French people value the distinction between 'aimer' and 'aimer bien' to avoid confusion in romantic contexts. In Quebec, the usage is similar, but sometimes 'aimer' is used more freely for things. Swiss French speakers are very precise and use 'aimer bien' consistently for casual preferences.
The 'Bien' Rule
Always add 'bien' when talking about objects to sound natural.
