Can you purposefully fall in love?

I think that is the case for all cases of falling in love. It's always an accident.

Yeah you can. Being very good friends with the opposite sex sometimes leads to falling in love accidently although most of the time the he/she maybe taken already.

Absolutely. In fact, it would be very hard to DELIBERATELY fall in love. Let's think of the scenario here for that - okay I"m off to a very nice pub and I will deliberately fall in love with a person I meet. Sounds stupid? okay. So, here's another scenario: Okay, I'm off to the coffee shop, supermarket, pub, etc, and I will drink coffee, shop, have a beer, etc. If in the process I meet someone, well that would be great. And so it might. And it would be accidental, wouldn't it? And such is life.

If 20 percent of all marriages are good marriages and 10 percent of all marriages are great marriages. Then I would speculate that perhaps 2 percent of all marriages are accidental and involve true love. Another high percentage of marriages are not as loving as the top 20 percent. So the assumption is that there is a falling in love and that it is relatively accidental. So I would speculate maybe 2 percent of cases of marriage.

I think you can.
I don't know if that's bad. It could be. It could be good.
It depends on who you fall in love with. When you fall in love you should love with your brain as well as your heart.
I didn't do that in my first marriage, and I think it is fair to say I fell in love by accident that time. Sadly it didn't last as long as I would have liked.

For me, love means loving someone in my whole life, if i am easily falling in love in anyone accidently, that mean they are not my love at all......

That's how it happens in the great majority of cases. Imagine setting out to intentionally fall in love.

Yes.
I didn't want to meet my husband, but fate warranted it.
I didn't want to fall in love with another musician, but he charmed me so!
Don't consider it an accident. Consider it an act of God's grace that you were at the place he put you when you needed to be there.
Or consider John Lennon's words, "There's nowhere you can be that you weren't meant to be".
