I think this is a very interesting question, but one that can't really be answered. You can't describe a feeling of being in love with someone, you have to experience it on your own. It's more than love that you have with a family member, you just "feel" different.

When you love someone, you care for them, you admire them and theyre someone very important in your life. Being in love with someone is more something that could perhaps need to involve a mutual feeling. When you're in love with someone you and that person love eachother unconditionally despite any faults he or she may have. Being in love with someone, you cant live without them, you need them. You see all the beauty in that one person that God intended everyone to see when that person was created and its a feeling unlike anything else. Its as if you found the person who was meant to be by your side forever. When youre in love, you'll know it. Its not just "love", its something words cant seem to describe.

Being in love with someone means that everything revolves around them. You think about them 24/7, everything reminds you of them, you want to be with them all the time, you cant get enough of them.
Loving someone is different because you can love them without being IN love with them. That often is mistaked for being comfortable with them. While you would still do anything for them, not everything revolves around them. You still think about them when something joggs your memory and while lots of things remind you of them, not everything does. I hope this helps and good luck with your bet.

a very good question, when someone talks about loving someone, the person cares about the other, and is willing to do almost anything, similar to unconditional love, like a mothers love
in love is more of a romantic term, where two persons share passion and love for each other, and leads to the start of a family
you need to love someone in order to become in love

Loving someone is the long-term thing that couples have who have been together awhile. The kinks have been worked out and your comfortable with the person.
"In love" is the elation of seeing and being with the person. Just can't get enough, and any time apart is too long.

For me, loving someone is caring about a person. Wanting good things for them. Being in love is feeling your heart swell at the thought of them, adoring them.

being in love with someone is just a one way thing. it isn't really love.
love is two ways and is mutual. you can't love someone who hates you.
unless it is unconditional love (people you love no matter what [family])
but i doubt this is what you are asking.
ok loving someone without them loving you is just having that feeling of when they are around. being in love with someone is the same thing, except it is a little worse. you'll begin stalking them.

Are you telling me that you do not know the difference between the two. In that case, I hope that you do not have a brother.

when you love someone
it is a choice you make
when you are inlove
with someone
it is NOT a choice
it just happens

loving someone-the feeling is already there for a long time
being in love with someone-the feeling is just starting
