    Do you? I've heard sooo many different opinions, some say that theres "one person" out there for everyone, and when you see them, then you just kinda know. Others say you can't fall in love with someone before you even meet or talk to them.

    Idk, i've always believed in love at first site, but lately..i'm just not so sure.

    Opinions?

    No, I do not believe in love at first sight. Infatuation, yes. Lust, yes. True love? Nope. I believe true love takes time.

    it depends. there is the possibility of having that connection with someone instantly but then again it can always be categorized as lust. so who knows, but love is love. its both amazing and terrible as a feeling. but we all want it.

    I dont know guys, I fell in love with morphine the first time I met her. And beer. :tongue:
    But as for people, no I guess it takes time to know what love is all about. And I think initially there are more than one person who could be soulmate, but when you find one they can be the one forever. I dont know. Who really does? Everyone is different.

    I dont think there could be love at first sight becuase you have to know someone before you can say you love them and mean it.

    I think love can lead from mutual infatuation at first sight, surely

    'love at first sight' is a tricky one though
    on one hand, to truly love someone you have to have some time to connect with them
    on the other hand, a dramatic romantic can easily make love in their own mind, life in the eye of the beholder so to speak

    Love at first sight is the love of form(s) not of any particular individual.

    I don't even remember the first site I visited, so I doubt I really loved it.

    of course no
    passion, interest...whatever
    love is not so simple
    it's deep
    it takes time

    Nah, there isn't any such thing as "love at first sight". That's just a bullshit term they coined for movies and Hallmark cards. I believe in attraction at first sight, but true love takes time and experience. You can see someone but know nothing about them. Love at first sight is just falling in love with appearance; isn't love supposed to transcend looks? Love is sharing secrets and opinions and accepting someone for all their flaws, even loving them for those flaws. Love is a glance that says all you need to know. Love is being able to have a whole conversation without even opening your mouth. Love is much more than just appearance based.

    It's not how love looks, it's how love thinks.
