Now, old Mrs. Weil, third grade teacher, taught us firmly in 1963:

"Children, you cannot 'love' spaghetti. You can =like= spaghetti,
but because spaghetti cannot love =you=, you can only like the food.

'Love' is to be used only for talking of people, not about things.

You cannot 'love' to roller skate. You can, however, 'love' your sister.

Is that clear, now?"

You have never owned a boat. There is a reason why they are called "she"...
 
KRS1 taught me the same thing as your third grade teacher..
