Here are some quotes about liking someone that might remind you of that feeling you have always desired:

- "When you love someone, you love the person as they are, and not as you'd like them to be." — Leo Tolstoy
- "I like you, a lot. Like a lot, a lot."
- "Love is liking someone better than you like yourself."
- "The best part of liking someone is when they like you back."

I hope these quotes help! Let me know if there's anything else I can help with.
