Hi, I know some people have asked this question before, but I just need some clarity, what exactly does it mean when someone "loves you", as apposed to someone not being "in love with you"? whats the difference which is more important, which hurts less?

The difference between the two is that being in love implies chemistry and sexual attraction and loving someone is more comfortable,more secure and has less to do with having that on edge feeling. The in love thing is more attractive at the beginning of a relationship but all that high drama, hearts and flowers often moves more toward simple love as time and familarity work on a relationship.I would think that people are more prone to getting hurt when in love but each situation is different. Hope this helps.Good luck.

matron agony auntWhen you love someone,parents, friends etc you care deeply for them, love being around them, support and respect them and look out for them. When you are 'in love' with someone your world revolves around your relationship with that person, you get excited knowing you are going to see them and there is nothing in the world you wouldn't do for them. You actually believe you would die if they left you, however you dont but you do get so hurt that you then need the friends and family that you love to help you get through the pain at losing that special person. Hope this helps you understand a little better. x

well "loving someone" could mean you love your parents, friends, pets, relatives etc...but being "in love" means you love them for every littile detail and you can't live without them and they take up part of you heart, so that if they ever left you'd be "heartbroken".
