What is the difference between want and like?

To want something is to feel the desire to own it, possess it, make it yours, or make it happen (as in wanting someone to love you, or wanting someone dead). To like something just means that you enjoy it and find it pleasing. When you like something, you often want to possess it. But wanting and liking something are still different. Liking something just means it pleases you, whenever it's around or whenever you experience it. Wanting something means that you currently desire to possess it or experience it. When you like something, you want it to be around so you can experience it. For example, I'll always like pizza. But I don't always want pizza. Sometimes I'm not hungry. Other times I'm in the mood to eat something else. But even when I don't want pizza, I still like it.

Which is grammatically correct - 'I believe in you' or 'I believe you'?

Both are correct, with different meaning. "I believe you" means I accept what you say as the truth. "I believe in you" means I think you will turn out well, or live up to expectations, or succeed at an undertaking. In another sense, "to believe in something" means to consider it real or worthwhile. For example: I believe in paying people compliments even when I don't believe them; or I believe in God.

What does someone mean when they say they didn't want to believe something?

The question is not what someone means when they say, "I don't believe something". That means just what it says. e.g "I do not believe in ghosts." Nor is the question what someone means when they say "I can't believe something", which means that you believe it, but that it was unexpected. e.g. " Wow! I can't believe you got a new car" The question is what it means when someone says "I don't want to believe something" This means that you do believe it to be true, but it is something you wish was not true. In other words, bad news. E.g. "Son, I don't want to believe that you failed Math, but apparently you did." "I don't want to believe that the people of our country were stupid enough to elect him, but I guess they did." "I know you told me you were sleeping with another man, but I just don't want to believe it."
