Keepitsimple That's not something I said. But yeah, I don't know this persons' situation. But people that really want something or long for something, sometimes really get their hopes up and take what is in front of them as some sort of guarantee to fill in the longing they have. To kinda fill in the void that they are experiencing. It can be a beautifull thing if it works out, it can be quite crushing if it's not. I think it's a really human thing to do.
There are of course also other reasons. Like people that get smitten and entranced by looks, and suddenly take attractions to aesthics to the same level as liking someones personality. That happens too. I sometimes wonder when my nephew is going to wake up one day and find out that the got married to a pair of boobs. Looking at some of his conversations about his wife over the course of the years, I think he's slowly getting to the point where he's finding out that tits don't make the person. So that happens too, and that is also not just a male thing. Just look at stories of girls that believe the jock they found is the right person for them, only to get to know him over time and have these early assessments crushed.
But in both examples, it's still fair to say that people can experience deep feelings towards someone from the first moment they see eachother. Only time and getting to know eachother teaches you if these things hold up.
