certain things you give them raise their love points a certain amount. try giving them items everyday that is worth 800 or 500 lp and it wont take as long. if it is a guy from mfomt or fomt then it will take awhile. Also, you can only give one gift a day to raise their lp. if you give them more then one gift in one day, it will only raise up their friend point, not their love points. if you throw things like weeds and stones on the ground, it is 'littering' and takes a couple of love points away. if an animal dies it takes a couple of thousands of love points away, so don't do that either. good luck!
