Do you believe in love at first sight?

Hey there everyone!
I was reading through some threads and in one someone mentioned love at first sight!
I wanted to know everyone's opinions on it, (noticed I said opinions, so no arguing peoples!)
I've always believe that there was no such thing as love at first sight! - To me there could be 'infatuation' at first sight or 'lust' but not 'love'
= Every time someone has said that they fell in love with me as soon as they saw me I could never take them seriously, and presumed that
it was just them saying it to try and make me happy and feel special
So come on guys? Whats the verdict?
:shocking:

thats not always true most guys will say that genuinly but there are some nob ends out there who use women/lie etc etc.
Personally i think love is something that needs to be built on, like how the person reacts to a crisis or pressure which cant really be found out by looking at someone.
I don't think you can love somebody until you know who they are and more about them. Not just on first sight. Love and lust are hard to tell apart, I think thats why people say it's love at first sight when really it is just lust.
We didnt actully do anything sexual till 4+half week later.
Still together now 9 years in august.
But I believe in something at first sight. The first time I met my husband I couldn't take my eyes off him, not in an OMG-I-love-him kind of way, but in a stranger, subtler way that I couldn't describe even now. We worked together for 3 years before we got together, and that feeling never went away - whatever happened in my life and however things were, he was always there in the background, and it built and built and built until it became inconceivable that I would ever be able to live without him.
It wasn't love, it was just something.
I think when people say they've had love at first sight it's just lust at first sight that turned out for the best.
Pheromones maybe.
Something at first sight, yes. But love is much deeper than that.
It's the feeling you get that you want to hump someone, when you see them, and when you get together and it turns out the relationship is perfect, then it was love at first sight.
If you get the feeling but the relationship is awful then, then it was apparently no love at first sight.
so it's just wishy washy.
I don't know. It's a continuum, reaching from "eww, wouldn't touch that." over "hm, with a paperbag over the head it might work." to "wow, she is cute I want her." ending in "HOLY DAMN, PENIS! TAKE CONTROL, I TRUST YOU IN THIS ISSUE." and if it's on the latter end of the continuum and you end up together, people like to call it love at first sight.
Agreed. But i think you can certainly have some kind of spark at first sight, but not love.
Nail on the head, I reckon.
total rubbish i think
my friends all believe it and i'm like naaah!
how can you possibly love someone when you don't know them ?
as most other people have said-
yeah you can be attracted to someone but you can't love them
has anyone ever really loved someone at first sight ??
don't believe it
as emma said how can you "Love" someone that u've only seen
you don't even know what type of person they are
yeah someone may say but i know them off the internet and i havn't seen them yet, in the internet you can pretend to be someone ur not soooo
i defo don't believe in love at first sight
but lust at first sight
thats more realistic
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
that made my day really
and how many "knew" they were the one and it's meant to happen and then it failed? hm?
You can't love somebody you've never had a convo with. But I do believe that you can fall in love with somebody relatively rapidly, even in one night, but you do at least have to have spoken to them.
dang :P
