The human mind is fragile. Given the right stimuli it can be made to do or believe anything.

This goes for everything, not simply love.

I am not an expert on the subject by far, but I have studied a bit about the human psyche and how the brain works.

For instance, putting a phrase similar to "Get out the tissues, cos you're gonna be spanking it to this!" in a tour or gellery page will not work for the average surfer. They like to think they are annonymous, and if they think for an instance that you know they will be rubbing one out, they'll most likely be gone. For people more net-savvy, this phrase doesn't scare them. They know, no matter how much you know about their location/ip address etc, there is still a level of annonimity.

Knowing things like this is great for marketing. And getting someone to fall in love with you.

I don't condone it, but manipulation can be a great marketing tool.
