Joss himself
has proclaimed it (and thus it must be so): Despite what we've all believed lo these many months Veronica Mars isn't Buffy (bemoans loss of

I think they just said that love was missing from the equation, not necessarily mutual love. I guess that's what that statement would apply, love from both sides. But from S1, it's obvious that Sharon was not supposed to feel about Helo that way. When she reported back to Six and... that other dude after sleeping with Helo for the first time, they talk about how she's turning and becoming more like "them."
This is from wisteria_'s post about the podcast:
RM: "The Cylons believed that God is love, and without love, they could not reproduce... So they put Helo in a position to fall for Sharon in order for that to happen. The amazing thing is that Sharon fell for Helo, and she turned on her own people out of love. That's something the Cylons didn't anticipate... There is something called love, and it is stronger than science." (I'm paraphrasing in a big way.)
Aw, man, I totally forgot they were jumping to Kobol. I thought on the previews for next week, Boomer and Helo were on Galactica, but I guess I was wrong.

So he was talking about both of them, but that doesn't mean Sharon hasn't fibbed about it. My thinking on season 1 isn't that the Cylons disapprove of the "falling in love" aspect, but that they didn't think it could ever make her turn her back on her own race. It's like they don't really get it.
