Does love require time to form?

you know, that's the beauty of love. You do not know when it forms but when you start questioning it that's when you are getting ahead of yourself. the best love is when you don't question it but you feel. I think nobody has ever been able to study love as it is so abstract, you might as well philosophize about it however, once you make it a study, forget about doing. it's no longer love itself but philosophy.

absolutely! i think there is really no such thing as true love at first sight, sure this is an attraction to one another, but love does take time to grow. its like a plant.

Definitely! Real love is not love at first sight. That is a fallacy. LAFS is only a physical attraction and real love is much deeper than that.

That's the funniest thing about love. It requires nothing that we think it does, it's just free.

It is like a plant. The more you take care of it, the more it blossoms. We can never distinguish what love is. When I loved the person I am with right now I was like, "he's not my type! he has chinky eyes, fair complexion and he's thin..." But all of that physical aspect just disappeared and all I can see is how beautiful he is inside. The more you spend time with the person, the more you see who he is inside. Time is really something indispensable. Its ours to use. To our advantage or disadvantage. Love is very complicated. Some say that there is Love at First Sight. Let them spend more time with each other and see how the relationship will go. Knowing someone helps you to understand them and it lessens the fights and misunderstandings caused by not really knowing that person well.

In my experience yes it does take time. My very dirst love i met while doing a co-op program at a banquet hall. I was introduced to him, and we went on our own ways. I never thought much about it, and nor did he. A month or 2 passed, and we slowly started talking more. Neither one of us had any sort of attraction to the other, we were just building up a friendship. We were good friends for about 5 months, and yeah we hung out a lot, but i continued to date other guys, and he was recovering from a breakup. Then one day, it just change, it was almost instantly, atleast it was for me. FOr about a week there was a lot of tension, but we still hung out and talked. Then one day we kissed, and that was it. I mean we both already cared for eachother on a much deeper level than a physical relationship. He was my bestfriend and support and i was his. And we had a lot of fun together, and after that first kiss we only ever grew closer and closer, and now almost 3 years after we have broken up, we still talk atleast once a week. Anyways, basically my point is you can fall in love with the people you least expect. SO basically yeah it could take time. Cause you may need to build up a solid friendship and really get to know the other person and their personality, before you can see them in that way.

Not all the time. Have you ever heard of love at first sight? Sometimes it is instant attraction. For some, it takes time to develop.
