Not so much the love at first sight thing but a powerful connection of the mind and soul. Lets face it we all do not click with everyone............... and I am not talking physical either :))))

A strong attraction, Yes. A strong attachment indicates a personality in need of development. Whether it is physical, mental or spititual, the idea of attachment should be kept under control, at least beyond the first meeting.

yes, most definetly. There are many explanations of this.
One is reincarnation. You have known those people in a past life, therefore you click with them and feel like you have known them forever because you used to know their soul. You dont like someone because you knew them in a past life and had a negative experience with them.
Another way could be discernment. You can feel other peoples spirits and you are attracted to certain people, whereas others you cannot stand.
It is all about the spiritual, like you said, you are not talking physical. That deep connection is a spiritual connection with a person that you have, positive or negative. There are several more theories, I personally believe in reincarnation, but that is just a personal belief.

Yes I met this guy who I had a strong connection with, I know it sounds weird......but when i met him it actually felt like I knew this person, even now as I am writing this, I can still feel the strong weird feeling I have towards him.........He was SO amazing, so sincere, and we connected instantly.....I met this guy in 2005, we would talk for hours, share our thoughts, we would talk talk talk about anything and everything...It wasn't love at first sight or anything...I cant explain what that was...anyways we haven't spoken to each other since, Ive never seen him since, Ive never made that extra effort and neither has he to see each other...but for some reason I cant get him out of my mind even after 2years of not talking.......we didn't date, we just connected..........I always wonder if he felt the same way I did or do..........

Attachment yes, commitment no.
I value learning, and meeting a person implies not knowing
the person. Not knowing the person yields a high potential
for gaining knowledge and insight. Generally speaking,
if the first impression I observe is conservative then
my first impression is to be cautious about trusting
the individual. The reason being that if the individual
is conservative then either they aren't open to being
observed or they are waiting to learn my strategy
so they can try to con me or passively agree with me.
The most appropriate time to learn someone's
general demeanor is when that someone doesn't
know what I consider to be appropriate, and that
time is usually less tainted during the first few
encounters.

I have met some of this planet's MOST awesome people...
I have been lucky enough to feel ultra STRONG,
platonic connections with a handful of folks i've met so far...
Its such a beautiful thing to realize you BOTH feel that way...
You realize you are capable of LOVE and friendship and good will and understanding ALL at once...
Makes you glad to be alive and human...
And im NOT talking sex... im talking souls :) !!
(which may or may NOT include sex... yeh know?)

Everytime I have felt this, I have been wrong. There's been a few instances where I have felt connections to people. I get to know them more and It's quite dissapointing!!
But everytime I haven't had a strong connection to someone - but for some reason have spoken to them, even though they dont necessarily look like I would get along with them, I've gotten along with them really well.
My bf, I wasn't instantly attracted to - and he wouldn't be someone I could see myself with, but we go great together.
My old best friend when we met, he didn't even look like someone I would want to talk to or get along with well. But for some reason I just spoke to him - and we became great friends. (i should have dated him while i had a chance :( )
I don't believe in love at first site for me, for me I only love someone after an amount of time getting to know them.
Long story short, i generally mesh better with people I dont think I will get along well with !!

Yes. That's the way it was when I first met my current bf. It wasn't love at first sight but I certainly felt drawn to him the first time I saw him. As though I knew that this was someone I wanted to get to know better.

No. Because they could just be agreeing with you to get in your pants. Basically you dont know if they are lieing or not. Havent you seen the comedy Something about Mary??
