I believe she was fascinated and intrigued by Samson; but she never loved him. She deceived him and that is not love.

There are no basis on the Bible to sustaining Delilah loved Samson.
The story of a supposely fallen-in-love-with-him Delilah was a creation of novelist (mostly musical composers and movie makers) to filling up the simple fact that she was a cortesan or a fine first-class whore who Samsom often ****** and was clever and seducing enought to cheat him and make him revealing his secret.

No, she didn't love him. Her aim was simply to find the source of Samson's strength -- that was all she was interested in.

Is your question supposed to be in the form of a complete question? You need some help with grammar.
Also, since you use two proper names in your question, why are they not capitalized? Don't you know the ordinary rules of elementary grammar? Or do you intentionally insult your readers by coming on like an ignorant child?
Why should your readers feel motivated to give any thought to answering you, when you apparently do not give any thought to posing your question?

Can you imagin that a woman who loves you cuts your hair knowing its your source of power? I doubt it.

No! Why else would she cut off his hair, and if she really loved him she wouldn't have set him up to die.

I think that it was more of a ''power play'', once she knew his secret, it was all over.
She then had his hair cut off- per the Bible, she did not do this herself.
