While a crush may eventually turn into love, it might be hard to know exactly when that moment happens. Sometimes, you might really care about someone and love them as you would one of your friends, but actually falling in love with someone is quite different. The main difference is that a crush is a temporary infatuation with a person, even if the thoughts of actually being with them are unrealistic or they are unavailable.
Falling in love is more of a head-over-heels, unconditional feeling of deep affection for another person. Do you have a crush, or are you genuinely in love? Take this 'Do I Have a Crush or Am I in Love?' quiz and find out!
