si "Tom ha amado a Mary por mucho tiempo", la ama ahora?
I am not a native speaker of Spanish, but I remember learning that constructions like "I have worked there for 1 year" are usually translated into Spanish using the Present Simple tense: "Trabajo aqui hace 1 an~o".

no hay problema, son lo mismo,
el único problema es cuando se usa el pretérito imperfecto; en ese caso, sí que implica un cambió; en este no.
