speak on it

and would you be upset if your s/o told you that they still had love for their ex, but was no longer in love with them

I really dont see the difference

Being in love is all that storybook, Hollywood butterfly bullshyt that usually doesn't last.

Loving someone is doing what you truly believe is right for them even if it means they get hurt in the process. You can tell if someone loves you based on what they're doing for you.

loving someone doesnt necessarily denote a sexual connotation. You deeply care for this person --- it could be a significant other, best friend, family member, etc.

Being in love with someone communicates a sexual interest, on top of the normal things that would accompany deeply caring for another.

Out here in my damn drawls
That in love shyt is gabbage to me. It's really just semantics to try and placate the person you're with at the time. I believe you can love more than one person at the same time and that's fine. It's kind of naive to believe that one person can have a monopoly on someone else's feelings. People are fickle and complicated and it's nothing we can do about it :manny:



:ufdup: As long as they have enough respect for you not to fukk around with someone else it's good, imo

As stated b4, Once I love you, I will always have love for you. That doesn't mean I want to be with the person, that I should be with them or want them. Caring about their well being but not needing to be in their life or wanting to be.

Being in love is the desire for a person. It is the present. You want them, you care about them, and want to be there.

being in love is something deeper..... when you're in love with someone everything with them seems better. They are your best friend, lover and confidant.
Loving someone is like you have more than just feelings for them.

Hell
IT'S THE SAME. JUST ONE OF THEM GETS THE dikk AND THE OTHER DOESN'T.
Aaaaaaaaand the thread is now closed.

This is really the only difference. That's why it's weird to say you're in love with, say, your mom :merchant:

Because being in love with someone implies you love them and y'all fukking :youngsabo

Or at the very least physically attracted to them

to me being in love with someone will drive u to do some crazy things in the name of love. where as loving someone is that more mature way of having feelings for someone.
