You can't pretend something as sensuous, dangerous and unpredictable as love can be subordinate to all that 'getting to know eachother' malarkey and your personal value judgements. Sure those factors come into play when selecting a partner, but it's more useful for being good friends than lovers, which is necessary for a marriage, NOT for love.
So my answer is yes.

Didn't he once accidentally sneer his face off?
