lilmzhotstuff answered Thursday November 29 2007, 7:02 pm: The difference is pretty simple: when you love someone you basically just care about them. When your in love with someone you do more than just care about them, you really feel something special and you always want to be with them and always want to talk to them and you can never get them off your mind. But then if you can't get someone out of your mind, then maybe they're supposed to be there! Hope this helped!

WittyUsernameHere answered Wednesday November 28 2007, 9:55 pm: I love my friends. I love spending time around them, talking with them, laughing with them. I love my family. I love many things in my life. Loving something is just having a large attachment to it, or to them.
Being in love...
I love my friends. But I don't want intimacy with them. I don't want to sleep with them, to talk to them, to make future plans with them, to have kids with them.
Someone I am in love with is someone who is the center of my universe. She is my other half. Someone whom I choose as a partner in my life to share my life with with the possibility of marriage, kids, family, all that jazz.
Being in love with someone is to me knowing that you want to spend your life making that person happy. And understanding the commitment inherent in that. Its wanting to not go to bed angry and work things out. Its wanting to make them smile.
Erinn_the_bamf answered Wednesday November 28 2007, 6:56 pm: The meaning of these words are different to many poeple. This is how I see it:
love= Immense bond that can NEVER be broken. If you have once loved someone, you always will. Whether it be a romantic partner, a family member, or a friend, love doesn't end.
in love= Being romantically in puppy dog love with a person. You're so caught up in how amazing a person is you fall in love with them. Being in love with someone can turn into love, however, if it doesn't, it can be broken. [ Erinn_the_bamf's advice column | Ask Erinn_the_bamf A Question ]
CandyxCanez answered Wednesday November 28 2007, 3:50 pm: This is just my oppinion but;
when you love someone you know they love you back
but when your in love, your loving them and they either dont know, or dont love you back.
that could be the case, but there might not even be the difference. its pretty much the same thing
i was just taking a guess =P [ CandyxCanez's advice column | Ask CandyxCanez A Question ]

When you are in love with someone, you do think of being romanticly involved with them. [ BarkersBeauties's advice column | Ask BarkersBeauties A Question ]
Bestfriendswithimforever answered Wednesday November 28 2007, 11:33 am: Good example ummm, the boy I like and am also good friends with. I love him. And not just as a friend, I honestly love him, but I am not in love him. I think it is more that you are in love with someone, when it is mutual. Like if me and the boy I like ever end up together, it will be then when i fall in lvoe with him. Also, it is better to love someone first on your own, because you can fall in and out of love with someone. And when you do , if you loved them first it is easier to part ways, and be somewhat satisfied .I hope i answered your question.
