What is the difference between loving someone and being in love with someone?
[Edit]

Being in love is like a drug... "what can it do for ME?" LOVE is many things, not the least of which is kindness... "what can I do for YOU?" Being in love is about GETTING. LOVE is about GIVING.

Answer

Loving someone is the things you do. Being in love with someone is the great times and bad times you share together.

Being in Love is based on dependability, compassion, respect and compromise. If you don't share those important qualities with each other then its just infatuation and not LOVE.
