If the potential White Court vamp is in love with the first person they sleep with, it can kill the inner vamp and leave them human. It's what both Thomas and Harry hoped would happen with Inara, back in Blood Rites.
So Lara couldn't have been in love with the first person she slept with; if that were true, she wouldn't be White Court. She might have fallen in love with someone else afterwards, but by then it would be too late to be anything other than a vampire.

Right. I intended it as "he loved her"- she found out on her wedding night after she'd killed him he died willingly. My bad. Don't type while talking.

Not if the man she loved cheated on her. I believe it requires mutual love, not just from one.

Which was kinda my point. I also feel like we should distinguish between love and "true love." Jim's specifically said that the relationship has to be that of equals for it to be true love. There's probably plenty of couples that aren't "equal," especially historically.

That's another thing. True love has to be mutual.
