    I certainly believe in love at first sight. It's the best feeling in the world when your eyes fall upon the most beautiful person (not necessarily physical beauty) and you know with utmost certainly that you want to be with that person.

    I've felt that once before, but nothing came of it, unfortunately (I was too frightened to act on my feelings) and it's a major regret of mine that I failed to do anything.

    I do not, however, believe that love at first sight is necessary mutual. For example, Person A might feel certain (s)he is in love with Person B, but Person B might not even notice Person A exists.

    Am I making even the slightest sense? <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;

    i dont know about love at first sight. love isnt something you just stumble across, its something that grows from an initial attraction or sometimes a friendship. i think its what's commonly known as lust <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/tongue.gif"&gt;

    i thought i was in love with this one guy, but afterwards i realised it was lust or something because it wasnt all consuming or ever lasting or anything like that. real love is a lot more difficult to come across.

    ^^^^^^^ Good post.

    Love is too deep an emotion to feel on sight. What you feel is instant attraction, or lust. You can't truly love someone until you get to know the person inside, and you can't do that just by looking.

    i would like to believe there is love at first sight cos it would be so romantic. i guess if you really believe in it, it can happen. i know some people has experienced it.

    i know it has never happened to me before. i don't know do i believe in that kinda thing or not. love is such a deep feeling that i think can only be experienced over time, can certainly not happen within a few seconds. certainly when u see someone across a room u may feel a bond instantly with them, but at the stage, i think it's lust more than anything else. then over time, it developes into love.

    i believe in LUST at first sight.

    but im not saying love at first sight cannot happen, just not to me yet and i don't really believe in it personally either.

    Yes, thinking about it now, I do believe you're right. But lust, surely, is often the foundation for love?

    It really depends on how one defines "love at first sight". Does this term mean that you fall in love with someone the first time your eyes meet, or is it rather a case of knowing that you will eventually fall in love with a particular person once you get to know them better?

    I believe in infatuation at first sight, but not love.

    Then again, I believe, that you can know who your soul mate after one conversation though.

    I don't know, I'm just weird.

    personally i don't believe in love at first sight. like the others (sorry, can't be bothered to scroll up and find your names! <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/tongue.gif"&gt; ) were saying, lust or infatuation, or at least a desire to get to know the person, at first sight are common and often what a relationship is built on.

    but that's the key - relationships are built, not prefabricated, if that makes any sense!
    This is the first day of the rest of your life.

    I believe in that kind of love at first sight because I've experienced it. Sometimes when I first see someone I think wow and I know for sure that in a year I'm still going to be thinking wow whenever I see him <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;

    But as for the love at first sight like in the movies when two people's eyes meet across a crowded room and at the end of the evening they're sleeping with each other and planning their wedding..... no I don't believe in that.

    <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/rolleyes.gif"&gt; ... you KNOW who i mean!

    but yeah, you can see people and there the chemistry there that people often build relationships on. but just coz your eyes meet and you both think *wow*, that doesnt guarantee that a relationship will work out. i believe the relationships built on friendship are more longer-lasting and strong.
