Love is when they suck your dick
Obsession is when they don't

since you said you were curious, i don't feel like I'm being mean to you to say this: that is totally stupid. Obsession is pretty clearly defined as unhealthy in nature. If you really, honestly love a girl that dumped you, you would let her go, for example. Not obsess over her.

I actually believe that if you are obsessed with someone, you dont love them. Not truly, not properly. Maybe you did once, but it's grown and twisted into something ugly.

that is easy, just think of the obsessions going on on acf, and esp ones that always must have the last word, even when it isnt in the same thread.
that is an obsession.
love is nothing like that.

depends on your definition of love, but i still imagine an enormous overlap.
some guy rock climbs 8 hours a day, does he love rock climbing or is he obsessed with it? does it make a difference if rock climbing loves him back? maybe in the long run, since if rock climbing doesn't love him back it will never appreciate him.

Odd place to ask the difference.

It's kind of a vague question, just because yeah everything is dependent on circumstance, of course.
You could argue for the truth of it, but I find nothing useful about the question.
You could also ask "Is the only difference between washing your hands more than once in a row and OCD...circumstance?"
Well yeah, but what defines circumstance? Is circumstance really the only difference? etc.
So arguably true but not useful would be my take on it.
