    Hello,
    Could you help me please?
    Thanks for any reply.

    Why Past Participle is used here ? Please help.
    4. You look the sort of girl that's mighty often getting fallen (to fall) in love with!

    Hello
    You look the sort of girl that's mighty often getting fallen (to fall) in love with!

    Your sentence uses a passive voice :
    You seem to be the type of girl who is often kissed/wooed/pursued/annoyed/pestered/annoyed/abused/made fun of/...
    You seem to be the type of girl who is often getting kissed/wooed/pursued/annoyed/pestered/...
    You seem to be the type of girl who is often getting fallen in love with (a very clumsy pattern in my view).
    It would have been lighter to say :
    You look the sort of girl boys often fall in love with.
    But I suppose it is a sentence from a test.
