Different strokes. Different people grasp concepts differently.

I can say that every programming language that I grew to love, I liked almost immediately. The ones that make no sense from the get-go, I don't spend much time on.

Surely the second sentence is the reason for the first? If you don't give languages that make a bad first impression a second chance, then you have no idea whether you would have grown to love one of them. (Certainly you aren't obliged to find out, but to regard this as evidence that you wouldn't have liked them I think is reversing causality.)
