Yes it is. 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.

Love at first sight DOES exist... but it is NOT any kind of guarantee that your relationship will or will not work out. Love is something that needs to be cultivated and nutured. Meeting a girl and falling head over heals is no worse a way to start a relationship as any other way, but in the end the success of your relationship will depend on you having compatible styles and values, and a willingness to work hard to develop your relationship. Patience. Understanding. Selflessness. Cooperation. Willingness to compromise and sacrifice. All these things must be possessed by both of you, or it will make no difference whether or not you've known each other for years, or fell in love at the very first sight of one another. Good luck!

No. You are confusing attraction with love.
You are projecting your own interpretations and expectations on a someone you do not know. You are judging this book by its cover. You are thinking with your pants rather than your brain.
There are many women (and men) who are beautiful to look at but psychos when they are in a relationship. Of course, they don't have to be a psycho to not be right for you. She could be the nicest person in the world; but she collects ghastly, big-eyed dolls. Could you really be happy with someone who wants to fill your house with nasty, creepy, little people who are always staring at you?
Keep your eyes open and keep your head in the game - don't let your heart lead you around like you are a balloon on a string.

In my opinion, "love at first sight" is ridiculous, and nothing more than lust. At first sight, you know nothing about the other person. You're going on nothing more than looks and first impression...and first impressions aren't trustworthy, either. I've met some people who made a great first impression, but then turned out to be jerks. You can't have LOVE until you know the other person VERY WELL.

I don't believe you can fall in love at first sight. Its infatuation, a crush right now but that doesn't mean it can't develop into something more. To really love someone you have to know them.

when you fall in love at first sight ,you never know the person personality and if they are trustworthy ,love is blind in this case ..you will know about it later but I dont think that would make any difference to make you stop loving her ...

you don't know love until you know all the not so pleasant habits ... and we all have them. Love at first sight is good enough to bring you together ... let time and experience tell you if it's true love !!!!

You know, Sue is something you've constructed in your mind. Until you can actually get to know her, she's just a notion in your mind.

its all about trusting yourself and your heart. you will know if it is love. and your heart tells you that it is, then it is and trust it. but don't pounce that on her so early because it may scare her away. good luck and i am happy for you.
