According to John B. Watson, you learn to love another by pairing stroking and cuddling with the person doing the stroking and cuddling. This is known as classical conditioning, where a previously neutral stimulus (the person) becomes associated with a pleasurable experience (stroking and cuddling), ultimately resulting in a positive emotional response (love).
