Smart Humanism"In time she came to love him."

It is the change of her feelings toward him from a point of hatred, dislike, or ambivalence to love.
It takes a long time.

eg.

At first, she hated him violently. After a week, she just hated him. After a month or two, she became aware of some of his good aspects, and didn't hate him, but felt neutral. After six months, she liked him a little bit. After a year, she liked him a lot. In time (ex. ten years), she came to love him.
