Tener Interés vs. Interesarse

Hola, ¿Cuál es la diferencia entre "tener interés" y interesarse? Creo que he oido "tengo interés" para significar "I am interested" pero la página para interest no dice este. ¿Es tener interés solo para significar interés en una compañia? Gracias!

As in English there are different ways to express similar ideas.

Tengo interés en conocerla mejor (a ella). I have interest in getting to know her better.

Me interesa conocerla (a ella) mejor. I am interested in getting to know her better.

Now we would like to know you better. Please fill out your profile and then begin to ask questions. But put your attempt in you post.

Help. I know I am wrong on the usage/conjugation of conocer.

You did your best and that's what matters. :) - rac1, Mar 19, 2016
Personally, I would drop the "me" from conocermela in the first sentence, and drop the "a" in front of conocerla in the second. In the first you are the implicit subject not an object- no need for me. In the second conocerla is the subject,... - bosquederoble, Mar 19, 2016
it should not have a preposition. Just my non-native thoughts, I could be wrong, so wait for other input. :) - bosquederoble, Mar 19, 2016
