Okay, I think we've had a variety of experiences, examples, and opinions. I think seeing someone for the first time and saying that's the guy/gal I'm going to marry does happen. We've heard here that it happens.

But I want to share that one can have the same experience, say the same thing, and even marry that person. But the marriage doesn't work out.

I think in either case, it is not magic at work. But hard work at work. And human choices at work.
