× I love eating chocolate because since I was young I just loved eating any sweets stuff and my favorite has always been chocolate.
✓ I love eating chocolate because since I was young I have just loved eating any sweet stuff and my favorite has always been chocolate.
The phrase 'I just loved' should be in the present perfect tense 'I have just loved' to indicate an action that started in the past and continues to the present. Also, 'sweets stuff' is incorrect; 'sweet stuff' is the correct form as 'sweet' is an adjective describing 'stuff'.
× I It really depends on the day, but I think I at least once in three days.
✓ It really depends on the day, but I think I eat chocolate at least once every three days.
The original sentence has a repeated pronoun 'I It' and lacks a verb in the second clause. Adding 'eat chocolate' clarifies the action. Also, 'at least once in three days' is better expressed as 'at least once every three days' for natural English usage.
× Yes, chocolate has always been my favorite sweet so I would always ask my mother to have chocolate.
✓ Yes, chocolate has always been my favorite sweet, so I would always ask my mother for chocolate.
The phrase 'ask my mother to have chocolate' is incorrect. The correct expression is 'ask my mother for chocolate' because 'ask for' is used when requesting something.
× I think simply because of the taste and also the sugary stuff will release dopamine, so I think it's very addictive too and that's also making people come back to chocolate and craving for it.
✓ I think it's simply because of the taste, and also the sugary stuff releases dopamine, so I think it's very addictive too, and that's also making people come back to chocolate and crave it.
The sentence has several issues: 'will release' is better as 'releases' to indicate a general truth; 'craving for it' should be 'crave it' because 'crave' is a transitive verb and does not require 'for'. Also, adding commas improves readability.
× I like dark chocolate, maybe like 80% cacao. Since I'm getting older I'm having difficulties in eating very sweet stuff so maybe not milk chocolate. So I really prefer dark chocolate.
✓ I like dark chocolate, maybe around 80% cacao. Since I'm getting older, I'm having difficulties eating very sweet stuff, so maybe not milk chocolate. I really prefer dark chocolate.
The phrase 'difficulties in eating' is better as 'difficulties eating' because 'difficulties' is commonly followed directly by the gerund without 'in'. Also, adding commas improves sentence clarity.
× I think so, although I think we should definitely do research on if the people we are giving the gifts like the chocolate or not. But generally I think giving chocolate as a gift is very common.
✓ I think so, although I think we should definitely do research to find out if the people we are giving the gifts to like the chocolate or not. But generally, I think giving chocolate as a gift is very common.
The phrase 'do research on if' is awkward; 'do research to find out if' is clearer. Also, 'giving the gifts like the chocolate' is incorrect; it should be 'giving the gifts to like the chocolate' to indicate the recipients. Adding commas improves readability.
