Do we choose to love or love just happens naturally?

Sometimes we do and sometimes there are situations we just don't have control over. . . . i guess

you choose to love, but sometimes it happens naturally (true love).

I think i agree with you on this. But all in all, love is a choice, a decision we have to make. You still need to decide if you will heed your feelings or not.

A natural LOVE always occur unconciously while materialistic LOVE is NOT. cos the former is (True 'n' genieune) while the later is fake

Yeah right.a natural love is so not an unconscious emotion.Luv aint blind ppl,it can see very clearly.Its not an unconscious emotion;on the contrary its a conscious emotion.the decision to luv or not to luv is a conscious one.Its a logical and concise emotion.dats why u shld luv wit ur head and not ur hrt,because wen ur hrt takes over completely,u`re puttin urself in a very vulnerable situation.so yeah,love is a conscious emotion.

The last poster got it right! Love is a deliberate act, a conscious decision.

I dont see love as being an unconscious feeling.

In life we are always armed with choices.

you choose to love or choose not to love. At the end of the day, it is a conscious decision that u make.

Love exist in the subconscious, it is not something you do consciously. You just feel it. so is lust and infatuation. There is only one acid test to differentiate between these trio. And That is fond is this very common peotry

Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends, 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

You don't practice it, it comes to you naturally. Its only if you have the mind of Christ.

love is a conscious feeling that flows from the depths of the soul.it awaken your senses to see things others will naturally not see in a person you are with.love ordinary can be confused with lust atimes, for instance the 3 lettered word 'SEX'.
But we forget too quickly that a person may love you and not want to have sex with you, and maybe not love you and want to have sex with you.there have been instances where someone may not be able to decipher the real thing they are feeling for a person, thinking its love.
love is very concious thats why it aint blind, it wear googles and is crystal clear!!!
but the big question is, does it exist?? if it does,good for the ones who have being hit by cupid's arrow, because i no
