what do you think?

or ? why?

 

No, you have to know someone to really 'love' them.

Lust at first sight though, yes.

 

 

If you mean physical attraction, of course it is possible. But if you are referring to real love, no, I don't believe in it.

It all boils down to your definition of love.

 

that's pretty much what im thinking.. now if you spent like a few hours with the person.. i know you dont really get to know her very much..., but she has something that just makes me

too bad she's kinda out of reach

 

Yes, it's very possible, im marrying mine...that i fell in love with at first site..we locked eyes when we first saw each other, i almost tripped in front of the whole class... heh heh, it took a year, but i got her..7 years later, we're getting married...and dude she's HOT!

 

 

If you make these kind of statements,




And I agree with everyone above pretty much.

 

Hell no....im not putting pics of her on the public site...people like me abuse them with photoshop hahaha

I actually did post a photo in member pics...go look there...

that was a bad photo of her...

 

Anyways...the point is


YES LOVE AT FIRST SITE IS POSSIBLE, IM LIVing proof of it!!!

 

here is one from previous

 

Yep, it was love at first sight - but it took us about a year to figure out that that was what it was.......

 

I don't think love at first sight is possible with my definition of love.

 

and you won't really know its love until a year or so later

 

I fell in love with dark the fist time I saw him walking out of my patients room....although I didn't know it until he told me about 6 months later! I'm not sure when he fell in love with me. I will have to ask him that.

 

I'm pretty much in your camp on this too. Love takes time to build. It is possible that you could meet the person who you will fall in love with later, and then call that love at first sight, as some people have said

 

love at first site is possible... but will it last is a better question. there's not much foundation for the relationship except whimsical feelings which can easily fade

 

^ True...while I don't think its possible, or feasible...my own parents married after having known each other for two weeks. December 17th was their 27th wedding anniversary...

 

wow they really beat the odds

 

there is a nurse that I work with, she met her husband and then 1 month later they got married and then he was shipped off to someplace....they have been married 40 plus years...I think that kind of love is rare, but possible...sometimes God just mess around and just gives you the person you are supposed to be with..of course in my case, he had a big ass party with my life before he brought me dark....

 

Infatuation at first sight

Love takes a day or two.....

When you first see someone, I don't care how beautiful you think they are, you can't love them until you talk to them and know them. For those that knew it was love when they first saw someone, you know it could have gone either way once you talked to them, because whatever you felt when you first saw them would've evaporated if they started spewing shit when you started talking to them. You have to know to love, and to know takes more than a first sight.

 

I FELL IN LOVE with my Acura TL the first time I saw it.. (no joke) i knew that was the car for me...

 

I think lust, but not love at first sight. IMO, it takes a while to really love someone.

 

I think my wife and I fell in love at first sight. I don't think it was lust, although that certainly was a parallel factor........................ but not the dominant one.

Neither of us trusted our feelings much, my wife was cracking out of a rotten marriage and doing the single mom thing while managing a vicious divorce proceedings, and the last thing she needed was a 'love affair' on the side. I had just left a three-year relationship that went on the rocks instead of down the aisle, and I was pretty fried, and working a fulltime job, teaching part time and moonlighting for an additional 20-40 hours a week. We both worked for the same organization, albiet in different divisions. Not a pretty basis for a romance............ and not much time.....between her kid, her job and my jobs.

Probably made it easier, because the time we spent was real, not "date-based".... and we saw each other at our worst, not our best. More than a few times, our respective work shechdules had us talking in the office at two am.........

I don't think love is an object, however, or even a stable state - I think the nature of a love beween two deeply committed folks changes over time as age and experience change them. I've been fortunate in that my wife and I have grown closer, despite the vicissitudes of time, and despite health issues that have been massive and life-threatening. I never actually proposed to my wife, we never really dated; we just started planning our lives together............. and got married as soon as her divorce was finalized, which was seven or eight years after we met, and four years after we were truly committed to each other.

But yep, I believe that I fell in love at first sight, and I believe that I have found my soulmate.

 

Love is about many more things than what you can see with your eyes (I sound old). I think "love at first sight" is really just a case of being physically attracted to someone, and then actually falling in love once you get to know them. In that case, it's easy to say "yeah, it was love at first sight" even if it really wasn't. It's a good story to tell your kids. Also, this could explain why some people think it's love at first sight, and then are totally turned off when they meet the person. That's happened to me a few times.

 

My dad claims to have fallen in love with my mom when they were 10 years old, growing up in a small village in the Philippines. I loved hearing the stories, but my mom sort of rolls her eyes, because she basically ignored him and wondered what was wrong with this kid staring funny at her.

I think that you can sense a very strong, mutual compatibility/attraction within the first few minutes of meeting someone. It is super intense and makes you want to get to know the other person. But love, in my opinion, is a completely different animal that makes you committed enough to a person to still love him after, say, he purchases $7,000 one year on a stage 3 custom turbo kit and suspension and transmission upgrades.

 

I am sure he was just looking after your interests........................

 

oh yeah, every devoted wife needs a race-ready car. if he would LET me have enough time to train, then MAYBE, lol. j/k

this is the guy who is trying to get me justify spending $65 for The Wedge.

 

thx everyone for sharing ur opinion..

it's been 3 days now i talked to her yesterday and im hoping for more

 

well, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm $7000/$65 is 107 wedges. Seems to me that you might start there, and then back down to one..........

My wife, on the other had, was the type (after she blew out of her everyday job and became a consultant) who would hold down the fort, take the cats to the vet, pick up the cleaning, whip up my evening meals - until some day when I would come home and get a voicemail on the home phone that said that she was on her way to some consulting gig for three days, weeks or months, and that as soon as she knew, she would ask me to ship her luggage out........................

 

I do believe that there can be a feeling that runs through your body when seeing someone for the first time which will either put you at ease, make you feel comfortable, get your attention, make you jittery, excited, and/or nervous.....but I think that's more the laws of attraction - not love. It's your brain and/or body's way of telling you to listen up and pay attention to something that could be very important/special to you (i.e: the other person).

I do not believe in love at first sight. I think love involves knowing the good AND bad about someone and knowing and accepting the intimate details and/or flaws that make them unique and special to you. I can't see how you'd know all that about a person upon first glance.

As someone else mentioned - someone can walk in a room and definitely grab your attention ----- but they can lose it just as quickly the moment they open their mouths and can't put a sentence together! (For example)

 

Love at first sight? No.

Strong interest or attraction? Possible.

 

No

 

It takes me a bit to really get into a girl... a conversation, chit chat,... then it clicks in my head "wow, this chick is cool...













































...I wanna do her. "

Junkster, whose gonna be a dirty old man someday

 

 

Yes love at first site is possible . I have been happy for the last nine years. We will celebrate our 10th anniversary in August.
