BEING IN love is a whole different ball game. Being in love is finding your bestfriend in that one person. Someone you would die for, or do anything for. Someone you know in and out. Someone who is your other haft. Your boyfriend, or girlfriend. ♥ [ MummuM's advice column | Ask MummuM A Question ]

Keosha answered Saturday September 9 2006, 1:43 pm: I say this to my boyfriend so i know what your talking about. You can love someone and have love for someone.. like a friend..or a best friend...or your parents... Like i got much love for my man...but i am not IN love with him. Being in love is something that puts a whole new perspective to the word love when you speak it. Love is beautiful..but it can be ugly. Sometimes we arent ready to fall or be in love but we want to badly..so we say we have much love for you in a way of misplacing those feelings we want to have but are afraid to let out. I hope I helped. [ Keosha's advice column | Ask Keosha A Question ]
Vikki27 answered Saturday September 9 2006, 4:41 am: There is a difference between loving someone and being IN love with them. It's hard to explain because you would need to experience both to truly understand.
Look at it this way. You love your parents and your pets. You love the clothes you wear and certain foods you eat but you're not IN love with any of that. In the same way, you can love someone you have been with for some time without being IN love with them.
The thing with love is that it can take so many different forms like that and often it can be difficult to work out exactly how you feel about something/someone. A lot of marriages and relationships break down becaus one or other person in it realises they love the person in a 'never-want-to-see-anything-bad-happen-to-you' kind of way but they're not IN love in that all consuming 'I-may-break-down-and-die-if-I-can't-spend-the-rest-of-my-life-with-you' kind of way.
