Love at first site???

Does anyone believe in Love at first sight??? Or that everyone has a soulmate???

Well, I never believed in that "stuff" until I met my second husband. The minute I saw him, I knew he was meant for me. LOL There was just something about him --- his gentle nature, but yet his ruggedness.

I don't know how often it happens, but it DOES happen. So yes, I do believe in it. But I'd sure get to know the person WELL before making any lasting committment!

Best of luck & God bless. Hugs, Lee

Love at first sight, TOTALLY, soulmate, not so much

I believe that love at first sight probably exists. It definitely seems possible although I'm sure that most of the time people claim they experience it, they are mistaken. I don't believe that everyone has a "soulmate" but I do think that anyone can develop a deep relationship on many levels (similar to soulmates) with another person.

No...........

I believe love at first sight!

Thats how I like my guy friend!

<3 <3 <3

Nope I don't believe in love at first. Thats attraction. Real love takes, work, effort, compromise and sacrafice.
Soul mate?? I only felt this once but I was wrong....
It's a nice concept though....

I agree with Shez and Cotton but...I really like that soulmate thing. Someone you spend eternity with? Over many lives/incarnations? Someone who makes you feel complete and never alone and never bored? Yeah, I like that idea. It's too nice an illusion to totally shatter it.
Other than children no, no love at first sight. Like Cotton said, that is attraction...or something. You have to really know someone before you can truly love them...that's just my opinion though.

I am wary of love at first sight. I believe it's a noble, beautiful concept, but very rarely is it true love that comes from it. Not saying it's completely impossible, I'm just healthily skeptical.

I do believe in the concept of a soulmate, and my girlfriend does nothing but solidify that belief more and more on a day to day basis.

From my vantage point, I will say no. I think we confuse "Lust and Like at first sight" for "Love." What I've gained from my romantic relationships is that it takes time (maybe even years) to really get to know someone and truly love them. Even then, what one "feels" and "thinks" is "love" keeps morphing into something less or more as time goes by. Having said this, I did and still do love some of the men who have graced my life, but no longer in a romantic sense. The only thing that is constant is that feelings and situations change with time.

As for everyone having a soul-mate...well, I could say we have many soul-mates who connect with us on many levels: emotional, intellectual, physical, creative, etc. Once upon a time, I thought I was with my one and only soul-mate, but that, too, morphed into something different than what I originally had in mind...I will just leave it at that since he's not here to defend himself. :-)

Nevertheless, I do still believe in love, and the old cliche that "'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all."

Certainly physical attraction, from moderate to severe, at first sight. Love at first sight? A year ago I would have said no, but since I experienced it ... yep, but I think it's rare.

I used to believe in the idea of one soul mate, one man I was meant for and who was meant for me. But now that I'm older, I'm not so sure anymore. But it's a nice idea ..... so where is he?

I'm on board with the idea that love at first sight is prob. Lust at first sight...but there's no telling what that could turn into...one in a million could happen any day and a love at first sight could develop into a soulmate! I once heard that Men fall in love with the Woman they are attracted to, and Women become attracted to the Man they love...
Not a huge fan of the blatant generalization...and the hetero-centeredness of that statement...but it seems to be true for many men and women I've known.
Soooooo...mayhaps love @ first sight is a thing for guys to believe in and soulmate is for the ladies
I never believed in either, but now with my husband, I do believe in soulmates...and if u ask him, he'd probably say it was love at first sight
Ps. Ask me in 20 yrs if I still believe in soulmates...we have been together for "only" 7 years so far...

No; we can thank fairy tales for unrealistic expectations. They never showed prince charmings annoying attributes that could make any princess still love him but not like him, same for the nagging we women do.
