I'm not claiming to be some expert, but these are just some of my casual observations about the difference between love and a crush. As my priorities have slowly but surely been shifting in these past few years in the great realm of "wifeandkids-dom", these are the things I have noticed.
A crush is when you get nervous wondering if they called, or if you should you call them.
Love is calling them just to hear their voice to find out how their day is going. And, you actually care to know.
A crush is getting very excited to 'fool around' every time.
Love is taking comfort in just having them lay their head on your chest as they fall asleep and hearing them breathe. (But fooling around is still great too:-)
A crush is when you're dating and you barely argue at all.
Love is wondering what they are up to or thinking even after they may have angered you to the point of high blood pressure 20 minutes ago in a huge fight.
A crush is hoping everyday you get 'that feeling' in the pit of your stomach when you see them.
Love is knowing that you're not going to feel 'that feeling' everyday anymore as time passes, but being confident that that is okay.
A crush is glamorous.
Love is not always glamorous.
A crush is being with that person because they make you happy.
Love is being happy by making that person happy.
A crush is having great days with them each time you hang out.
Love is having great days with them, but knowing that other days you are going to have to work at making it great. You will find that earning it is much more rewarding.
And last but not least,your crush may not always be your love, but if you're one of the lucky ones, your love will be your crush.
Being single certainly was fun, but to me, family is what life is all about.
