What does "好きになってあげるわよ" means?


I know that あげる is to give. But I find it weird to interpret it as, I have
come to love you and I'm giving it to you. But at the same it seems to also
make some sense. Is my understanding of the sentence correct?




If I were a Japanese-learner, I probably would have difficulty understanding
this sentence, too.

It is a girl's somewhat **_condescending_** (but still lighthearted) way of
saying " **I will be in love with you**." It is almost like saying that you
are doing the guy a favor. It implies something like " **I will love you more
for your sake than for my own**."

It is the kind of phrase that you hear more often in fiction than in real
life.
