No, Elphaba wasn't in love with the Wizard. She took advantage of an opportunity to spend some time away from Shiz University. Once in the Emerald City, she became aware of unlikeable aspects of the Wizard's personality. For example, he had her give caged monkeys the ability to fly. Elphaba learned after her spell worked that the Wizard was planning to use them as spies. In contrast, Elphaba was a passionate advocate of animal rights and well-being.
In Wicked there are really not any wicked witches, just misunderstood girls with magical powers. Elphaba is a college student who was born green and was loved by no one. Because of this, she was considered misunderstood. Being misunderstood and unloved gave her a bitter feeling and she became the Wicked Witch of the West. The Wicked Witch of the East is Elphaba's younger sister who was once paralyzed. Her name is Nessarose. She becomes wicked in an act of selfishness in trying to save her boyfriend from death. None of the typical witches are wicked. The wicked witch of the west is Elphaba is just missunderstood and that's what the whole musical is about. Then there is Nessarose who is Elphaba's sister but she is seen as the wicked witch of the east because she made a selfish descision to keep her love. Then of course there is Glinda, who isn't really Wicked but very selfish sometimes and a little bit self-centered.

Elphaba Thropp is not wicked in "Wicked."Instead, it is Elphaba's reputation that becomes wicked. The reason lies in the rumors spread against her by such powerful enemies as the Wizard and Madame Morrible. Some people believe the lies and rumors just because Elphaba is quite different with her green skin. Others fear the consequences if they try to defend her or put a stop to the character defamation.

Elphaba Thropp is thought to be wicked in the book "Wicked" by Gregory Maguire (b. June 9, 1954).Specifically, Elphaba is born with green skin and is not her mother's favorite child. She is mistreated and misunderstood throughout life. As is the case with many people, Elphaba does likeable things - such as taking care of her younger sister Nessarose - and unlikeable things. It is the latter that people choose to remember and that influence Elphaba's overall undeserved reputation as the Wicked Witch of the West.
In the beginning of wicked Elphaba is said the be 16 years old.
