love at frist sight dose it really happen?
September 3, 2004 - 05:53 AM

Love, what is love, it is an intense feeling one have for someone that makes thought of the loved one always in that persons tought. there are may sides to what the true meaning of love is, it express caring and charity to the religious class.
Well i am trying to get answers to this puzzling question 'love at frist sight doses it really happen? i have not witness it but i have seen it in movies i became somehow puzzled at its meaning ,perharps i do like to use the term infatuation at frist sight, it rather makes much sense than the former.what really is love?
To me love has to do understaning and finding some something special about the person you have it for. it grows , it dose not spring up at a sight as portaryed by romantic movies and novel. it is something that caught your attention while relating with that person. i may have a diffrent point of view as regards this topic so what have you to say concering it?.

Well ....
September 4, 2004 - 05:02 AM

I think i had that happen to me once..

It was on very first day of high school. I sat in front bench in the classroom, so i was able to see all that were entering (those, with which i will spend 4 years of study) so they come in, one after another, bot men and women. So i saw HER. She immediatelly attracted all of my attention, as she was so beaufiful so i thought there is everything excellent on here, spirit, mind and body.

Anyway, i spend in next years lots of energy and time to get "near here" but failed and i regret my foolishmenss nowadays... Should have done bettersmile

Thats all, SL Katulus

What is Love

To discuse on this subject matter meaningfully, we need to define love.

What is true love? Please, explain!

whoa that's deep...a hard question.....i think love is a spiritual connection, where two people connect at a higher realm, at a soul-level...whether that connection is made in an instance or over a period of time varies i guess

What about if I say God Himself is love and anybody that doesn't know God hardly should that person love anybody either at first sight or not.

Hmmm....

What about if I say I don't believe in God, but I have been in love, and I love my friends and family more than anything in the world? Like I said before, love requires a lot of time and energy. But not God's energy. The effort must come from the people themselves.

i guess we cud say that love means different things to different people....to some people, love is God....to some people love is their friends & family....to some people love at first sight doesn't make sense.....to people who have experienced it, it makes all the sense in the world....so we all have different definitions and opinions about love and love at first sight

I agree it should be called "infatuation at first sight". There are 2 people that stand out in my mind, both of which I have never talked to. The moment I saw both of them I wanted to get to know them. And I could see in their eyes they were intrigued as I was. But I didn't love them. I don't see how it would be possible to love someone whom you know nothing about. Maybe "love at first sight" is 2 people somehow knowing in their hearts that if they got to know each other they could fall in love. Like their souls are reaching for each other, waiting for one to make a move.

But real love requires a lot of time and energy, and is far too complicated to manifest so suddenly. Love at first sight is a nice idea, but I don't think it exists.

Love...great topic.
First as far as defining love, for me personally..love is about friendship, companionship, a partner with which I can share everything and never feel like I have to put on a dog and pony show. The greatest thing is knowing that you are secure with someone, that you can sit in a room, do opposite things and know you are not being ignored and in fact the other person is very intune with every move you make. A lover, someone to hit those highs and lows with you and also someone who knows what you are trying to express verbally or physically when you cannot speak. Now, that is strictly my version..adopt your own smile

As far as love at first sight...hmm, well I thought my husband was attractive, but not love at first sight. An ex whom I spent 4 years between jr. high and h.s. jumping through hoops for I thought I loved at first sight. He stole my breath away everytime I looked at him. I could get lost in his eyes and he had these gorgeous long arms (6'5&quotwink that just wrapped around me..nothing more glorious. Apparently, what is beautiful also hurts...not always, but I never felt I was good enough (even though I was always told otherwise)..I never felt like I compared, I also let his eyes decieve me when his words were saying otherwise. Maybe to a young girl it was love at first sight, but if he taught me anything...I learned not to jump with my heart in hand and my feet in the air; you hit the ground and God it hurts when you do.

So maybe, who knows..maybe it is age, maybe it is trust. But whatever it is, I do not think I possess it at this point; let me know if someone finds a potion! (Not that I need it now smile

Love at first sight is cirmustancial in the sense personally i have not experienced it as such I have shyed away from any situation of that nature.Maybe i would call it cowardice but I have been convinced that love at first sight is when people with equitable thought provaking ideas rarely have an opportunity to meet and their souls,fall in the realm above human feelings,twinkles down for their thoughts and at a moment they cannot face each other(shy) with realism around them.
I think love is a foundation for a better and happy life but if you are not at the right place and having a probable moment then love does not exist.
Great topic keep it up pals.

Love at first sight? No, love as I think it is meant to be, when you've found your soulmate doesn't happen at first sight. How could it? You have to know someone to love them. Love of course is relative, there's family love for siblings/parents which is usually non-sexual (at least, I really strongly recommend that it is non-sexual) or the love that you have when you're with your friends. I mean, I love my friends. I'd do nearly anything for them, if their need was great enough. Not like a 'go jump off a cliff' sort of thing but if they needed it, I'd do it. They're the 'family I choose' so I have the same sort of love for them. Then there's love for your partner (like boyfriend or girlfriend) which is different again. I don't think that any of these can happen at first sight. On first sight, you can only (literally) see a person, not know anything about what they're really like.

Lust at first sight is, however, a totally different thing. I have never met Johnny Depp, only seen him on-screen and let me tell you, he makes one incredibly hot pirate. Never mind the fact that he's forty-odd, married, and has two children...he's still hot.

Oh yeah, by the way, what would you define as first sight? The first meeting with someone (so you'd get to talk to them a bit), the first glimpse of someone...?
