I don’t know if it is possible, but I never have.
With chocolate cake and kittens, absolutely. But with other adults, it takes time.
no, it sounds weird haha
jk
What can I say?
The first time I looked in a mirror, I was smitten!
Let me ask a correlative question: Is it possible to hate at first sight? I’ve never actually hated a woman at first sight and then grown to love her, but I have grown to tolerate someone I hated at first sight…
I don’t believe it’s possible to “love” a complete stranger. You know nothing about them or their morals, habits, likes and dislikes and so on. All you can do is fancy them based purely on attractiveness. Love is much deeper and more complex than initial attraction despite what daft rom coms tell you…
I marry a different can of Diet Soda every day. But the uncontrollable drinking always ends the marriage.
I’ve absolutely fallen in lust at first sight, but not love.
I usually have to know someone for at least a month or two before I can even consider the possibility of developing feelings for them. Sometimes, it takes literal years.
Love is an imprecise word…I have felt a variety of positive feelings for other people. Often with several dozen different shades of feeling at different times. Exhilaration, fear, excitement, envy, attraction, interest, affiliation…the list goes on…
Many of these feelings I had at the time could not be explained by reason. They were simple chemical changes in my brain, meaning often little more than the emotional states produced in paranoid sz do when examined through the lens of logic. I have felt sexual lust towards people and even nonliving objects one day, for that to be replaced by disgust and disinterest another day or moment. What I’m trying to get at is that I don’t really believe in “love” being some universal concept among people, though I will acknowledge that human beings as well as some non-human animals experience feelings of attachment towards other people or objects at times, and it seems inevitable that human beings, being thinkers, will try and use the limited vehicle of language to try and organize and explain these phenomena.
I fell in love with a woman at first sight, yes. And we were together for three years until I did something stupid and lost her. It was all my fault.
hmm this is kinda tricky, cause we “think” and percieve is only. that feelin of knowin a person a differ also. maymbe i should just wear better “attuire”? lol if i spelled that right. its possible…im not famaliar with it too much, i think it goes on deeper lvl’s. The problem sometimes we delay to reveal “confirmation”
on the level of mutual attraction yes… on the onesided “i want that one” level yes… on the mutual this is the love of my life from first sight… perhaps but only very rarely and not in most people’s lives. its a strong element of culture to keep the idea alive however. it is out there.
I think you mean attire? (fine clothing)
I see attraction differently so I guess I’ve never experienced such a thing. I’m kinda doing the online thing now but it’s difficult to feel that zap. My expectations are pretty low but we shall see.
yea ithink thats what i mean,thankz
My brain has deconstructed the whole thing into uncaring little compartments
I think what you’re referring to is lust.
…hmm…mmmm…MMMM…no?
I believe in love at first sound. That perfect soft voice does it all.
I believe in love at first “sigh”. When you start sighing it means your heart’s been corrupted
