Naah, I don't really think it would work...You could feel physically attracted to a person when you see them, but love is more than that, isn't it?

No... Mostly that falls to be a strong attraction for a cute face that one have always imagined of. And it is mistaken as love at first sight...

Some people mistake physical attraction for love, when in fact, that is lust. Someone can think they are in love with someone at first sight, then when they get to know that person, they aren't so loveable. And the opposite is also true. You may not think a person is all that attractive, but once you get to know them, you begin to fall in love with who that person is on the inside.

I believe in love at first bite. Love at first nibble works for me, too.

I think there is love at first sight. I fell for a man I worked for the moment I saw him. Got well and truly knocked off me feet. Kept my feelings to myself. The more I got to know him, the more I liked him. No romance at the time as it was work but we had a special raport and could spark each other off. The job we did ended and he went back to America and I moved to England. We lost touch.

Fast forward 10 years. We got in touch and amazingly he came to the UK often to a city not far from me. We started seeing each other. The feelings were still there.

I ended the relationship because I couldn't cope with the LDR when he went back home or elsewhere in the world as he travelled a lot.

Eventually I met and married my now late husband but have never forgotten this man - even yet. He will always have a special place in my heart, so yes, there is such a thing as love at first sight but it doesn't always work out for various reasons.

And had you NOT liked him after getting to know him more, would you still call it "love at first sight"? That was lust at first sight, a physical attraction.

i believe it can work but very few times people fall really deep in love just cause of physical attraction i mean they may have the best sex ever and then that wears off their love falls apart or 2 can love each others looks and hate each others personality when they get to really know each other too thats why myself i look to a persons heart first i mean looks help but heart and true honesty in a person remains way longer then looks cheers good luck :thumbsup:

Physical attraction peeks the interest, but, you are correct that what is in a person's heart is the most important.

the eyes lust, the spirit loves

I dont believe in 'love' at first sight, but I do believe sight/lust/attraction can intrigue our interest and opportunity to fall in love,,,

No, I do not believe in love at first sight. I do not know if it works and take the view formed by my common sense.

Love at first sight would be merely physical attraction. AS well, have you heard the saying, "Do not judge a book by its cover" comes to mind. I am a book reader and saying is a true statement and find it applicable to all things in life. When I pick up a book now I know from experience that the title does not truly depict what the book is actually all about. Or, you can have a perfectly good looking egg in your fridge, no cracks on it and white yet take it out to use, crack it open and find it is bad inside, the egg is no good inside.

What I believe from common sense about finding your true love is to start by building a relationship: dating, friendship, then courtship to marriage. While building the relationship a person will find out the other person's likes and dislikes, what the person is made of from the inside, all things to consider, to weigh out over a duration of time in order to make a good decision on whether this person whom you were physically attracted to at first, is someone you truly love by whether this person and yourself are a fit for each other, a match, is your soul mate... .

I disagree with "love at first sight" will actually work and the probability would be very low that you would luck out. Why mess up your live and another's person to find out it was a wrong fit? Life is too short to play such games is my thought. Rather love is looking first on the inside of each other not on the outside first to find your mate for life. To find your true love is a process of getting to know each other and through discernment a good decision can be made on whether this person you were physically attracted to at first sight was really your "love at first sight".

That is my stand on this topic.

It wasn't lust - that was the last thing on my mind. Only way I can describe it was I felt I'd been zapped by an electric current.

Even stranger, during the 10 years we'd lost contact, there was one night I had a strange dream. In the dream I saw him in a hospital bed. When I woke I knew something bad had happened to him. When we met up again I nearly fell off my seat when he told me he'd been very ill and had nearly died. The hospital thought he was not going to survive the night. He told me that he dreamed of me and that somehow I gave him the strength to fight back. He nearly fell off his seat when I told him of my dream.

Believe what you will but we shared some kind of bond that can't be explained that went way beyond anything physical.

I know, even yet when I think of this man, I smile inside :smile:
