Do you believe in love at first sight?

[SashaHa]

Pls give a reason c:

Yes

No

[caring__1]

People who believe in love at first sight don't really know what love is. Love is something that builds as two people choose to create and nurture a relationship. It's the depth that develops, not the superficial. If it's instantaneous, then it's based solely on physical appearance, and that won't hold a relationship together over time.

Quality relationships prioritize making sure both always feel safe, secure and special. How can anyone feel safe, secure and special the first time you see someone? Yes, we can be drawn to a person when we first meet. We see qualities that impress us, so we're drawn in. I'm sure you've heard of the beautiful woman who opened her mouth and instantly turned ugly. Never assume infatuation has anything to do with what follows. I see limerence mentioned here. Actually limerence involves an all-consuming passion and intrusive thoughts, which doesn't happen instantaneously.

Well, I’m going to have to strongly disagree, since I married my husband after nearly two months of meeting him. That was almost 11 years ago. Sure, we’ve built a lasting marriage over time, but we didn’t get married based on appearances. I knew that night I was going to marry him. I called my mom to tell her I just met my husband. Sure, she may have thought I was crazy. I seen our life together; that night. I don’t know how else to explain it. I’m sure we’re the exception and not the rule, but that isn’t to say it simply can’t happen. Our marriage has long surpassed some of our friends and families marriages, who were together for years, and divorced. So, I don’t really believe time is the deciding factor. We are still madly in love. Our marriage has been blessed, in all aspects. Our home, our careers, our family. Truly blessed. And it happened over a chance meeting. Somewhere I was never supposed to be that night. So let me assure you, it can and does happen.

@veronicasue2 I'm not saying it never happens. I've just noticed how unlikely it is to work out that way. You can also put a dollar into a slot machine and become an instant millionaire, but what's the likelihood of that happening? Don't encourage people to place bets on unlikely results.

[zeitgeist057]

Yes, or rather, the potential is there for the relationship right from the first moment.

"True" love requires knowledge, and you don't really know anything about someone the first moment you lay eyes on them. But an amazing connection can be had and built upon, nonetheless. Just from the first impression, visual, pheromones, chemistry, the feeling in your heart. From there it can grow, having a boost of a start.

It's a beautiful thing, and I know I have many people I've loved for a long time and continue to love, whom I had a good feeling about from the first moment.

[ShellyB]

I voted no but I was being literal. I do believe love can happen when you first meet somebody but not literally at the first sight of them. Although I have had three guys claim they fell in love with me at first sight, I don't really believe that. I think it is just something people say.

For myself I can't feel love for a guy until I have a sense of what kind of person he is and that is v. difficult maybe impossible just by seeing him for a few seconds, I might get a good feeling about him at first sight but I wouldn't say love. JMO maybe I am being persnickety!

[melanieeeB]

How can you fall in love without even knowing them?

I believe in attraction and chemistry at first sight but if that is developing to love depends on the person.
Not everyone that you find interesting or captivating from the first sight, is going to be a good person or worth it.

[JanaTalks]

I voted yes because while it's very uncommon (especially when it's mutual), its something only time will tell. You can't tell right off the first months or years. Love at first sight can really just be infatuation/limerence since it is based off looks and appeal and having some kind of perceived alluring trait.

You'll only be able to tell retrospectively if it was love or infatuation/limerence.

[sheenagwapa]

i used to but not anymore... get to know the person first very well before declaring you love for duch person. because done people are juat not worth it. even a single tear they are not eorth it



adter Jesuw i fight for true live. there are people who keep askinh for forgiveness which i did but they seem to easily forget how they misconstrued me and bqck to hurtinh me again


i hope he will find the best girl that he is lookinh for.

It's certainly possible to fall in love at first sight—but there's a catch. You need to be able to take the time after that first meeting to really get to know each other, explains Dubrow. It's only then that you can figure out if it's a good match or not

[MementoMori777]

Depends what you mean at first sight, I know If I get good vibes off stone I can imagine a future together but I wouldn't say that's love, at first sight, more like known potential at first sight and not even sight, more of at first meet

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

No…

That’s the silliest thing I’ve heard.

How can you love someone if you don’t know her inside and out, if you haven’t seen him at his worst and still loved him there.

[tesniolite]

i believe u can think u love somebody at first sight and then grow to love them but whenever I've loved somebody at first sight in about a week i stop really caring

[Static_In_The_Attic]

I believe in lust at first sight & love comes after.

[JanaTalks]

this. Lust/Infatuation/Limerence at first sight.

[Static_In_The_Attic]

@JanaTalks Jenna Talks & Static listens & I like your answer better.

[SAMI_DABBAB]

Yes and you can fall in love multiple times, so loving in first sight exists and is very common, you see something you really like which matches your definition of perfect, you'll love it and the same easily applies to people

[Legendarylegacy13]

I pick yes because it exists. Because you can know that you love a person and recognize how you feel about them as soon as you see each other. Just because it's love at first sight does not mean get married the same day.

[OfMiceandMen]

No I do not believe in love at first sight because I had been disappointed in the past when I got to know the girl (s).

[BCA6010]

"Love at first sight" is actually lust. It can become love, but not without actually getting to know them.

[Adam1978]

I believe in attraction at first sight, which could turn into mutual love if no obstructions are placed in it's way.

[JDAC092299]

No but I believe in chemistry at first couple of interactions, usually both people involved know if they have a shot with someone or not by the first few interactions in my experience

[exitseven]

Yes, the first time I saw my wife with her cutoff blue jeans and sneakers and how she smiled at me i was a goner..

[Freyke]

I do because I met her like that. We had to part ways that first day but as we walked away for a bit we caught eachother staring back at eachother with a smile saying who is that person?

[TenderFantasy]

No, no such thing.

Love takes time to develop. It's always usually 'just' LUST.

[AMS700CX4u2]

It takes time to learn about a person, infatuation at first sight, yes. Devoted Love , No

[TalynMere]

Love isn't real. It's all just sex ultimately.

[richardcory]

Now. It takes time to learn enough about a person to know if you can love them.

[Rizwan_khan]

No there no such thing love at first sight. We just attract to that person we can love person when we know him/ her and we like each other thing then we fall in love.

[ColHathi]

Voted no. I believe in infatuation at first sight. That that might turn out to work out in the end with real love is another matter.

[clampfan101]

I’ll give you a reason. I experienced it. I’d be marrying what started as my childhood sweetheart if she was still alive…

[TomMarks]

I believe in lust at first sight. True love takes time to grow.

[Anonymous]

No, I don't date broke women. I can't fall in love unless she makes $135k.

[LiamJHayden]

Romantic love? Nope. That's lust or infatuation.

[Iron_Man]

My friends wife said it was love at first sight when she met him

[Anonymous]

No. Because I'm not a 13 year old girl writing in her "hello kitty" diary". 😆😆😆

[Anonymous]

Love takes time to develop; especially when you can turn off your emotions.

[Smashingdoozy]

Nah you gotta get to know someone

[SixOfClubs]

Exists only in fairy tales.

[Blackcupcake]

no because you can’t love someone you do not know

[Dargil]

No, but I believe in infatuation.

[Rockstarrrrr]

[Wise4myage]

No, but I do believe in lust at first sight.

[NostalgiaSenpi]

No, that's infatuation.

[legalboxers]
