A crush is when you like someone from a far. The thought of that person will make you blush and maybe get all tinggly inside. You could live without this person if you had too. You have a crush on a movie star or a cheerleader in highschool. But love is far different - love has passion and is intimate. The person is usually in your life in some way. You love your mother, father, sister - it they were to pass away you would feel profound grief. Love gives - you want to do something for that person to make their life better and not except to receive something in return. Love - bypasses hair color, skin color and all other things. Love is patient and kind. Crushes do not have these qualities. Love is willing to let someone go and wait for them to come back to you. Crushes can become love but rarely because they are something you feel from a distance. I had a crush on my third grade teacher - seriously but I didn't love him.

you feel bad because your human and have a soul. You can care about anyone but that doesn't mean you love them. A crush is simply an attraction and yes your going to feel bad when something bad happens to them. I mean I felt bad for the couple on tv that had their christmas presents stolen but I didn't have a crush on them.

well in crush you know why you like a person (eyes,some features,voice etc.) but in love you find it difficult why you like a person whom you love...its only time which can tell whether you have crush or love as its said that crush fades with time.but i feel crush can turn to love too if you have a deeper understanding of the person

crush is the begining of the feeling that is gonna make u go after a person it is the start up feeling of like that turns either into true love or just an infatuation,love is the depth of understanding,trust,communication,sharing,caring,feelings that u r now living in with the person,so crush is the starting point love is the continuation of your certainty for the person
