Instead of trying to give definitions for both words, I'll provide an example: While I "like" vanilla ice cream, I "love" banana pudding. I can take or leave vanilla ice cream, but give me a bowl of banana pudding and I'll eat it whether I'm already full or not! Another example: I "like" my neighbors' children, but I "love" my own. If I like something, I have good feelings about it, but if I love something, it means the world to me.
