I think love is more valuable and the better than like .. Love is love, you love someone and you will stand beside him/her although you know his/her weakness .. you are not leave him/her because you love him/her .. you accept and respect what is he/she .. you don't afraid or shame with their weakness, you glad and happy for their strength .. and that's love , girl .. like is something you feel for a while ,, when you get what do you want or you know him/her better, you feel boring and not like him/her anymore ,, you wanna to leave him/her .. and that's like .. love is love .. love is from like someone .. but like is not love ,, you can like someone but you can't say you love them because you feel not right ..

I think like goes for physical attraction and skin color and popularity of a person and love goes for weakness, personality, etc of a person.

my vote and value is for like... when we like something that we have knowledge about that thing and we understand that thing... love mostly is finishing or decreasing after we get things or ones that we love but like... starts just after that.... by knowing better..... like increasing.... by understanding... while... distance ... decrease value of love but like, never ended by distance....

The dictionary defines like to have an attraction or fondness for, but for Love the words strong or passionate are added to the definition for like.

Like is conditional while love is unconditional like love of God. We make 1000 of conditions on people we like. For example, if you love me you will do this to me and that to me and you will obey me. Like has a lots of selfishness and huge power of wanting and wanting and a high desire to own something. For example love always do things for the good of others and has freedom than owning a person. I would say for example love and likeness are like different views of a flower. Like is like picking a flower. I think like wants to pick the flower and own the flower and put it in the showcase or head of the person. I mean it is like plucking the flower and not giving it way to grow. Love is like flower standing in the pot. Love nourishes the flower with water and other things and allow the flower to grow and looks to give goodness and welfare of the flower. Love enjoys the beauty of the flower ever the look of flower and smell of flower and the way it is on the plant. Love never plucks the flower. I think love is unselfish, unconditional, and gives freedom like love of God and love of a mother doing for the welfare of a child.

It is good to see the lots of flowers in a garden rather than to pluck one flower and put it in the showcase.

hmm. but my vote is for like.. love is emotions and blind... while like is with knowledge about the thing that we want to like... for example, you had arrange marriage was no love first... then by knowing your partner day by day, and understanding her, you start to love and like her... if she is good enough to you then this love and like increase day by day of more knowing each other and if not decreasing.... if decreasing you would never love her but you would like her for maybe something for whole of your life even if she is not with you... so love is selfish while like is not....

Like is the root and it leads to love. Without like, the love is just a feeling and it won't have the deep love if there is no like. The liking for anything, is the indirect indication of love and when we have love, there is the like behind it. If we like something, it says we love it. So, the like is just moves on to live and when it join together we can see the fulfillment of all.

well, that is what I really appreciate on your comments. love comes from emotion while like happens little by little with more knowing and understanding... and when it happens, it will be a true and take you in true love... so I think I give value to like more than a love... love is more in limitation of what like is... like valuable is free.. is with knowledge and understanding and rooted in truth and is honest.. while love is not like that. that is just emotion and is too wavy.. is changing colours... but like is not like that... I think first we go through emotion and love... but later, base on our understanding and knowledge of what we loved, if that was right, day by day, we come to like it deeply and permenantly and if our knowledge and feeling comes opposite of that right then we stop liking it...... so my vote is for LIKE.... cause when it happens it will go forever...

Yes, you have got better and broad understanding and wide view on various life related matters. Our experience on various incidents and life learning always point out what is really what and most of our views at most times framed from the experiences and it rarely goes wrong!

why did you say that? I did not mean anything with it just was my idea and thought says like is better and more valuable because that base on truth and when it will happen it will be permanent but love rooted with emotion and not thinking and that is why ending fast and again become alive in something else, so has many colours but like is just one... rooted on truth and honesty and permanent ...

Like is just an emotion or feelings that you adore or appricite him/her and love is unconditional feeling that you accept her/him no matter how or no matter what,even there is few things you dont like about that person you still love him/her so it means love and like is far from love.

When it comes to relationship, definitely I'll choose love. You may like a person but not to the point that you want him/her to be your partner. When you love someone you really long for him and miss him a lot but if your just like him, the desire to be with him is not that intense. There are cases when you don't like your partner but you still love him. I must say most of the times, I don't like the attitude and behavior of my husband but for unknown reasons I love him so much.

I select both because first we like then love what we like....:) For fun I value more on LOVE. These four letters valued the greatest affection to the whole world. And that is what Jesus has done this Holy Week.. The greatest Love of God to mankind. Well to make it fun, I again select love. I'm happy to be inlove and much to be loved by someone..lol.. I love to love,, :)

In my opinion "Love" comes from heart and "Like" comes from brain. Love has high gravity and like has low gravity. Love can spoil one's life but likes are superficial having less effects on one's life. Love is highly sophisticated and is to be greatest.

I think love is a stronger and different kind of like. If we talked about romantic or personal relationship love/like, you have romantic feelings or really strong bonds to whom you love... and love can be different as well, like parental love vs. romantic love. If we talk about items or so, if you love something, it's like you're obsessed with it, while like isn't as strong.
