I'd say if it's someone they already know, it could work. But for bumping into a stranger and falling in love at first sight, it seems lazy...
I guess it might depend on where someone lives or a person's age, but I don't understand how having a character bump into a stranger and "fall in love" with them at first sight is "lazy" when it happens to some people in real life. I, and other young adults, have experienced having older men who were strangers come up to us and immediately talk about wanting to date us, do things together, etc. Although it felt uncomfortable for most being suddenly asked out like that by a stranger, it still shows that, sometimes, there are real people who feel attracted to others whom they don't know, upon first meeting them.
Once, I also experienced wishing I could've been friends with a college student who I'd seen perform in a college play because I was impressed by his acting.
