She fell in love with him pre-Crisis, when he was a genuinely caring, generous man with a powerful spark of humor and an occasional almost boyish sense of fun that led him to slide down banisters with a smile on his face in the middle of chasing badguys.

Bruce/Selina, like the mentally stable, happy, properly-raised Dick Grayson and the Babs Gordon who respects and loves her onetime mentor, is an artifact of a happier time, preserved into a new ill-fitting context by momentum, selective retcon, and the stubborn refusal of a small subset of fans and writers to accept the douchebag Batgod as the true face of their onetime hero.
