I love my boyfriend. We've been together for over three years, and we have our arguments, but we always respect each other.
I have a crush on one of my former co-workers. He's attractive, and I could see myself having a physical relationship with him, but we aren't compatible personality wise. In other words, it wouldn't last very long.
So, I get all flushed and flustered when my crush is around, but I feel happy, secure, and unconditionally loved and appreciated by my boyfriend.
Crushes are surface level. Love is much deeper.

Compare it to a sneeze. A crush would be that tingling before the deep breath in. Dating would be the deep breath in before the big bang. And of course love would be the big bang, the actual sneeze. A crush is just the first signs telling you you're attracted to a person and by no means does it mean love, maybe like. Love comes from knowing a person for an amount of time and a caring for that person that no one would be able to take away. Although, I don't believe love is near as monumental as everyone makes out to be. But that doesn't mean you should jump on the first opportunity that presents itself. Anyway, I don't think there is a border-line between the two. It's more like a enormous field.

easy and hard question. crush can turn into love. love can't turn into crush.crush is considering. love already knows. love looks u in the eye. crush plays around and messes with u. love is just knowing something is different here. something big. knowing something is going to last. love knows emotion. crush knows flirting.love knows ur heart. crush knows u like what u see. both last longer than like only one lasts for an unmeasurable time. u don't know exactly when u start to love somebody. when u start crushing on somebody it's obvious to u. lvoe adores everything about that one person. even the silly things. crush goes on only the good things and often doesn't except the bad or the silly.
lol i could go on about this for hours so u should prolly just take that and be happy.

Love is something totally different from a crush..you can have a crush on anybody at any given time..but love is something special..its when you care about that one person, and would do anything for them..when u have a crush u can get with anyone else u like but when u love someone u dont want to be with anyone else

Well LOVE and a CRUSH are two totally different things and it's not like you go from a simple crush to love by crossing a line or border. A crush is simply an infatuation with someone, usually based on looks or "puppy love". Love is where two people have intimate feelings for one eachother and they deeply care enough about that individual to want to be in a romantic relationship with them. Loving someone is loving them through sickness and in health and loving them through the good times and the bad. Accepting someone wholeheartedly for who they are as an individual and not only having a crush on them for their status, wealth or looks.

A crush is a short-term thing, for example I had a crush on someone when I was in high school, but that ended when I moved away. Crushes also tend to be pure physical attraction; love on the other hand is a mixture. In my opinion, it's impossible to be in love with someone that you don't know or hardly know. Love also generally lasts longer (in my case, longer == forever : )).

Love is a strong positive emotion with regard and affection.
A crush is temporary love of a adolescent.
Love is when a person looks beyond the physical person, and Will stick by the person no matter their faults. You want to give your self to the person, unconditionally. Love is patient, honest, forgiving, and kind.
When you have a crush, you love them. But right when the true person comes out, you start to change your feelings. You may leave. Your putting the person on a pedestal. Later they may fall of it, because your expectations of them is too high. A crush is based on lust. It's non realistic.

a crush is more like an infactuation with a person you don't really know that well , you probably just think they are really hott but do not know much about them as a person...there is alot of lust involved but there is no real intimate or emortional attachment...
love.. well love is hard to explain. love requires action; it is a verb, and it requires some sacrifice.... and it is possible to be in love with someone even if it is not returned. that is when it gets really complicated but it can happen.
love kind of sneaks up on you and it's like suddenly to have a revalation and you are like "oh wow am i in love with this person?"
every one has a different experience so i'm not saying it' is exactly like that for you, but chances are if you are in love with someone you have some form of a relationship with them already, ie friends, a person you are dating, ect....a crush is much more detached and artificial
hope that helps a little : )

A crush is a feeling, "in love", if you will. All those wonderful thoughts, butterflies, romance.... that's all "in love". Real, bonifide love is a commitment... a decision to stick by someone through thick and thin, regardless of whether or not you have the "in love" part of things. A relationship may begin with a crush, but if it's built on feelings, it is doomed to fail.

Love is when u already treated the person as your one n only. While crush as juz simply thoughts u have on tat person,u dun mean to spent a lifetime on them.
Normally, crushes dun last long and will go away after u set ur eyes in another target.
