Like or love? Is there a difference? Hmm, I never thought about it before until a question comes from a friend of mine. It makes me starting to ponder. What is the difference ya? Then, as I looked through the dictionary to relieve my curiosity, I found that there is a slightly difference between ‘them’. Like can be defined as something that is liked; a preference, whereas love is a deep and tender feeling of affection for, attachment or devotion to a person; a feeling of brotherhood and good will toward other people.
In my opinion, like is our preference towards someone or something that we feel good to be with. On the other hand, love is a deep feeling inside our heart towards someone special such as our God, family, spouse or maybe a good friend. If we say that we like or love something, the meaning is almost the same. However, if we claim that we like or love someone, it will be totally different. Why is that so? I think it is because love involves our feeling, and it involves human emotion. Usually, loving someone means that you like he/she, but liking someone does not guarantee that you love him/her. That’s how like and love are different.
