT kind of love is consumated, it is heavenly.

overwhelm is a few thing like while i'm having a overwhelm on somebody(and that i hav on somebody rather) than I merely choose that he might desire to sense the way for me as I do for him and the actual love dosn't say so its eternal.
