Why didn't God 'make' us love?
For love to exist, you must have a choice---and for choice to exist there have to be consequences. If there aren't any consequences or differences then choice doesn't exist and if there's no choice, there's no love. The free will to make choices is what makes us capable of responding to God, and thus, capable of a personal and loving relationship with him.

God didn't bring evil and suffering into the world, his creatures did. If God is omnipotent, and has all this power, why couldn't he make us free creatures and still prevent the pain somehow?
