What do you think? Have you ever fallen in love at first sight??? Is it possible?

I’ve fallen in love at second sight, but I was on Piracetam which amplified my emotions. Felt real enough though.
Piracetam is not to be messed with, it pretty much gave me a drug-induced SZ.

I haven’t. I think love grows like a fungus. You don’t notice it at first and then all if a sudden it’s taken over and you can’t get rid of it.

It’s more like lust at first sight.
Love takes time.

yes I agree @LED spending a lot of time with someone is the main trigger. 
@Wave yeah I have never fallen in love at first sight. I don’t really have the mind for it. When I meet people, I have trained myself to have no sexual chemistry. The thought just never crosses my mind. Actually I don’t know if it is the stupid illness, I don’t even have fantasies anymore like I had when I was 18-19. It’s so weird! I guess the human version of a vegetable.

Never been in love at all. Although I’ve had some intense crushes. But not for people I’m not familiar with.

I don’t really believe in it. Sure there’s sexual attraction and that is great but on the meds I’m pretty even these days. I sure don’t miss that erotomania and stuff like I was before the meds. It’s nice to have normal relationships with women!

erotomania ruined my life. I still feel horrible when I have flashbacks of the things that happened. It’s not easy forgetting this trauma.

But is that love? I had erotomania I think too, but had I been in my right mind I wouldn’t have those thoughts

did you fall in love at first sight?
I had it twice. Once in real life, the other over social media. It sucks.
It is not love. It is a delusional reality. At first, when I had the though of the guy who was supposedly in love with me, I felt so weird about it. I convinced myself we should be together because we had to. Care to learn more?
Humiliation is life changing.

Yeah ! When I was about 23. It was mutual. But we didn’t realise it till we eventually got together. Ah… Happy days.

@mermaid1 I thought the guy at work was so into me even though he stopped interacting with me I took it as a sign he was just helping me somehow to come out of my shell. And not only that I was convinced everyone just loved me not romantically but it was really weird feeling. This was of course years ago.

I know, so the mind translates the reality like that… sucks so much. I can’t believe I had to go through this crap at 22 years old. my years from 18-about now suck so much. My life only started getting better in 2014, then back again and now it seems I am well again. I hope it stays like this but I just feel sad about it.
