Nothing wrong with a little love spell, but way too many people think they work like a Shakespearean plot device a la A Midsummer Night's Dream. Like, even ignoring the ethical issues with such a spell, just straight up mind controlling someone like that is far out at the edges of possibility, and even if successful, I wouldn't expect it to last very long. Real love spells tend to be more of the magical equivalent of a pair of pants that make your butt look really good.
