    Crushes= usually don't know the other person really well. generally spurned on by physical attraction. Usually shallow. a "I like you" feeling.

    Love = you know the other person, have been with the other person for quite some time. an actual deep feeling.

    The video explained it a lot better, though.

    A crush is based on physical attraction and superficial knowledge of the person. Even if you know them well, the feeling of love in this sense isn't deep. It can be fleeting or temporary, even though at the time it seems like love.

    Love is when you know the person much better and you grow fonder and fonder of them with time, knowing that with the good and the bad you only grow closer. That's not to say you like their bad traits, but you embrace them. Love takes time to develop, it's a much deeper connection. From the time you meet someone 6-9 months would be the minimum for a crush to become love, and typically it needs to be requited to grow into love or it's based on fallacies. Trees need fertile soil to grow.

    Crushes are generally when you don't know someone that well, based on your hopes and expectations about the person. Love comes when you really know them and your feelings just get stronger instead of fading.

    Ahem.
    Just to translate:
    Like can lead to Like-Like, and Like-Like can lead to Love.
    So essentially, a crush can lead to mutual attraction which can then in turn lead to love.
    The song and how they feel about each other (sexual mostly and a touch of nerves as they are unsure) are very characteristic of 'crushing'. However, you can't skip from crush to love without the mutual attraction part. Otherwise, it's not love. Love is a two-way street in my opinion.

    I thought the video was relevant...

    The term "Like-Like" always reminds me of Hey Arnold! for some reason xD

    But I agree with Corina here. and Pretty much what others have said prior as well :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    as for crush vs love...crush can be very shallow and more a need than want.. love its more emotional its not based on teh physical more the emotional.... and usually gets you in lot more trouble..

    Crush is an instant attaction based on physical for mental appearences.

    Love is something that develops over time. It tends to be things you notice your partner does like:
    How he/she smiles at certain things.
    A way they laugh
    how a certain food makes them feel.
