Like vs Love

Think of someone significant in your life. Do you love them? Do you like them? Do you see the difference?
Most people can see that you can like some one without loving them but what about the other way around?
There have been times I have felt love but at the same time I felt I did not like that same person. What is going on? Is this the same thing that is going on when a woman will not leave an abusive relationship because she “loves” him? Maybe she loves him but she may not like him. I have heard a woman say this about their young child. This woman said she loved her child but for the last several days she did not like her.
I remember telling my son when he was very young that I loved him and then I stopped and said, “I even like you” because there is a difference and to truly accept someone you need both of the emotions.
