Does it exist? or is it just a feeling, is it real or is it lust at first sight? I am pretty sure that most of us have felt it or thought that we have experienced it.
Remember that girl or that guy that you looked at the for the first time and your eyes meet? That instant, that few seconds, that one moment, you sweared to god, your heart just skipped a beat. Can your heart beat any faster, any louder? Can you be any more nervous and excited?
Love at first sight do exist but don't confused it with the term "soul mates". We can fall in love with someone we barely know. Falling in love and loving someone is completely a different thing. You can fall in love and not love the person.
Let's face it real love take time to grow since love is supposed to be unconditional. Love grow when you feel like you've known the person because you feel so comfortable with them, are extremely attracted to them and you get along well.
Love happened when no matter how imperfect that person is, you still love that person no matter what. You accepted the good and the bad in that person and together you will make a better team. Somehow love make you want to be a better person. Love can either break you or make you. Love is the most memorable and also the most painful thing you will ever experience.
Don't confused lust at first sight (physical attractiveness) mixed up with love at first sight. However "lust at first sight" may lead to relationship as well.
So does love at first sight lead to long term relationship? As for me I have to say "no". I have fallen in love with guys before without even knowing too much about the person. Usually love at first sight doesn't last very long. Because after getting to know the person, they are not what you expected. You then fall out of love so fast.
The love that seemed to last is the one that you take your time to get to know the person and learn to love them for who they really are. You can be in love with someone but if there is not much for you go on than what meets the eyes than the love will start to fade.
If you are with someone you truly love for the person that they really are, you will try to make it work and you accept them and love them "as is" and it's a good thing.
You shouldn't have to change someone and should not expect someone to make you happy. In order for relationship with someone to grow and for it to work, it required compromising and understanding.
Just because "love at first sight" have not worked for me, I am sure that there are millions of people out there who are still with someone that they fall in "love at first sight with."
Just like most thing in life though, easy come, easy go. If everything come to us so easily, I am sure we won't be very appreciative of anything in life. You start to take things for granted when it's always at your doorsteps.
One thing I have to say, if you meet someone and you felt that strongly about, just go for it. Don't let the moment slipped away. We're not going to feel like that with everyone we meet. You just gonna have to go for it and take a chance.
Taking chances make life worth living and make it more exciting. I have to admit the feeling of "Love at first sight" is wonderful, even if it only last for a few seconds.
