how about "Rakastan sinua"? Why is not "Rakastan sinut? I saw some comments said that "sinua", it's an action that takes place continuously, whereas "sinut" is about an action that is done once, and completed at once." Is it correct? thanks!

Rakastaa is one of the best examples of a "partitive verb", i.e. a verb that is almost always used with the partitive. In theory, it could be used with the accusative: "rakastan sinut rikki" --> "I love you til you are broken", which is a weird example but indicates with the form SINUT that there is some kind of an end result to "rakastaa". Usually, just "rakastaa" doesn't produce an outcome. Another example would be "autan sinua" ("I help you"). Auttaa is usually with the partitive, but as soon as we add some kind of an end result, like "autan sinut autoon", then we use the accusative. It's almost like "autan sinut autoon" means "I'll carry/push/lift you into the car" at the same time. The object case can really twist and turn the meaning and the look of the activity! I hope this helps!
