Does it really happen or is that something for the movies and works of fiction?

No such thing as love at first sight.

I'm not sure

I think you can see someone and have a chat and think, 'wow, she's really nice' but love, I think it takes a little more, although that first glance can set you on the road to bliss.

There is too! It happens the first time that parents see their new-born child.

Well, some people say they are married to or in a relationship with some people where it was love at first site. Maybe it was a strong attraction when first meeting and developed to marriage over time. There are a lot of things that go into love. It seems kind of rare that 2 people when first meeting, fall into love, and it lasts for the rest of their lives.

Joe, you are such a romantic a heart.

No, I don't believe it to happen. I think maybe a strong physical attraction, but not love.

I think true love has little to do with physical attraction.

^^ exactly! Why don't people get this...??

I thought long and hard before I answered this, but you're right, I'm a sucker for a bit of romance, whether it involves me or someone else

How about love at last look? Is there such a thing?

Would that be like this?: "The last time I looked at my ex, she was being led away in handcuffs, and I loved it."

That would be similar to an Irish goodbye..

Only in hindsight.

Love is a process.
The human brain is a wonderful thing.
People mutate, and adapt, and mix all sorts of things together.
It's possible for someone to go through that process within an extremely short period of time.
It's why the phases of falling in love are given in average ranges, rather than exact categorical measurements of hours, minutes, and days.


What's for the movies and works of fiction is it working out if one person feels "love at first sight."

Seriously, if one person falls in love at first sight, it's going to screw everything up if the other one just follows the normal timeline and comes to that conclusion in a matter of a few months or year(s).

How do you feel when someone says "I love you!" on the first date?
How do you feel when you say "I love you!" and they say "hmmm, that's nice. I really like you."
Remember your behavior on the last first date you had, now remember the behavior of the last person that "loved" you? "Clingy" comes to mind.

Usually, things don't work out unless both people are generally on the same page at approximately the same time.

Or " love bug"... when your doing it in a Volkswagen Beetle

My ex actually was led away in handcuffs after she shot the next male person foolish enough to marry her.
I would have loved to have seen her taken away that way.

aaa dude its just a saying,,but i have seen a few woman in my time and said, wow who is that,,or i sooo need to talk to her..but love? no..

After you loose the one you love you understand how mutch you love him / her Thats love.....

have fallen in love at first sight twice in my life

on the day each one of my son's came into the world

Aww...i bet you loved them even before you saw them come out..
