I don't. I believe you have to know a person pretty well before you fall truly and madly in love.
I don't either.
I believe there may be immediate chemistry......and I believe there may be immediate attraction.....but love takes time.

Yeah, at least 20 to 30 minutes. (//forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/13.gif)
[img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/more/bigs/c008.gif" border=0] I suppose there are exceptions to every rule ?
Hmm. I vote for a photo of TB here.
I see love as this
first you go oh she's a hottie
then you are like oh I like her
then its I can't get her out of my mind
then its gawd stop staring at her she'll think you're weird
then I ask somebody if she's single
she's single
oh boy
settle down settle down
I say hey
she goes hi
I sweat buckets
I faint
she laughs
I ask her out
anvil hits me on my head
she says yes
I faint again
and do I'm the king of the world thing
I believe there's got to be some sort of physical attraction at first. Depending on the guy and the chemistry...... but mostly I believe in knowing a person before falling in love. I think women are more clued in to the emotions and guys are, well, guys are more visual.
lol I got turned on by this one girl in a political science class. She gave this huge speech on feminism and I went holy moly I found myself a future girlfriend lol. I like activists hehe.
Oh ah..... politcal fetish, SD?
well that would be the ideal girlfriend for me. Somebody who is just as political or a girl who isn't the 'talker' stereo type because I can out talk anyone on the planet. Like those commericals of the guy just sitting there and the girl is talking non stop. I'm the girl, I talk and talk and talk and talk until I go hoarse.

Time chiefly affects one aspect of "Love" as a whole, it affects the caring part.

i believe in lust at first sight.
[FONT color=#bf00bf]It's rare. But I believe it exists.[/FONT]
[FONT color=#bf00bf][/FONT]
[FONT color=#bf00bf]A mental state of neutrality would be the only prequisite. [/FONT]
[FONT color=#bf00bf][/FONT]
[FONT color=#bf00bf]When you first see the other person you're neutral - you haven't met the person yet, you don't know anything about them... so impressions come easier. [/FONT]
[FONT color=#bf00bf][/FONT]
[FONT color=#bf00bf]Usually the very first impressions are those that come from the subconscious. And subconscious is the part that KNOWS all about your compatibility and future prospects with the other person. [/FONT]
[FONT color=#bf00bf][/FONT]
[FONT color=#bf00bf]One must be calm to pick up those very first impressions. That's why I say it's rare because we're conditioned to repress all info that does not come from the rational mind. [/FONT]
[FONT color=#bf00bf][/FONT]
[FONT color=#bf00bf]Consequently I also believe 99.9% of the time what's perceived as love at first sight, is just lust in disguise. [/FONT][A onclick="addImg('icon/509.gif')" href="jvascript:void(0)"][FONT color=#bf00bf](//vny!://www.discovervancouver.com/forum/icon/509.gif)[/FONT][/A]
n...I don't believe in LAFS. Lust in disquise is what it is. Takes time and attention to cultivate a true love.
My b/f noticed me first at the very beginning. He told me that it was "love at first sight." I noticed him too, sooner or later. When our eyes met for the very first time, I knew that there was something special between him and I. I felt like I had to get to know him and he felt the same way as well. Love at first sight has to happen when both parties feel. Him and I created the feeling of "love" at first sight. My two cents.
mine discovered me...um...actually...I saw him...and struck up a conversation..he snubbed me...then proceeded to come in to my workplace till he knew enough about me to do an invite of sorts...it has been over 3 years now.
Hey, Pitbul. Same here, we've been together for more than 3 years going for 3.5 now. You guys met each other through work? How did you guys started talking and such? I love hearing how couples first met. Verrrry interesting and super sweet. :)
he is from the eastcoast. He came here for a visit...came through my workplace...never forgot me. When I talked to him after...and he snubbed me...he figured that I was too good for him and that I wouldn't ever give him the time of day...then...came through about a wk or 2 later...everyday! LOL...I wrote my number on the back of his receipt because he said that he kept all his receipts...and LOL..that was the first one that he lost!! LOL..had to be pretty upfront after that.
awwwww....that is soooo sweeeeet....i find that that little bit of "clumsiness" in a man very attractive....shows vulnerability... that's so cute. :)
LOL...clumsiness is his business...LOL...he is a mental clutz at heart and become very frustrating for me...love him anyways. He is such a good person that it drives me nuts to hear anyone else dogging him. Yeah....I have found that the nice person finishes last...as the haters come outta the woodworks hating cause they can't play the game as well.
My guy is the same way! And yes, so true about nice guys finishing last thingee.....
LOL..yeah...mine is a nice guy..but don't piss him off! LOL..found that one out when we went out one night and my trouble making female friend got hit by a guy...my bf went bonkers...then so did I! LOL..ain't called pitbull in real life for nothing.
He stands up for others, that's awesome. He sounds like a definite keeper ms. pitbul :) And sounds like he makes you happy......most importantly
LOL...he has his moments. LOL...actually we hit a really rough spot at christmas..we are still trying to pick up the pieces...we both got the winter blues.
Sadly i Do not believe in love at all...
possibly you may one day orik..one day
lust at first sight. Thats what the tingling in the loins when you see a hottie means. Not love.
Its initial attraction at first sight. You become attracted to the person and they become initially attracted to you. Then you've got to build on that. So its not really love at first sight, but initial attraction that causes any relationship. It becomes 'love' when you say 'hey, I'm really starting to like being around this person'.
...or when you start thinking about their happiness more than your own.
I like to think of it as being happy together.
