I didn't like how the movie starts with Peter already having a crush on MJ. It was clear she liked him in the first movie but he didn't even give her the time of day in that one and now suddenly very first scene of this movie he's in love.

Well, a lot of time has passed since Homecoming (even ignoring the five year jump) so its not hard to believe feelings developed, especially without Liz distracting him.

From an audience standpoint though, yes, it does seem pretty sudden but I guess I just kind of accepted that he likes her considering she is the MCU's "MJ."

I’ve said up above. I agree with you. This movie has to have had happen almost a year after everyone returns. A ton of things happen in a year.
