I'd never thought about the relationship there being sudden. I suppose that it could be interpretted that way.
The best definition would be that in Lothorien Gimli found a sudden "appreciation/acceptance" of the Elvish race. The wall of emnity between the two members of fellowship would probably have fallen when Gimli sees Galadriel.
