Is admiration the same thing as love?
Responses
Two different things. You can have both with one person or you can have one but not the other with a person.

That might depend on what definition of love you are using.
Some people call a warm feeling about someone else love. Admiration is something like that.
The deepest meaning of love, however, is seeking the best for someone else even if they disgust you at the moment. This goes way past the level of admiration.

Different things.
Love is work, action and only action.
You can not feel love you can benefit form the actions done but love, what the word really means is not something you can feel it is something that is done.
Admiration is an appreciation of such things.
When you see love you might admire the things that were accomplished by it or the deeds themselves may evoke such feelings but it is not the the thing itself.
