Basically it is the same attraction between a man and woman, with a shade of difference in the semantics.

Love is undefinable- lots of people smarter than you or I have tried from Shakespeare to the metaphysical poets. Affection is a feeling of goodwill to someone, it can be manifested physically, it can be romantic or between family members or friends
Attraction- its definitely not love and it doesn't have to be a crush. It can be between two people that walk past each other. It can be from one person to another without the other feeling attraction.
A crush: crushes are when you know of someone, maybe at school, or have been hanging around them, and you have the hots for them. It could be for a celebrity even. Its based basically simply on liking them/ their style and that accelerating. Its not love.
Infatuation is stronger than a crush. It is basically like a strong crush. Maybe its someone you hang out with a lot and you just love everything about them but nothing has happened between you as an example
All of the above are illogical and therefore can be categorised as one form of craziness or another, hence some "crimes of passion" excuses are run in law.
This is a good question. Although love cannot be defined it can be contrasted with the others. You have to have been with someone emotionally and sexually to love them fully I think

All these are feelings but let me break them in my own understanding:
-Love is a deep feeling u feel 4 someone u know
-Affection is a warm feeling u show to someone becuz u fold of them
-Attraction is also a feeling that develops as u get to know someone
-Infatuation is a feeling that blinds u in thinking u love someone even when u dont know them cuz there are good looking,charming etc
-Crush is a feeling u get in wanting to be with someone u've bn seeing but u dont know them well
-Crazyness is wan u cant stop thinking about that one person,all u want is to b with them
What is similar in all these things?
No dictionary,just my head.

These are my personal definitions:
♥ Love is deep affection for someone. It's very hard to describe but it's not selfish but has true interest in the other person's happiness; despite giving this person all you have, instead of feeling drained, you feel happy.
♥ Affection is a deep like for someone. It doesn't necessarily mean romance but you enjoy their company and feel comfortable around them.
♥ Infatuation is when you can only see the good in someone and forget their faults. It's rather selfish because you only see what they can do for you.
♥ A crush is when you've gotten to know someone and want to be around them a lot. You start to think about them romantically and enjoy the thought of it.
♥ Craziness is as craziness does!!

Simply the intensity of the illogical emotional insanity involved. Although you forgot Obsession, though that could fall under craziness I suppose. Sad thing is I realize that being love is only an illusion, where love is a choice, and I am a romantic. Go figure.

Love is action and motivation. Love is hard work sometimes.
The rest of those are just emotions...
