There are different types of love, IMO.

I believe in love at first site--most of my relationships have grown from it, developing into the love that comes from knowing a person. But it was the first moment that made the relationship.

Sorry, God gives us nothing in my world because I don't believe in any of that...cra...I mean stuff.

NDRU said:

I definitely believe in something at first site, whether that's lust or obsession or a even a superficial connection...but that's all it is...imo, of course.

Which is the best lust there is. Letting it all out without even knowing each other is amazing.

You wouldn't have met me, you know?

JustErin said:

It seems like it should be superficial, based on just looking at someone, but I really feel like I can tell a lasting connection right away. Maybe I feel that you can grow to love many types of people and you're willing to make that commitment based on the first impression.

Maybe the question is, is it sight or smell?

All I know is, my love has always happened right away with certain people. Very rarely, but always immediate connections.

Lust at first sight. You can't love someone you know nothing about...unless you're a stalker.

NDRU said:

Thank you for that post!! It makes me feel less crazy and describes perfect how I feel too. Especially the part about the lasting connection.

People are different, for me it is like that.

You are welcome , and how can you wish that to yourself? , believe me that No matter how much you wait , you will find the way to be happy again, it takes time sometimes but it eventually happens, I have been depressed for weeks and sometimes months( better not to disclose the reasons why …LOL ) but I try as much as I can to waste my time on positive things and things I love, Just ignore everything and focus on your life and your health ,because that’s the most important thing .

I know you will find the way

Thank you for your words of encouragement . I hope you are right .

I'm not sure I see it as beautiful, but I'd like to.

I used to. But when it comes to love and relationships I am a bit of a moron.

TheVoid said:

Co-sign.

I think it's inconceivable that there's nobody else on this planet I could be happy with besides my wife, but I can't deny the connection I feel with her, that I felt from my first physical contact with her. I always felt like I knew her completely, like I'd always known her.

One thing I'd like to add: We would be like animals if we wanted to mate with almost anybody crossing our way, but as we seek for more than just a sexual partner (spiritual guidance, trust, getting to know one another and learning from good and bad times, ...) we cannot say that every person would be suitable for us.

But we are human and unique, because we are able to adapt. That is why, whatever you may call them (soulmates, best friends, love, ...) can be found in almost every person, as long as you compromise about something and work on yourself, so that a relationship is successful. There is no such thing as "love at first sight", without you having to work hard for it, because we also change daily, with every new thing we encounter. Either you and your "soulmate" learn to grow together, or the one leaves the other one behind.

But nothing can happen at first sight, expect very strong sexual attraction (usually combination of looks, moves, voice, scent, style and humour). At least that's when I say to myself "oh, I think I'm in love .. with her butt."
