How do I know if this is love or crush only?


Question Posted Sunday April 17 2005, 12:31 am

Hello everyone, how can you know if it is really love or not. There's this guy who I have a crush on for four years plus already and I still can't forget him. Whenever I see him last time and he goes near me, my mind can't think anything. It's like my mind is saying say something say something but I can't think of anything to say. Now, I'm worried about him and I don't know if this is really love. If it is, could it be possible that love exist at my age? I'm 16. And could it be possible that you love someone you don't know really that much?

If you have to question whether you are in love or not, you probably aren't. Seriously, it sounds cliche but you'll honestly just know, when the time comes. I do think it's possible to fall in love at a young age, I'm only 15 and I am, but I don't really think it's possible to love someone you don't know all that much. You may think you are, and you can't stop thinking about them, but you can't have that special connection (the connection you have when you're in love, if you know what I mean) with that other person, if you don't know them. Sorry if that didn't make sense.. But good luck! If you got to know him and became friends, maybe it'll turn into something!

I think you're suffering from longing and lusting syndrome. You want him; you know you want him. You said so yourself. You've wanted him for over four years. I don't think it's love. Don't try and make yourself love someone you don't know. You'll get hurt. This is just a reallyy long crush. Yes, love is possible at such a young age. I'm younger than you, and I can say that I do love someone. (and I know it's not lust. Which is important.) However, it is not possible to love someone you don't know that much. If you're just seeing him on school days and you're not talking to him or getting to know him, it's not possible. I say this because... well, you don't know anything about him. Maybe he's hiding something, or isn't public about something. There are things that you have to know before you can really love someone. If you don't know about him, it's not possible to love him. Yeah, you can like him.. but not love. Not yet.
Try and talk to him. Plan something in your head to talk to him. Practice in front of the mirror - saying over and over - "Hey! How are you?" It's that simple. That's all you have to say to start with. Work off of that. Tell him 'hi' and 'bye', then maybe you can get his AIM Screen Name, maybe an E-mail address. You'll work off of that, too. When you're friends with him (You have to know him. Not know OF him), and the time is right, maybe you could tell him that you like him. Don't tell him right off the bat that you're crazy about him - that'll only scare him away! Be his friend. Maybe you'll find that you don't like him anymore. Maybe you'll like him even more.

No one can tell you if you are in love or not. You probably most likely arent. Whenever someone really likes someone, they think they are in love. Only time can tell!

I think it is able to fall in love at any age i'm only 13 and i'm in love. it's possible. I've been in kinda the same situation that you are in and still am. It's hard because you feel that you should really get over them and move on with your life because you know or are thinking that they don't love you as much as you love them and never will so whats the sense in telling them if nothing will ever happen. But you still don't know if he'll fall in love with you because from what i understand you don't really talk to him. I think you should try to talk to him or join somthing that he's in. Or just get his screename!People are way easier to flirt to online. thats how all me and my boyfriends got tight. Well i hope i helped!!!!

luv,

HyperactiveMiss answered Sunday April 17 2005, 3:00 am:
Love has so many meanings to it. Love depends on how YOU see it. Some people think it's not true love if it ever ends, some people think true love is only true love if you love that person forever, some people believe it is possible to have "loved" someone even if you don't love them anymore.

This world is so full of hatred and all of that junk. I think it's worth the risk of telling someone you love them, appreciated them, and admire them, rather than always wondering for the rest of your life if you should have told them how you felt.

In MY opinion I DO think it is POSSIBLE to fall in love at a young age. That does NOT mean it will last forever though and it does NOT mean you WILL find true love. It is only a possiblity. Love is definitely an overused word that has lost a lot of meaning to many people, but that doesn't mean it is impossible for anyone young to be in love.

Big crushes can be mistaken for love. That happens all the time.

In your case, I don't think you can love someone you don't know. I think love takes time, it takes time to get to know someone and love who they are. Who knows, you might be in love with the guy. But you can't be sure unless you actually get to know him and spend time with him. My advice to you would be to admit your feelings to him. The truth is, we never know if we have a tomorrow. I don't think you'll want to let great things pass you by. Dating is about experience and bonding with someone and finding out what you need and want. You won't always find love at first, but it is better to have gained the experience than to not have at all.

Yes it is possible. Since you don't know him that well it's probably not true love though.You may love the idea of being in love. You have to know a person well enough to love them with all their faults laid out there. You just don't know him well enough for that.That doesn't mean you can't go after him and see! Go put yourself out in front of him and start talking. Good luck :)

MmMmk! I doubt this is love. However its very well posssible to love at that age. I dont think you love this guy. You just might lust him.. instead of love him. Its probably a fling thing.. i know it wont seem like that but i would just try to get to know him better! It could be love though in the future!!-trix

Sounds like a textbook example of a crush, not love.
