About loving and being loved
Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) said: “A person cannot be a perfect Muslim unless he desires for his brother (in Faith) that which he desires for himself.”
(Bukhari & Muslim)
Abu Musa al-Ash‘ari (may Allah be pleased with him), relates that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him) said: “The bonds (of brotherhood) between Muslims are like parts of a house; one part strengthens and holds another”. He crossed the fingers of one hand between those of the other (to illustrate the point).
(Bukhari & Muslim)
Nu‘man bin Bashir (may Allah be pleased with him), relates that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him), said: “The Muslims, in their mutual love, kindness and compassion are like the human body: when one of its parts is in agony, the entire body feels the pain, both in sleeplessness and fever”.
(Bukhari & Muslim)

Assalamualaikum Sis Nadia.
Yes, as Muslim, we should love each other sincerely. Love as in keeping each other on the straight path, reminding each other to do good in everything we do and avoiding bad deeds and so on. When we love and being love by others our self-esteem, confidence in our deen, our life insyaallah would be more meaningful.
Just my 2 cents.
