If there was a concept of hate at first site people would say that’s ridiculous. Love at first site is equally ridiculous

Dopamine, which runs the reward pathways in our brain, is great in moderate doses, helping us enjoy food, exciting events, and relationships. However, we can push the dopamine pathway too far when we become addicted to food or drugs. Similarly, too much dopamine in a relationship can underlie unhealthy emotional dependence on our partners.
And while healthy levels of oxytocin help us bond and feel warm and fuzzy towards our companions, elevated oxytocin can also fuel prejudice.

Chemically racism and hatred are not the same, so yes you are correct.

I don't know if that's love per se but I definitely believe in stumbling upon someone that seems to fit all your criteria (physical and mental), and realizing it within the first 30 secs.

Hard to come up with a solid definition of love anyways.

The 🏝️ Of Relevancy
It depends on the individual and or situation that will or won't arise...I have been smitten, crush, by many demure, easy on the eyes, soft spoken women before but realized Im tripping...kinda like the Jay Z Excuse me miss song... being extra sprung and ain't even had a tryst let alone a kiss with the woman you fancy

No.

Real love isn't the same as infatuation/lust/instant chemistry. It involves comittment, sacrifice, and selflessness which aren't qualities you can see in someone just by looking at their outer appearance.

ya I can see someone fitting your physical criteria to a tee to the point of “falling in love” with who they think that person is but they don’t actually know

If you discover one day that someone you have loved for years lives a double life, and is in reality a totally different person than the one you thought they were...

Have not been in love for years still? Were your feelings not real somehow?

if anything that supports the notion that “truly knowing” someone is relevant to love and not the reverse imo bcuz now that you truly know her (and are aware of said double life) do you still love her? bcuz if not then yes those old feelings basically become invalidated to a degree
