do you believe that in a matter of minutes just from hearing the person talk to how he/she looks you can fall for them. i have had this happen a while ago. of course when your to shy to say anything dont you get jealous when you see them going out with someone else secretly (even though you never went out with them before) comon havent any of you ever had a secret love for someone but didnt and NEVER did tell them (Im in high school for you peeps wonderin)

True love is from God. I'm a Christian, I believe in God! And for that reason I believe that there is love at first sight. God sometimes maybe lets people (like me) see right away who He intended them to love and marry. Love is different with everyone because we are all different! You can't describe true love for anyone! Everyone's experience of loving or being in love is totally unique. Because we area all unique!
I am so tired of the people that say smugly, "i believe in lust at first sight" because they don't know. I don't have problems with lust, and I have experienced that feeling of "wow, look, there he is, the guy I was created for". I just looked at his eyes from the side and I got that feeling. I wasn't looking at his body at all.
Please believe me- that even if it hasn't happened to you, or never will, it is POSSIBLE
Please do not listen to these other people. Although they mean well, I know personally that there can be real, true, lasting love (not LUST or INFATUATION! Boy am I sick of those dumb words! People just use them to sound grownup and wierd and fancy shmancy! {not to "dis" you other folks, but that's what it seems like to me :)} at first meeting- and yes, even at first sight. As to what it feels like... everyone is totally different. If you think you are in love, and you love someone very much, more than any one else, than you ARE in love- for the time being. You may, who knows, some day, find someone else who you will be able to love even more. Not because you didn't love the first one- you did, as much as you could at the time. But each new person you fall in love with you seem to be able to love more. Who can say whether we are all in love a dozen times in our life, or if we only "really" love one of those people, or if we never "truly" loved any of them? Love is different for every person, at every different time. Sometimes it makes you sad, sometime it makes you happy, sometime insecure, sometimes confident. No one knows. But if you think you're in love, then tell yourself you are and go with your emotions, whether you become mournfully melancholy or exuberantly happy. There is nothing sweeter than feeling something deeply and telling yourself you're in love, whether it's for an hour or a lifetime- or eternity.
I fell in love from first sight with someone I only met once a year ago. I still am. For many reasons in a long story, we can't contact each other, nor do we "date" so there isn't a questions of all that "faithfulness" junk. But I knew at the first second that I was made for him and someday God will see we marry and live happily ever after. Sometime I will type up the whole story and post it on every "love at first sight" page and question and blog in the whole wide internet. Again, I am not saying that love at first sight is the only right kind of love. Maybe you will hate the person you eventually fall in love with! Maybe it will take you years to gradually love them! Who knows? I am not saying that it is the only true kind of love. With some people, it may take a while to fall in love with their soulmate. But love at first sight is so very possible! Sometimes the good Lord is kind enough to show you right away. Like he showed me. The moment I saw him standing there, I knew all about him. His character- how kind and sweet he was, how helpful and patient. And don't say I was judging a book by its cover. Later in the day I met up with him again and talked to him for five hours at that wedding reception. And my first impression- that split second thought of "this is who I was created for and am meant to marry" was strengthened. And he is in my every thought and dream. I don't give a passing thought or glance to anyone else- it's just out of the question. I’ve only seen him only 3 times over the years. It’s been so long. But I still love him! I do! It’s real! I fell in love when I was only 13. But that’s how old Juliet was, and it was love at first sight and no one questions her! No one says “Oh, Juliet was so dumb, she didn’t REALLY love romeo, she just killed herself because she THOUGHT she did”. Why should you say that about me?
There is love at first sight.
Not lust.
Not infatuation.
Not a crush.
Not a passing attraction.
Real, true, lasting, beautiful, perfect love.
Believe.

I don't believe in love at first sight. I do believe in attraction and lust at first sight, but not love. Love is built on a foundation of friendship, and that takes time to build.

I believe what you're talking about is "lust" at first sight. Yes, I have fallen for a person at the first sight but that was only a physical attraction thing. I liked the body and the face and the way she talked. And yes i've been jealous even of her own husband! Everyone I ever had a crush on knew it, even my high school typing teacher.

Love at first sight can happen to people that do not know what the heck is going on. You probably have never been in love so how would you know if you were in love anyway? Lust at first sight makes more sense. Good luck

There is definately love at first sight.
But in high school it may not be love just yet.
I'm not saying you dont know your own feelings though cause I'm in high school and I've felt the same way. You should just try to hint at the girl you like her and see if maybe she likes you. But dont block out the greatness of other girls that like you.

i for one do believe in love at first sight whether its from hearing their voice or whatever!! i use to date a guy like three years ago and when i first saw him i know i was gonna be in love with him, and i was right. but sometimes you can be in a situation where you find someone you would like to be in love with and then try your best to make them feel the same way. and yes i have like someone secretly and got jealous when they went out with someone else but it was my fault because i din't step up and say something!

Yes, I believe in love at first sight even if you have never talked with the person, been friends with them, dated them or told them you like them. It's just one of those things that happens on its own.

No, Love is a pure feeling and just by talking to someone or hearing someone one can't fall in love, it takes time,it might be called attraction.

It can sure happen. My dad ran into a famous actress once and both of them felt something(although my dad is not famous)...like they knew each other from a previous life. But I wouldn\t recommend love at first sight in highschool:)

I have heard if you belive in love at first sight you never stop looking. i have felt that way and had it not work out more than once so... its not destiny thats for sure. generaly for me the relationship just materializes, not nessarily expectedly either.
