Is love a choice?? I'd say yes & no. It is a contradiction.

I have no choice but to love certain people in my life, it comes natural, it is not an option. Regardless of their actions, I will still love them. My mother, my child.

I have a choice in loving others such as sisters, brothers. Their actions towards me determine my love for them. Strange but true. Some I have a conditional love for, others I just love unconditionally. Some I chose not to love at all.

I used to think that one would automatically love your blood family but it is not so. I think liking the person is strongly linked to loving the person.

Unconditional love - I have only for my child. In my opinion all other kinds of love is conditional and therefor by choice.
