What makes us fall in love

warning; I'm a bit of a scatterbrain, so the descriptions I write, trying to explain myself, are probably way harder to read than my comics...
it's very silly, but I sometimes do actually worry that there might be people out there missing out on some great relationships because they just don't consider it an option or because they simply aren't able to for any reason (there's a lot).
hope this doesn't come off as me trying to promote pansexuality or anything, most people just aren't attracted to people with certain genders and I wouldn't try to change that for them.
also, I don't mean romantic (and sexual) love/relationships only (tho, it ís what sparked this comic idea), friendship too.
in lots of societies, friendship between people from different race, gender, religion, sexuality, age, etc etc are uncommon, you just don't see it as a ready option.
which is too bad. maybe that weirdo from a totally different social group would make a great friend!
I added the two little bonus comics because...
I said I worried about people missing out on love because their romantic/sexual attraction doesn't allow them to be attracted to that person who'd be suitable, character-wise. but.. sexuality may be fluid, so even two hetero girls could end up falling in love. or getting into a queer platonic relationship.
also, I worried a bit that my comic might've seemed directed too much on romantic love, so I wanted to include aromantics in it in a fun way. I don't know much about it, so I hope it doesn't seem to generalise or is just plain wrong. (I know they cóúld become a couple, but they don't have to want that so yeah..).
Anyway, that was it, I hope I didn't come off as patronising. ..worrying fór others. I just want everyone to find some happiness and wished these outward traits, which we didn't choose, wouldn't so often be obstructions.
(also for me, I'm human too, I probably also, subconsciously, don't act in accordance with these ideals.)

I saw my girlfriend once before I knew here and offered her a drink at a park festival kind of thing. Added her on facebook and only really started talking to her month's later.
I fell in love with her. Talking to her daily. And the first time I saw her was months later when I went over and told her I loved her.
And it was only a good half month later someone told me that I was really lucky with such a beautiful girlfriend. And I looked at her pictures and only then realised how beautiful she was outside too.
I was so focused on her inner beauty that I did not see it in her appearance. Is that not true love?
