Love at first sight?

I woke up today to a post on Facebook by a friend saying how 3 years ago today he saw the love of his life across a room. He was too shy to talk to her but she was thinking the same thing and now they have a baby.
This post has given a little bit of hope in me that this kind of thing does happen but also just a bit depressed that it hasn't yet. Anyway think that this is actually possible to happen?

Should you wait for an attractive person to approach you and hope everything works out fine? Are you checking all the boxes so you can be the love at first sight? Are you attractive? Do you frequently get into situations where you meet new and exciting people? Are you content with your life or will you bring insecurities into the possible relationship that might create tension?
I found if you think about more thoroughly about the cliché "love comes to the one not looking for it." it becomes truer. This does not mean you should be at home as miserable as before but convince yourself you are not looking for a relationship, it means that you should invest your time into becoming a better and happier person. I will quote an internet person now who said it better than I could. It was directed towards a young man, but is true regardless of gender me thinks:
I'm in a very happy relationship - there's been a spark since we first met, so assuming it keeps working you could look back and call it love at first sight. In reality, it's two people who clicked together really well, and eventually got to the point where built on that.
Sometimes there can be a lot of emphasis put on the romance of how a relationship starts, when actually what is potentially more relevant is 'how do you maintain that relationship once you've established the spark in the first place'. I'm pretty sure that being love struck the first time you meet isn't the key to that.
Lexi, do you know much about the couple you've referenced? I reckon it would be helpful for you to get under the surface of other people's relationships a bit - it can be really insightful and helpful in terms of fantasy avoidance.
actually i think now i am in love.but i am not sure..please tell me about ""love at first site""
