Is Love At First Sight REAL???????
Posted: 9/14/2005 8:30:27 PM
Lately I have had some real deep discussions and people keep saying when you meet "THE ONE" you will know. Well of course that brings up all the questions! Does everyone have one great love? Will you know when you meet that person? Have you already met that person and screwed it up? I know no one out there can seriously answer these questions, but I really want to know what people think, male and female. Thanks.

Interesting questions to say the least... I bet this thread will go on for an eternity..

Let me see...

No I do not believe everyone has one great love... I think everyone has a whole bunch of potential great loves who all would generate that same overwhelming feeling....

Yes you will know when you meet one of these people... You can tell when it isn't even a consideration if you want to date them again and you can't quite stop thinking about them in between meetings... (The REAL trick is finding someone else who feels exactly the same way.)

Good luck..

Yikes! Hand me a can of worms, huh? I guess I believe anything's possible, so sure, why not? Although, if that's the case, I am one screwed mother--. I don't know for sure, though, whether there is just one for everyone. I'd rather believe we get chances as we go. I mean, we grow throughout our lives, yes? I'm a completely different person than the guy I was with my first girlfriend, and though she was good for me then, we grew apart. Now, having (hopefully) learned some things, I trust I'll meet someone who'll be good for who I am now and have the opportunity to grow together. Keepin' my fingers crossed, as it were.

^^^Hey..what about Me.....yo-hoo over here waving his hand...-------->

What .....am I chop liver?????.lol



...Yes..I do believe in.."The One"...and I'm sad To say..as much as I love Her and always Will..We will never Be,,,,"The One" comes along rarely..some of Us are lucky ...some are Not..for a long time I though the "One" was a Myth..Until I met Her....

Every time I talk to Her every time We chat....A part of Me is Sad that We will never Be,,,

But we carry On..being Friends...and I'm blessed that She still wants to Be in My Life...

To those of You that are lucky enough to find the "One".....cherish them and Love Them..and Be happy....the "One"...does not come along everyday................


There is always "One" that gets away.......

There was a good discussion on this a few days ago. Do the search and you wil be happy you did. Some good stuff

I think it was about "how long to fall in love" or something like that

Sure it is, but that don't mean thats who you will spend the rest of your life with.
Sometimes people grow on people and they last just as long, and they know each other better.
Hope you someday find out.

I hear what Your saying Sammy...it goes with the saying .."It is better to have loved and Lost"..than not at all...."If You You Love someone Let them Go...If they don't come back they met someone else"........................................

There are so many couples out there that file for divorce because they just "fell out of love". Why break up a home to find someone new?

I have to wonder, if there are many loves out there for us (as many people seem to believe), why are we so determined to find THE one? Why not settle for what we have, especially if it's not a horrible arrangement?

I think that you do know when you've met your one and only. But, I also think that many of us choose to ingore it for whatever reason.

Did I make sense? lol

I can't say if Love At First Sight is real or not. I've never experienced it yet. I have definitly been attracted to someone the first time I saw them but for me to really fall for a guy I would have to get to know them a lot better then just knowing them by their looks. I like to believe that there is someone out there who is "The One" for me, or atleast I hope there is. I can't guarantee that i'll fall in love with them immediately but who knows.

I'm a hopeless romantic, i've been inlove once, and i knew i was gonna fall inlove with him the moment he walked in the room. I can't say i loved him right at that moment but i knew i was going to..

everytime i've said, this is the one!!, i get slapped back to reality fast, So it's something i guard against. As for it being real? i am sure there probably is.. though finding is a whole different story, if any one finds out the way, pass it along.

I believe in love at first site, I have experience first hand. My ex fell in love with me at first site pursued me with no end. He even chased me ½ way around the world to be with me, it was a rare sort of love. HOWEVER, falling in love is not the hard part that’s easy, it’s keeping it alive and tending to it that’s the challenge and as Cher said sometimes love just ain enough. You can both love each other with all the passion in the world but sometimes life has it’s own plans.

one great love, yes...
have i met that person and screwed it up, yes i have.... i never said 3 special words.....
i never told her i loved her,

now, 29 years later im still regretting not telling Lyn how much i loved her.

so if you have a person you think the world of, dont let the situation pass,,,, tell them how you feel, or you may end up regretting it for the rest of your life

I think how many times u love depends on your personality and how you handle loss. That’s the catch with love pain is inevitable, nothing is permanent that’s what life is about. I personally don’t think any one person can ever answer that question unless they have had broken heart. For some the pain of a broken heart is to much to handle that they never love again, for others it slides off their back and they bounce right back into the game.

i dont know, i have not met the one, and I dont think you can have love at first sight...you can have lust at first sight and you can have incredible chemistry with someone, but it isnt love.

I do believe that Deja Vue comes from our dreams. Since we grow day by day, the me of the deja vue moment is a different me of the dreaming me of the past. Waking from a dream, I wouldn't recognize myself in the dream because I haven't yet grown my self through the days to that point where the dream becomes a present reality of deja vue. If a person spends many days [years] in a relationship it only natural they would enter your dreams. If some of those dreams came before you meet the person, that person and your feelings for him/her would seem as of for a stranger when you wake from the dream. When you finally meet, the emotions of your days not yet lived but dreamed already spark into something more than the usual deja vue's of I've been here before or I've done this before. Love at first sight

I don't know if I believe in love at first site, but I do believe that very early on, there is either some magic that happens or it doesn't. So I tend to look for that... maybe I'm looking for the wrong thing since those relationships didn't turn out to be 'the one' ???
I just can't see continuing something if I don't feel that... Hopeless romantic that I am, I think I will recognize 'it' when it comes along.
