Do I ***ever***!! It's happened to me on about eight different occasions, during my lifetime. The last time was several years ago when my adult son (22) and I were riding in a subway train in Moscow. He was standing in front of a door, accidentally lost his balance when riding, and accidentally conked a seated girl (who probably was about 35) on the side of her head with his elbow. Of course, she instantly reacted with anger, which immedately went away when my son and I profusely apologized to her. Our ride continued for about two more minutes to the next station, while I continued to stand directly in front of the girl. During that time, she kept looking up at me, and it became obvious that she liked me. And the feeling was mutual! And she was beautiful!
The next stop was ours, so when the door opened, my son stepped out onto the platform, and I had to follow quickly. The doors on those Russian trains don't stay open very long.
I'd rationalized in my mind, "Well, she probably doesn't speak English, and I know about 10 words of Russian, so... c'est la vie!" And, wanting to say something to her in parting, knowing we'd never see each other again, I said softly to her, "Dosvedonya."
To which she spoke back to me, as I stepped through the doorway and beyond her, forevermore -- "Bye-bye."
"Omigosh!!" I thought to myself. "Maybe she DOES speak English, and now I'll never know!"
So the GREATEST danger in a potential love-at-first-sight situation is the possibility of "passing ships." Do your very BEST **not** to let that happen, as I did!
(For the record, my son was with me, but I was available; I'd already been divorced for years.)

It is absolutely real!! I saw my wife for the very first time in a grocery store, and couldn't get her off of my mind. I tried for three months to find out who she was & where she was from. Here i am 12 yrs later & I love her more than I ever thought I could love anyone. I never believed in love at first sight but she has changed that!

I think love at first sight is real even if you don't quite know it, there's always something about them in your mind and you in theirs, it just not be the first time you see each other when the move is made

One-sided love at first site is quite common, especially among inexperienced adolescents.
But it's quite rare for both the girl and the guy to fall in love with each other at first sight.
Most of the time, one person falls in love. And the other doesn't know how to get rid of him or her.

Well, there may be a physical attraction, but unless you know someone, you can't know whether or not they are worth a damn. Also, for about six or seven months, there is a (brain)chemically-activated attraction involved, so you may lose interest after several months.

Love at first sight is impossible. Love is Blind, therefore, it is impossible
