What is the difference?
Love; an intense feeling of deep affection.
Tenderness, warmth, intimacy.
In love: romantically attracted to someone
Enamored, smitten, mad
Same way attachment is different from genuine love
“I love you so I want you to make me happy”;
“I love you so I want you to be happy”
Love is selfish.
Loving someone is more about oneself than them.
Loving someone is only concerning oneself.
In love is caring.
Being in love is about how some can make someone else feel
Worrying about how to make them feel loved as well.
Loving someone is easy.
Friends, family, the summer fling.
In love takes four seconds to happen,
but takes an eternity to realize.
It’s falling hard.
Love is fleeting.
Love is not long lasting.
In love is forever.
In love is fights and make-ups.
Someone in love can be totally obsessed.
Someone who loves could not care less.
