    Only when it comes to children. Although I loved him before I saw him, the feelings just intensified.

    I don't believe in romantic love at all.

    Well aren't you sweet. I can see why you'd feel compelled to click on a thread about love.

    No. I'm too practical for love at first sight. I'm one of those people who question whether or not you can be in love.

    I mean, I love my son, but there is a difference between loving someone and being "in love."

    Absolutely. The first time I met my husband I came home called my mom in the middle of the nite to tell her I just met my soul mate.

    Lust at first sight... yeah, daily

    Love at first sight?... Actually, yes. Saw a girl walk into my classroom when I was eight... turned to my friend and said, "she'll be my girl."

    My friends didn't really like her (too immature... at EIGHT!) Sadly, as an eight year old, I was too stupid to go with my young heart, and instead was a jerk to her with my friends... but she kept plugging along... writing me letters smelling heavily of cheap perfume but explained away as being air freshener, for a couple of years.

    We met again in High School... she was still really sweet and, by that time, after being such a jerk, I figured I didn't have a shot.

    16 years later, we find each other... I find out she's never been married... had always thought that someone who was truly made for her would find her... but had recently taken on a relationship that she wasn't completely head over heals for, but was firmly entrenched.

    To this day, she is beautiful, in and out... simply one of the best people i know... always have and always will love her...

    So yeah... I believe in it.

    Love at first sight, well not love at first sight...but I do believe in an instant connection...I think its more for intelligence and humor....the love comes later....

    Yes, I was/am a shy person, and I can't talk to "hott" guys without getting all tongue tied, sweaty, frigidity and just making myself look stupid. The day I met my husband, I was 17 at the time. I immediately thought he was "hott". I was able to talk to him, as if we had known each other forever it was so easy. I even ended up giving him my e-mail & phone number. His ex-girlfriend saw us that day talking and laughing and even asked me if I was his girlfriend. I of course said, no I just met him today. anyways long story short, I tried to keep him in the friend zone for the longest time, saying that I hadn't known him long enough, He's just gonna hurt me if I take it to the next level, like my last 2 boyfriends did. After a few months he asked me out and I turned him down, he kept talking to me and after a while I stopped fighting my feelings for him and asked him out, we've been together ever since.

    I'll believe it if or when it damn happens. ;-) I am hopeful though.

    Lust yes, I am too much of a cynic to believe in love at first sight. I also believe you can love someone when there is no chance of it ever working out, despite them ticking all your boxes. Sometimes life just gets in the way of your heart.

    No..It's more like Lust at first sight, you can't truly love something without getting to know them...

    maybe not sight, but maybe upon the first meeting. My husband and I knew each other for 24 days when we got married. We have been married for over 20 years.

    or should I walk by again?

    yeah that what it reminded me of, but yeah I don't believe in love at first sight. I believe in infatuation at first sight, reminds me of when I first saw my wife with sober eyes

    No.

    Love is different than that.

    11 years ago I would have said no. People who were all "I love you" after one day of dating annoyed the piss out of me. :huh:

    Then I met my husband and cried with overwhelming feelings after the first date (not around him...didn't want to seem like the crazy lady). Then 3 days later he was pouring his heart out to me and said "Please don't leave me when I say this...This is the weirdest thing, and it has never happened like this before. But, after 3 days of dating you, I think I love you. Well, I knew it on the first night....please please please don't freak out and run."

    A weight was lifted off of my shoulders, because I felt the same.

    Now, 11 years later, I still feel the same (with a little "OMG I AM GOING TO KILL YOU IF YOU THROW YOUR CLOTHES ON THE FLOOR NEXT TO THE HAMPER!") as I did on day one. I love that slob.

    Infatuation can feel very strong, but it's not often love unless you two REALLY click.
  • I absolutely do.

    Not because I've experienced it, but because I just can't fathom a reason why someone couldn't just know.

    Love takes time to develop, so no.

    But I believe you can fall for someone at first sight.. And only if "first sight" also includes a conversation.. There's more than looks, and someone can be very attractive but be completely incompatible with you.


    I feel you need to get to know a person before you can call it love.

    I guess my answer assumed a lot of things lol.

    By first sight...I meant more along the lines of a first date. I usually know if I can love someone within an hour or so of meeting her...and unless she changes her personality drastically at some point, I'm almost always right.

    What Erin said pretty much covers it...!
