I was just wondering if people believe in the phenomenon of Love at First Sight. I'd be interested to hear everybody's thoughts on the subject.

Update: Thanks for your answers.
My own personal theory for what it's worth is that people who believe it has happened to them initially are suffering from lust at first sight but quickly come to love the person before the lust stage has worn off.    2 months ago

Everyone agrees lust at first sight is possible, but what about that instant connection? That doesn't come from lust. We all have experienced an instant connection in friendships with coworkers, school mates. So why can't that happen with someone we would have as a partner in a relationship? True, it's not "real" love, but what else should it be called. I think Love-at-first-sight is it's own flavor of love, and not something to be dismissed. It's awesome when it happens!

I agree with you. We are usually attracted to someone who is familiar. And you know the word familiar comes from the word family. So someone that is like someone in your family, which is not always healthy. But also, I know from experience, that first sight of someone you are attracted to only ends in heart break most of the time. I am experiencing falling for someone that doesn't really know I exist, but he is not what I would call love at first sight, just something different, who knows if it will go anywhere, but I will enjoy the ride lol

In the realm of "anything is possible", it is possible. So "yes"

This is something I have become very curious about lately. I'm not sure if I believe in it or not. My thought in regard to not knowing the person well enough is that if it's truely love then you will find a way to deal w/ any differences of opinions you may unearth later on.
Also, I know several older couples who dated for a very short time (when they were young) and got married after only a few months and they have said they knew they were "The One" the first time they were introduced and have been married for 30+ years.

I guess it's possible but people often confuse love and lust. I don't believe you can actually love someone until you see all the flaws in their personality and love those flaws.

I do. It's happened to me twice in my life. The 1st time I was with the person for 3 and 1/2 years. And well the 2nd time I'm currently with him. I have been with him now for 2 months.

I believe in LUST at first sight, not love. If someone thinks they love someone the first minute they see them, either they're shallow or something's wrong there :P

No, I don't believe in love at first sight. I believe that if you think you are in love with someone just by seeing them then that is called LUST! This is just my opinion. You have to get to know the person and see what kind of likes/dislikes that they have.

The stories of love at first sight that I hear of have to do with describing that "Deja-vue" feeling; or they have been friends who lost touch, then they meet up after a while, and they "fall in love at first sight. " Or someone will describe qualities they love about about a person, and have faith in that when they meet that person, something like that. Never experienced it myself.

I do believe in love at first site. It happened to me before lol. When I saw her, I'm like dam! I soon started to like her personality as well. Some things happened that caused us not to be together, but that's ok. I was able to feel love and it felt good.

Anyways there are different types of love:
one love is physically and the other is mentally.
When one loves some one physically "Love at first sight", then one will eventually love some one mentally. Remember, its Looks first then personality. What I mean is when you first see some one, you make sure either he or she is cute physically, then you go and start to get to know them mentally.

This is how and why I believe in Love at first sight.

I'd go beyond lust, and use the term attraction. To say it's only lust at first sight ignores that there might be some non-sexual attractiveness about the person that impresses you. However, there's really no way that you can stretch that to mean love. I think attraction at first sight is what happens, never love.
