Would you agree with me if i said that love is a choice? Because most people say that love is plainly feelings, or passion. But what about the other side of that? Isn't love also a choice? You have the chance to choose whether you'll love someone or not, you also have the chance to choose whether to give in or not.
What are your opinions about it?

Love would always be there. If you were given a chance to love, you have a choice whether to follow your heart or not. I would disagree that love is plainly feelings or passion, that is somehow a the needy feeling of a person. This needy feeling has limits and conditions. Love, on the other hand, is unconditional. And every person has a choice whether to open his or her heart for that unconditional love.

Yes,its is true. Love is always there. Even if you don't want it or expect it,love is always in our lives. But I think,we have to be smart with falling in love or giving our love to someone. I mean,love is really unconditional,but I think we have to think of not to fall in love with the wrong person. If we are to love someone,of course we want to give them everything that we can. Make them feel loved and special. And it will hurting for us to find out that we ended up loving the wrong person who cant even at least gives back the favor of caring for us. And there comes in the love and the unconditional love that we should give to the person/partner that we have or wants to have us right now.

Yes it is a choice and a decision as well. This is true when we mature. . . We weigh things as we get older. We don't just go with the feeling anymore.

Well i guess love could be a choice. But there are some feelings that we cant choose to feel.
I think that love isnt a choice, but chosing if you want or not to continue loving could be.
I am not sure if you understand my logic, i tend to say things that dont really make sense. I tried =)

love is not a choice but what is a choice is to be or not with the person. bcs we cant say ohh i will love this guy. the feeling just happen. there are those that are in love and are not together but we cant say ohh i wont love this guy and will love this one. like those that marry someone but love other. they chose to be with that person but love other one. feelings are not chosen what is chosen if we will or not share it^^

I think you're right. Love isn't just about feelings. Sometimes,people end up with someone that they dont really love or like at first,but eventually as time passed by. They've learned to love that person.

yes, you are correct. Basically the nature of Love is choice. Sincerity in love only exist when the choice has been found
