Is it normal to fall in love with someone you've only met once?

I'm 26 and I'm in love with my 43 year old psychiatrist we're both girls. I have leafed through almost everything regarding this and it points to something called transference but I don't think it's that at all because I have only seen her once and I refuse to see her again like this. but ever since I met her I have become progessively more productive and I just can't stop thinking about her. and also, I have always been straight, i have never been attracted to women, and I actually had a boyfriend at that time. what do I do? I kind of think it's not normal but it's just there.

    You're not in love with her, you're obsessed with her. I'd say go get help but that obviously didn't work out last time

    I dont think you've fallen in love with her more "Fell in lust". It could be either mentally or physically but probably she get some space away from here. Or maybe just you're having a lesbian moment?....all guys have one haha.

    First time with a mental help professional, eh?

    Haha, sorry.

    Yes, it is normal!
    You're not in love, though, dear. We don't love what we don't know. We become attracted.
    Here's the kicker, you're likely not attracted to her but rather to what she represents.
    Helping others find & tackle the route of what's not right & wholesome in their lives is her job. That's the only reason you've so much seen her face & know her name!
    How could you not be attracted to her?
    Her sole purpose in your life is to help you live it as emotionally healthily as possible.
