No. You can't love somebody too much.
But, it's more important to love yourself as much.
Don't confuse love with attention, time spent together, money spent on your or your significant other, etc.
Love is something you do, it's not an emotion, it's a decision you make about how you're going to treat another person and make yourself vulnerable to them.
Emotions happen. Love is a continual work in progress.

I don't think so. You can love someone that they get a bit annoyed with you because you display your affection for them to often. But I don't believe there is such a thing as too much love.

Yes.
Let me explain, See when we love , truly love we do it mind, body and soul.
Meaning we love others as we love ourselves.
If we love each other we want what is best,for one another, we want Joy, freedom, happiness, etc.
Some people love selfishly, and it turns into a control , or manipulation. You know if you are being loved too much, because although you may return the feeling you begin to feel , trapped , restless, controlled, and begin to feel bitter, and resentful.
You will know if you are doing this if the person you love complains about it.
this applies to all relationships, Parent /child, siblings, friends, or Intimate relationships.
If you are the one feeling this way talk to the other and communicate gently but openly about your feelings.
If your the one making someone feel this way , again , open lines of communication, and listen , truly listen to what the other had to say.
Love trusts, and in that trust there is freedom, and like a boomerang if the love is real it just comes back.

No such thing. There is, however, such a thing as an unhealthy obsession. That has more to do with control than emotion.

There is NO WAY a person can 'love' another 'too much.' A person can become 'obsessed' with someone and SAY that they are 'in love with' that person, but that is NOT 'love.' True love is UNCONDITIONAL love ... and you may want to 'be with' this person, but you don't have to ... you have COMPLETE TRUST that they will do 'what is right' for them, and that is 'good enough' for you. Time spent together is wonderful, but it's not necessary. There is much confusion over this, because there are many different KINDS of love, and some people may 'say' the LOVE someone, when they are only 'possessive' or 'obsessive' of them. THAT IS NOT LOVE.

Love is an intense feeling of affection related to a sense of strong loyalty or profound oneness.[1] The meaning of love varies relative to context. Romantic love is seen as an ineffable feeling of intense attraction shared in passionate or intimate attraction and intimate interpersonal and sexual relationships.[2] Though often linked to personal relations, love is often given a broader signification, a love of humanity, of nature, with life itself, or a oneness with the Universe, a universal love. Love can also be construed as platonic love,[3] religious love,[4] familial love, and, more casually, great affection for anything considered strongly pleasurable, desirable, or preferred, to include activities and foods.[5][2] This diverse range of meanings in the singular word love is often contrasted with the plurality of Greek words for love, reflecting the concept's depth, versatility, and complexity.

I think there is a fine line between loving too much and real obsession. I believe that there is no greater joy than to love and be loved. For me I wish I had experienced that about the people in my life. I was too worried about getting my feelings hurt so held my feelings close.

Yes. Loving someone more than you love yourself is typically a mistake that will have disastrous consequences. (I know this from personal experience.) You think it'll be interpreted as self-sacrifice, but the recipient of the love doesn't think it through to that extent; instead they take you for granted until they ultimately lose all respect for you. This is undestandable when you consider that people rarely value things that are handed to them, but they treasure things they have to work for...if that's true in general, it's doubly true in love.

I don't think you could love someone too much. Some people mistake love for infatuation and then they end up getting obsessed with the person. Obsessions aren't healthy. As long as you're not stalking someone, then you're fine

Yes as if you can show too much love at a time or don't show love as much too much is understandable and even though someone shows too much love it might be an urge of excitement or love or really just plain sex really her wants to do you
