Love vs. Love

[Ozme52]

Well, maybe part of jeanne's point is that being asked why you love someone... or what their best traits are, and getting an answer that focuses on oneself, makes one wonder where the focus really is...

and of course... in my case... it is indeed all about me...

But seriously, I think that while love and/or admiration has to flow both ways, if you can't verbalize it in any terms other than how he or she makes you feel, or that you love or admire him or her because they chose you... perhaps one is more infatuated than in love.

Or at least... that's my first thought... maybe I'll have something better later.

i quite like this explanation - a usable method of distinguishing these emotions.
