Well hello again nakitalikely3617. I stopped believing in love at first sight a long time ago. The reson for this is becasue I use to fall in love with a guy when I first seen them bnut once I got to know them and be around them I came to understand that they weren't this great person that I thought I loved. My daughter's father for example. I did and still do love him but I am no longer head over hills for him, I remember it like yesterday when he first approached me. He had this great big smile and oh boy those dimples. Well when we first approached me I fell for him, that night after leaving the mall his name rang in my head. He was dreamy, but what I failed to realize was that Matthew was a dog. A do double g type dog. He told me he loved me throughout a 3 year relationship but trust me he didn't. I take that back he probably did love me but still haven't figured outhow to appreciate when he has good things in his life. Well Ms.NakitaLikely3617 due to all of the heartache he has caused me I truly have stopped believing in love at first sight. Glad to have some input on this top but unitl next time nakitalikely3617 I have the power of the pen in my hand and I don't plan on going anywhere. Take Care!

Hello kitaboo1, you are so right about you not being on mylot in a very long time. Well I am glad to see that you have come back. You let me be the first to re-welcome you back to this site! Welcome back ktiaboo1! It is boys like Matthew that give love a bad name. My advice to you would be to let Matthew be there for that beautiful baby girl and far as you, stay strong and don't allo him to run over you and to treat you bad ever again. Do not stop falling in love or even stop believing in it. Trust I have fallen for a lot of guys that have similar tendiences like Matthew and in the end once they have messed up they seem to always want you back. But by that time you are blessed with someone else. Keep being the wondeful mother that you are. Until next time NakitaLikely3617 is out. See you soon!

Yes I do believe in it. When I first met my partner I fell in love with him the minute I set my eyes on him but didnt think he would like me so chose to ignore him a bit haha. Then we became friends and then lovers and I havent regretted a second of it!

There have been many cases of "Love at first site". Some went well and happy, and some ended soon afterwards. These are very much cases of destiny. Some strange destiny bring the people together at the right time at the right place, or at the wrong time at the wrong place. Whichever, I wish them happiness forever !

Quite natural to be in love at first sight but the turmoil that follows after this is questionable as well. I have seen many men who fell in love at first sight with so many people and I wonder what makes them do that. Wihtout knowing someone or background or what not. For me its really diffiicult to do it.

If you would ask me, then honestly speaking i really donot believe in love at first sight thing. And I really wonder how people can fall in love at first sight with someone whom they really dont know, their likes and dislikes, their hobbies and habits etc etc. In my opinion a person is not a decoration piece or a stuff toy that u can like at first sight, one can fall in love at first sight with the beautiful eyes but not her vision about world, one can fall in love at first sight with external appearance but not the human inside and i believe these inside traits are more important for ever lasting love than the external appearance. This is just my point of view.

I have never experienced love at first sight so at this point, I don't believe in it. I feel like it's just a moment of great physical attraction, because for me, I can't fall in love with someone just based on what they look like. I have to know them as friends first and really get to know what their personality is like in order to fall in love. I've had major crushes based on just their looks however, but I end up getting over it not too long after.

Have you fallen in love with that person at first sight? I am not sure I believe in it, since it has never happened to me. But lust at first sight is another story. There was this one person...It still makes me feel bad that I haven't been able to hook up with him. Don't get me wrong, I am actually a hopeless romantic but I have been unlucky romantically so many times that I am starting to get more and more cynical each day.

I do not believe in love at first sight the reason for this is usually due to lust of infatuation you can't love a person if you don't know them. It takes time for love to grow and develop into something beautiful and worth it but then again you can also fall out of love.

I do not believe that love at first sight is possible because of what I believe love truely is. You can most certainly have attraction at first sight, enfatuation at first sight, but not love. I believe that love is a choice. Romantic love is first of all not very rare, and second, is only the beggining of a true love-filled relationship. I believe love is based on deciding that this person is the one you would do absolutely anything for, and then living according to that decision. EVEN IF you don't necissarily like the person at any given time, loving them requires you to care for them sacrificially.
So, my answer is- No. Love happens after building a trusting relationship. A large part of love is a choice. "I chose to be there for you always, even when we aren't getting along" or even just "I chose to love you selflessly". Those romantic feelings are good and important too, but emotions are fickle and easily swayed by circumstances. Love sacrificially and the rest will fall into place.
I hope this helps ^^
