The first time I remember seeing my now husband was in high school and I was feeling like an odd ball because all my friends were raving about their crushes and I didn't have one. Well, he walked by me in the hallway one day and I thought, "I could have a crush on him" (because, clearly, I had control over this...). I didn't love him, though, for another 4 or 5 years at least.

That doesn't really answer your question, or if it does, gives it a no. But I think there can be some sort of connection the first time you see a person, but it can be a wide range. It's kind of like meeting someone and knowing that person is going to turn into a good friend.
