Is it possible to love somebody at first sight? If not,wht do you think happens at first sight? Secondly,does anyone out there believe in seeking the face of God before finally choosing a marriage partner? Well,whatever anyone thinks and with whatever human effort put in place,I believe strongly that whoever ends up with me in marriage is a product of my prayer and supplications to God. Still searching!

Lust at first sight can happen.

If what you love, is the way they look,
of course.
If you mean real love, it is an opening
in the maze.

yes- I think that is a good way to say it. I think it can be more than lust at first sight because the room full of cute guys always has one that you are just inexplicably drawn to with "the connection" where the attraction is there but also talking to him is so easy and when u look at each other there is an understanding that goes beyond the bump & grind (altho that is there toolaugh )

doesn't happen often, but great when it does

I dont think you can love a stranger, not romantically anyway. So my answer would be no.

I believe the best thing to do is seek God first and people second.

No... you can have infatuation at first sight... but you cant really love someone until you know them... and you can start to love all their little annoying quirks...

well On this I disagree. I know first hand that it is possible I met my wife ( now ex wife) and was completely taken by her and was in love i knew it right away my heart was pounding and I was in love. we met and spent the next 20 hrs together. I asked her to marry me the next day! she said yes and we had 23yrs together and two beautiful Daughters. So yes it is possible!!!!!!

Yes,beautiful story and in fact 23yrs is not a joke! But I wouldn't appreciate any reason for divorce,separation or break-up in marriage,except when it has to do with one's life and faith.

Anything is possible but I don't think probable for most of us!

Hummm each can believe what they want to until it happens to them then they want believe...

Been there done that and had it happen more then once....so yeah I'm a believer..

Was it lust well if that is all it was we were married less then 3 months later and it lasted 11 years...

Just because it does not last a life time does not mean it was not love!!!!bigsmile

I think people can have insight, but not love at first sight.

That is to say, some people may have the instinct to know that they will LOVE The person they are looking at, but I dont think we can actually LOVE anyone that we dont even know(at least not in any significant , intimate, or romantic way).


love at first sight exists only so much as hate at first sight , the mind is powerful and we can convince ourself of an emotion before it has developed,,,,

But I think anytime we talk about true love,marital love should be one of such. And it has been said that true love endures and is sacrificial. Therefore I reason that whatever might be the disagreement between married couples,it shouldn't lead to their separation if it's actually true love in the first place. True love in marriage should be forever despite all odds,it doesnt't wear out,it's not a business contract. It should only take determination of either parties to make it work,though may not be easy but it must be able to overcome the challenges that could cause separation or divorce if it is indeed true love. Real love doesn't fade but always magnetic!

That is thoughtful 'knowing them and start loving 'all' their annoying quirks...' but it takes a love that cannot accommodate separation or divorce to do that. That is the true love in sharp contrast to infatuation!
