    Grammer Question

    I am a person that love family gatherings and love to make good friends vs. I am a person that loves family gatherings and loves to make good friends. What is the difference between these sentences?

    Because "person" is singular, it should use the singular "loves." The word "love" is plural and should only be used with a plural subject or object (in this case, it would be "We are people that love...").

    Agreed. Also, use 'who' instead of 'that'.
