I feel like Ive known him my entire life already and am extremely confused about all of it. I wanted your opinions....do you guys believe in this "love at first sight"? Or even love within the first day? Id like to believe in it but I keep telling myself Im just being naive. Ive just never had this kind of feeling for a person ever. And I mean ever. So I wanted your guys' opinions on this subject.

Love at first sight is a myth. You can't truly love someone you don't know very much about, and certainly not based on looks or superficiality.
However, in your situation, you've been dating him for months and feel very good about the relationship. This isn't what people mean by "love at first sight", so that isn't the question really. The question you REALLY have here is why do you feel so comfortable and attracted and such warm feelings toward him after only a few months (how many months you didn't say).
If it feels good and is reciprocated, then you've picked up on something special here. The only thing you have to be careful of is moving too fast or ignoring red flags that would indicate the relationship is unhealthy.
Just take it slow, spend more time with him doing different things, and see where it goes. By the way, the feelings you say you "weren't supposed to have" during a relationship are exactly the good warm feelings that you should have. Just remember about watching for red flags, and you'll be just fine.
