Well, Lots of people mistake things for being things they aren't.

Personally, I think a crush and being infatuated with someone are relatively the same.

But love is different.

When you're in love, you'll know it. You wont mistake it for anything else. You cant. Its unmistakable.

But some people take their feelings too far.

They manifest their own love. They could have a minor crush on someone, yet, if they haven't ever had a BF or GF, they might think they love that person because they are the only person who has ever been close to them.

I think a crush is purely a thing that you get over people you don't know too well. I never get crushes over any of my Girl Friends now, because I know them. Did I have crushes on them before I knew extensive things? Sure. Of course. I think the infatuation thing is on the same line as a crush. In my mind anyways.

Like I said, Love is unmistakable. You cant explain it, except for the fact of saying you cant explain it. You'll just know.

It's not love, it's adolescent teen lust. And if it does by some miracle happen to be love, I don't think you can truely realize it for that until you are older.

You can realize love at any age. If anyone should know, its me, haha, and of all people on the boards, you know what I mean.

You don't have to be a certain age to realize love. You don't have to be a certain age to be in love. Love has no pre-requests. Love has no barriers. You don't pick who you love, It picks you. It can be at any time, anywhere.
