Do you believe in Love at first sight?

I want to hear love at first sight stories. How long did you date? Are you still dating? What did you notice first about this person/what attracted you?

 

i've been extremely physically attracted to people the first time i saw them, but it would be pretty retarded to fall in love with someone before i've even spoken with them.

 

Attraction, yes. Love, no.

 

yes, because i fell in love with the pain in the ass. if instant endearment did not exist, i would have fallen in love with one someone much nicer.

there was just this feeling the day i met her - i remember it like yesterday and i knew i had given away a part of myself even before i opened my mouth.

i think of it more of love not yet nurtured, but still - there is something of love at first sight, at least something beyond attraction.

 

No.

I met my girl over the Internet, sort've. I worked at a grocer and had her in my line a few times, but didn't take notice then. But she added me on myspace and we started talking on the phone.

One time I saw her shopping from way down at the end of the store and she did this cute little shy wave and my heart melted.

We've been together for 4 1/2 years now and it only get better; but it took a long time for our love to develop and it is doing so even now.

Love is a bond that requires both chemistry and devotion to be nourished; not some magical emotion of destiny.

The concept of love at first sight is insulting to relationships.

 

Exactly. You can't love someone without knowing their personality as well. And it is impossible to know what someone is like as a person just by looking at them. I've been called a beautiful person many times, even though I'm ugly as sin in terms of my physical appearance. And some people who are very phsycially beautiful are not very nice people personality wise.

I think people who have been in very long term relationships say they believe in love at first sight, because they are still with the person after a lot of years. But that is just being self-delusional. It's impossible to truly be in love with a person just based on their physical appearance alone, so no I don't believe in love at first sight. You'd have to be extremely shallow as a person to be able to say you loved someone based on their looks only.

 

My story is going to sound lame/nerdy/or dorky. I was 18 and like many 18 year old males, I played World of Warcraft. I met a girl who amazed me and was just like me and within 2 days I told her I was going to marry her. 2 months later I flew out to where she lived. I won't ever forget seeing her, pacing back and forth nervously, her hair slightly in front of her eyes as she looked up and saw me and said my name questioningly. That was the happiest day of my life. I flew out again for Christmas break, and again for every other break I had for the rest of my senior year of high school. That year I looked at colleges near her and I went to a university just 45 min drive away from her, almost to our 5th anniversary now and we are once again separated by a 5 hr plane ride due to me being in grad school for the next 3 years, but I will continue to see her every break I get including summers now. Skype is a wonderful thing. Here's the kicker, she's the one who inspired me to become a couples counselor and sex therapist because I want everyone to experience the love and compassion that we share. So I don't know if you'd consider that love at first site, but to me it felt like it because it was so quick that I knew I was going to marry her.

 

No.

Do you believe in Love at first sight?

"Yes I certain it happens all the time"

I know of a few school romances still going strong - although also some disasters!

:iagree:
= a valid point however, - Attraction is an Easy thing to find an instant Desire.
Longevity comes with a balance of give and take
Still, For those to whom find Love = Good on you, May Romances Blossom

 

I believe you can feel something special at first sight. A connection and chemistry. I don't know if its love without getting to know who they really are but I think there are certain times that you meet someone and know the instant you say hello that your life will never be the same without them. I think that can happen with significant others as well as friends. I have a few friends that the second I met them I knew we would be close friends for the rest of our lives.

 

I define "Love at first sight" as something within an instant, meaning you see something / someone and fall instantly in love with it. I think love at first sight only exist in Disney cartoons.

In the real world I only believe in love at first sight when it comes to seeing a baby kitten or puppy, or some pet animal which you just instantly fall in love with and have to have, or a parent laying eyes on their child for the first time. It's "Love at first sight", however it is in the genuine sense, not the romantic sense, which is how most everyone associates the phrase with

Far as "Falling in Love with at first sight" in terms of romantically, it doesn't exist and anyone saying differently is lying or totally kidding themselves. If a guy sees a beautiful woman or a girl sees a handsome man, it isn't love at first sight, it's lust at first site hands down.

Now the only situation in real life where I wonder if it could exist, but I've never gone through it, nor hope I ever do is if you save someone, someone saves you, or you witness first hand someone save another human being from certain sudden death. At the moment this happens and you look at them and realize they saved your life or someone else's life and they are alive for that very reason. In that instant I would argue that the feelings are of genuine love for a person you just met. Now this may sound a bit twisted and it could wear off 10 seconds later, but the euphoric "drunk like" feeling of love at first sight could exist in this type of a situation.

 

I believe in a transcendental knowing when you see someone. Love is cosmic; one can recognize a future wife or husband at first sight.
