I met a boy on this website. We went on a couple of dates, where we talked and got to know each other better. When I am not with him I think about things he says and it makes me smile or laugh. When he touches me my body heats up. I find myself always wanting to be around him.My question is, Is this love or do I just really like him?

I know that feeling and it is hard to say. Might be both.

Your right. It could just be hormones.

it's a good start. you are attracted to him. one day at a time & good luck

I think each person has a different definition of love. For me is not only wanting to be with that person but to do things to make her happy.

The beginning of a beginning. Nice when you get to that stage :)

One thing is for sure, you really like him. Do not rush it, this time is the good stuff. If you fall into love, you will know...and that is when the hard part starts..

so for now, just enjoy and cherish and revel in this stage.

I think its only that u like him...its like that at the start...get to know him better...perhaps,the 'like' will turn into feelings that u will b sure of...all the best

The thing is, when you first fall for someone everything seems great. You love everything about them, including their faults. Then at a certain point it hits you that this is real. You are in a relationship and it's not just a fairy tale. Problems will start to occur in the relationship and you will start to wonder if you are really right for each other.

I am of the opinion that love is something that you have to nurture and work on. I tried to tell my ex partner this but she told me that I didn't love her and it was just lust. She was always rejecting me and our relationship was one long series of dumpings and reconciliations. She wouldn't commit properly and that made it hard for me to commit to her properly. I think that I did love her but I didn't love everything about her and sometimes I didn't even like her because of the way that she was behaving.

This happens in families also. A parent, for example, may love their child but find it hard to like them. The bond will always be there but the relationship may be disfunctional and even destructive. Finding love is not hard. Loving someone unconditionally is much harder. Most of us have this notion that what we are searching for "is true love" and we derive this idea from fiction. We get it from romantic novels and from the movies.

It maybe just raging "Hormones." A person should know when they are inlove. They shouldn't have to ask anyone, if they are inlove.

What you're feeling is not love. It's attraction. You're young and it's easy to confuse the two even for those of us with more experience.
