Do you feel like instant connections are rare?

Question

-Wildfire-_ · Accepted Answer

Yeah I would think so. The only time I can think of making a instant connection with someone was when I was tired, exhausted, hungry, and homesick because I had been on a 9 hour flight, and then I had to get on another 1 hour flight to get home. Anyways, this random 21 yr old guy next to me just randomly started talking to me and I remember being surprised bc usually people don't make a effort to have a conversation with me, and we ended up talking the entire plane ride about random stuff.

For me at least- incredibly rare. I’ve felt it twice in my life. That instant of knowing something’s different, special and fiery. There has only been once when it was almost like the energy in the room changed. Neither of us could take our eyes off each other, the whole date was just spent in our own bubble. Every date since the connection only got more intense. That’s super rare for me. Usually it takes me awhile to really feel anything for someone.

Instant connections are not rare. Happens all the time. The ones that last for a lifetime, on the other hand, are incredibly rare. Especially nowadays... we can meet people all over the world at one's fingertips. However, we just forget about them the next moment and move onto another person.

So,. maintaining that connection for a long long time is WAY more rare.

Yes, they are very rare! It's an incredible feeling though. There's just something so magical about realizing that you have found a piece of yourself in another person. Even more so, realizing that you want nurture and love that person with everything you have, and then seeing that they want the same for you.

SteveSmith1985 · Answer

No I don't think they're THAT rare. But instant connections that turn into real, deep conections over time... quite rare.

CallMeDave · Answer

I think that depends on what you mean by an instant connection. With my current girlfriend, I felt right away that she seemed like someone I would like to get to know better and be friends with, so there was that connection immediately. I had no idea then that we'd end up in a romantic relationship though. We were friends for a while before realizing how much we liked being with each other and having the relationship become romantic. So that part wasn't instant.

That's how it's been with most of my girlfriends over the years. I felt right away that I liked them, but wasn't sure at what level until I knew them for a while and realized I wanted a romantic relationship and not just a friendship.

I usually can tell pretty quickly whether I like someone enough to want to spend time with them, but it almost always takes longer for me to feel a romantic connection so if you mean an instant romantic connection, then I guess I do feel that those are rare.

WalsallGuy90 · Answer

I wouldn't say so, and that can be both for romantic connections or friendships. One of my closest friends, I met her last year when she was brought to one of my social group evenings by a mutual friend. We got talking and it was as if we'd known each other for years, with how easy conversation flowed and how comfortable we were with each other.

I'll admit in the context of the question, it's rare that I meet someone who I'm that comfortable with so soon but we've stayed close friends ever since, and I've known her for a lot less time than my other best friends.

Nik1hil · Answer

Yes Considering.. Connection are part of communication.. And not everyone is as good at communicating with other humans..

Since, people often lack in vocabulary or practice with words, using words as they are tools to express themselves..

It's rare for an individual to find someone with same level of experience who shares same interest.. Or operate on same way of thinking..

Also.. When when someone achieves a control over words..
Naturally books and other novels begins to taste more delicious than conversation with other humans..
Hence.. Reduction in human interaction also act as a negative factor and reduce such chance

rjroy3 · Answer

No, It's not rare, just not the common outcome. It's rare that the average person finds it tho. There are a large number of people you would have an instant connection if you talked to them. But how many new people are you talking to on a regular basis? If a lot, then you probably connect with people pretty regularly. If you barely talk to 5+ new people you probably think instant connection is a 1 in a million chance and you can't believe it's happened to you even once in your life.
