I fall in love at first sight when I was 14-15 years old. Now I don't believe in this.

No, in my opinion, people who said "love at first sight" usually only take a liking to a person's outer appearance. H/she may confused it with admire of beauty. How can you "love" someone before you even get to know them? I believe it's just like, not love.

I do believe. Well I fall in love everyday when seeing beutiful girls on the streets but those loves lasts only about 10 seconds. But I think it's possible to happend to someone if you got lucky.

Not really you need to know the person to be in love. Other than that its just a crush.

well i do believe..but not maybe when i´m 14/15... i thing this is to young to know what true love is..maybe to be in love is kind of a dreamworld..but u cant c the diference when ure younger+older... well i just made the experience when i was younger and i had a "boyfriend" it was only kissing+laughing around..and of coz this daydreaming things like "oh i wanna be together with him in life"blabla.. i dunno..but thats my opinion._.

I do not believe in love at first sight... It seems to me that it is not always a real love... For me, it is more a form of physical attraction rather than anything else... Personally, I do not think that I would be able to love someone that I saw just few seconds without talking to that person and knowing things about the person in question through real discussions...

i belive in lust at 1st site but not love becouse to me to truely love some one you have not know them both inside and out you have to know who they are and what their dreams, wishes and hopes are where they come from where they are going and what is it that moves them you jave to know there flawss and and their quirlsa and know that those things are apart of them and acepte them for who they are and not what you want them to be so to love at ist sight is just a romatice notion that is not real becouse you cant truly love anything that you know nothing of i guess yo could say that you love the idea of loving them or love what they look like but its just not possible to truley love them on look alone

no, i dont. You cant just judge someone and say that they are perfect for you just with one look! like they say "you cant judge a book by its cover"

I dont believe in love at first sight, but certainly in attraction. Of course, there are examples of people falling in love with each other right at the beginning who end up happily with each other and marry and stuff, but I think this is coincidence.

Actually I experienced a "love at first sight" myself with my last girlfriend. She came into the room at a friends party and i was baffled like "OMG". We became a couple around 3 weeks after after that, and I can really say, I was experiencing one of my happiest times ever. But thats past now, we broke up 4 months ago.

no, i don't believe in something like that, sounds like a fantasy to me, nothing real. as said above there could be a lot of attraction between two people, but not fall in love instantly..

I don't think that I should say anything... but I don't believe in it cause I have never seen anyone that I had fallen in love with at first glance... but I do think that there are those few moments when you see some one and you really think they are the most beautiful thing you have ever seen. but other then that I'm not a big believer...

Not accurately possible. Just a gamble.

Every now and then, I always see a "do you believe in love at first sight" thread. xp

It so happens that I sort of do believe in "love at first sight", and I sorta don't. Somehow love at first sight in my opinion is just Judging by how the person looks . I mean some people just see the person, and they would be like "I AM IN LOVE!", and it's like "YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW THE PERSON, JUST SEEING THE PERSON FOR THE FIRST TIME, so how can you be in love? So that's what I mean when I say, I sorta don't believe in love at first sight. >_<

But hey! On the other hand. I believe more in "lust at first sight", given that it's very hard to really "love" someone on first look as you don't even know them. So, in thinking about this, I do think that love at first sight is, in reality, lust at first sight , and then comes the love... if you are so lucky as to have it develop into that. xp

You can be attracted to someone straight away, but really, I don't know whether it can be classed as love until you get to know the person. Until then it's more like a crush or for the adult term, lust.

Lust feels pretty good too though, so it seems nicer to call it love. Lust at first sight just doesn't have to same ring to it. ;)

..don't mind me; I'm bored and rambling! =/

i fell it. i did at least. in my 1st year in high school. and it really is a wonderfull feeling. argh! i miss her!

I think it's more of an infatuation than love. If you love someone, I think that you like both their personality and appearance. That will only happen once you get to know them. I don't think that you can love someone if you don't know about them. After all, their personality won't be known to you until you actually become friends and get to know them.

I don't believe in love at first sight. You develop crushes at first sight. Sometimes psychotic, stalker-like crushes.

I feel someone is in love when they know as much as they can about the other person, the good things, bad things and most of the embarassing things...and still love them. They know what their partner looks like without make up and that doesn't scare them.

Outward appearances should never matter when you're in love. Love is when you love what's on the inside more than what's on the outside.

Nope, I don't... If at the first sight and I think she's cute or sexy, yes I did... But love is not only about appearance... It takes a lot more time to really fall in love...

I no longer believe in this. I used to, but now I think that love is based on sacrifice and dedication to the person.

Well I think its more a little crush when you see someone cute. You have you get to know the persons personality before you really can love her/him. But as Silent above me said, i also thought of it first but not anymore.

I dont believe in love at first sight, but certainly in attraction. Of course, there are examples of people falling in love with each other right at the beginning who end up happily with each other and marry and stuff, but I think this is coincidence.I don't necessarily think this is coincidence, but I do not believe in "true" love at first sight.

As many people here have said, you can have a strong attraction/infactuation/lust for a person at first sight, there are even those of us who can tell a lot about someone's personality by subtle clues and use that to add to their attraction, but this is not true love. Love is something that needs to grow and flourish, it is not something that can happen in a moment.

BUT, I DO believe you can be unusually attracted to someone at first sight in a deeper way than just thinking someone is beautiful. Is this love? No, but it is a strong possibility. Perhaps this person has potential to be someone who you'll fall in love with. My first real, tue, love happened in this manner, and the woman I'm with now after 4.5 years was the same way. I had this uncanny strong attraction to her that went well beyond physical appearance, got together, and am still happily together with her today. Do I call this a coincidence? No, but I still do not consider it " love at first sight".
