Look, this is a grammar entry, ok?
We are going to learn some of the verbs which are followed by -ing or with to.
There is not a specifical rule to learn them what I just can tell you is that there are some verbs which express preference such as:
- Love
- Like
- Don't mind
- Prefer
- Hate
And they are always followed by -ing. The rest of the you have to learn them by heart. I know how difficult it is!!
