Love- as a special case of idealization of the opposite sex? and got a better answer

Yes, it's often idealization. You think one thing about a person, but it turns out to be something else?

Philosophy?

There's something to that, but not really. I wouldn't call it idealization exactly, but rather an attempt to idealize the person you care about to some kind of ideal instilled in your childhood. But the thought is really beautiful.
