text: I disagree with some of these answers. I think "like" is the one that yells it out and "love" is more quiet. Like is that first feeling when youre infatuated and sometimes obsessed with someone. REAL love doesnt happen at first sight, or on one romantic night, it creeps in slowly over the years and is stable and secure. All the butterflies and kisses in the rain, thats just to make movies more interesting.
