We don't fall straight in love; we vaguely saunter downwards, in a crooked path.
The main thing is, however, none of the above. It is rather how very many people don't wish to take a peek at the looking glass country, where life is beautiful, just as it is back home.
The glitch? The afore mentioned "crooked pathway" lies right within the looking glass country. So.., since very many people don't wish to take a peek, they all end up completely oblivious about its existence.
They only see the uhm... straight line, and never ever know of a teeniest, tiniest hint, about the other path(s).
Which makes a Jabberwocky sad enough to befriend a Mock Turtle; where we will meet them, mourning together on the sea shore...
Yes.
We are all mad here.
