That's true. A simile compares things with like or as while a metaphor does not. An example would be something like "Her eyes were the sea and I was drowning." (hey that's actually pretty good I just made that up lol) If it was a similie it would say "Her eyes were like the sea" or "Her eyes were as blue as the sea"
