is it possible to love a person at first glance, when you know almost nothing of him or her, even his/her full name, age, educational attainment, character?
can you call it love at first glimpse?
Or is it just a mere admiration falling short of the requisites to be dubbed as love?
Are we not judging our feeling prematurely by saying we feel LOVE AT FIRST GLANCE?

Everything is possible. Love comes in many forms so, how can we right away judge and tell it is not possible? Maybe, it will start as an attraction. Physical attraction. Then, if there's a chance for them to take it to a higher level, then they might ask for each other's numbers and continue on with the getting-to-know stage. It all depends on them if they want to take it to the next level. But the possibility of LOVE, is never impossible.

See Dante's words (Italian poet): "Amor รจ un desio che nasce dal core". Love comes from the heart. I believe in love at first glance, but love can't live alone or it die. When two people feel love it doens't die.

I feel there are times in a persons life when you can see that special someone that you are destined to be with the first time you see them. I know that the day I met my husband like 8 1/2 yrs. ago, the day we met, God told me I was going to meet someone, and when I met my husband that day, I knew he was the one. Yes, destiny does happen from day one.

i do NOT belive in love at first sight. I do belive in attraction - but not love. For me love is something that u do after u know a person and how he is and what kind of person he is. You might love the way he look, the way he smiles or the way he does something els, but that is not true, real love!

hi there..
yes i think this is often called the love at first sight kinda thing..
but i see nothing wrong with that, because i believe that this just boils down to admiration....
you cannot trully love a person not unless you will get to know him/her better.. and then from there you'll see...
thanks a bunch^_^

It is very common in movies, but for me, I think it's possible. It's an experience whrein it seems that everything around you just stopped moving. When I first met the love of life, I enjoy looking at him but I am not really sure at first if that is really love.

no, ithink not. you can't truly love a person without knowing who he really is inside and out. you may feel something at first glance but that is not love. it might be the feeling the you are connected to the person in a certain, unknown way but you may not immediately call this love. if the feeling of distinct connection is felt toward a person at first sight, there is a possibility that it might develop to love later on.

it is definately possible to love a person at the first glance. when u first have a look at this person you know somewhere in you heart that this is the person with whom you would like to spend the rest of your life. it is an indication or telepathy or magic between these people which makes such things happen.

It happened to me. So, I can say is true. Maybe love is a word to powerfull, but I can not find another. It was real and functioned both sides. And in the end was a beautifoul love story for 3 years.
So I can call it love at first glance. But in our life we have a lot of situation when we like or, whorse, unlike a pearson at first glance. That I call intuition...

There is no such thing as love at first sight. okay, people, read first, dont throw tomatoes while im not yet finished. i know a lot disagree with me but i know i'm right with this one. there is no such thing as love at first sight, but there is such thing as ATTRACTION, INFATUATION and ADMIRATION at first sight. i know because i have seen lots of heart-worthy guys--i felt something for them but i knew deep inside the feelings are not LOVE. and of course, you will not love a person unless you know him or her deeply and of course, you will only feel love when the right time comes. maybe you'd all disagree with me, but sometimes we mistake LOVE for infatuation. Believe me, i'm young but i know because i have learned and i'm experienced.
