Love at first sight?

    Just wondering....Have you ever fell in love at first sight? As in as soon as you spoke to someone you knew they were 'the one'.

    Or did it take you a while?

    Either way, did it last? :D

    Edit By 'Love at first sight', I mean the phrase. Not real love, more lust. :D

    Yes, it lasted 2 minutes. :(

    The feeling left me several seconds after I ejaculated.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,206 ✭✭✭✭B.A._Baracus


    No such thing as love at first sight. Just heavy infatuation - or ... to put it another way ... said person just turns you on so much, in so many ways.


  • Registered Users Posts: 133 ✭✭kflynn


    Nooooo you're all ruining my lovey-dovey mood!:D

    I do agree though, I think that if you spend enough time with anyone you can develop feelings...

    But it would just be nice to hear a love at first sight story :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,456 ✭✭✭astonaidan


    Yep seen a girl in a crowd, thought wow, never in my life had I felt like that, saw her two weeks later and had to ask her out.
    Best two months of my life. wish I hadn't had to leave Australia :(,
    But she will be back in England in 2 weeks time so shes coming to visit in November :D

    I doubt you can really 'love' at first sight, seeing as how you need to get to know the person, and give it time to grow - to build up a bond etc... before you can genuinely say you love a person.

    But in saying that, I was once at a party - I was 15 yrs old.
    3 guys walk in - the last one in caught my attention more so than anyone ever before. Instantly I was infatuated. In my tipsy state I was adamant that I would spend the rest of my life with him.
    It was such a strong feeling - I had never felt that way about anyone before, especially on just meeting them.
    It was more than lust, more than infatuation, but not quite love.

    Yes, I was only 15, and yes I was drunk, but the feeling only grew stronger as the next few months went on, and we became friends with him and his group of friends.

    8 months later, he finally asked me out.
    I am now nearly 28 - we've been together nearly 12 years. Married over 1 year. And have 3 beautiful children.

    No such thing as love at first sight IMO, people just see someone that they are really attracted to.

    Reminds of someone I was going out with years ago, after a few days she was telling me she loved me and expecting me to say it back.

    It takes time to fall in love with someone as you get to know them over the first few months of going out together.

    Stalking at first sight.

    Agree with this. In saying that, from the minute I saw my hubby from a distance back in 1998 I thought he was the most gorgeous man alive! He says he fancied me too straightaway even though it took us a little while to get our acts together & go out with one another!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,177 ✭✭✭Hope O_o


    Had I not experienced Love at First Sight, I would never know what love is.
    He took my breath away each time I saw him for eight years.
    If I had not :mad: effed it up, we would be together in "love at first sight" :) for all time...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,080 ✭✭✭✭Micky Dolenz


    Love is for the weak.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,739 ✭✭✭✭minidazzler


    Nope actual "Love" at first sight is not possible. If you don't know the person at all how can you love them as a person for who they are?

    I have fell in lust in Bar light a lot though. And one time that led to Love.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,177 ✭✭✭Hope O_o


    Love is for the weak.
    :P ...may I be weak for the rest of my days


  • Registered Users Posts: 295 ✭✭shrewd


    do you mean "sight at first love"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 967 ✭✭✭HeyThereDeliah


    What is love? You have to know someone to love them, lust is where it begins love happens after that.

    Love at first sight is only possible if you don't care about personality.

    Otherwise it's just lust.

    But lust actually isn't the worst way to start a relationship, which can lead to love.

    If you've started spouting Latin you've got it bad. That, or you're an unrelenting ponce.

    yep, I was walking along with my friends in town when I was sixteen and saw this stunning fella standing at the traffic lights, he was staring at me all open mouthed and I was staring right back, he shouted at me could he have my number I just laughed more out of the shock of someone shouting at me for my number :) He was about to cross the road and I sent my friend back with my number and we met up the next day in town and just walked around holding hands talking for hours and hours untill I had to go home and he walked me to my bustop and we kissed. Will be together ten years in january a house two children and a few pets under our belt :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,635 ✭✭✭Pumpkinseeds


    I fell in lust at first sight. 15 years later we are still together and very happily married.:D


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,010 ✭✭✭saiint


    fell in lust which led to love
    4 years later
    i wanna burn the bitch *real story*
    still with her though until i get some petrol


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 965 ✭✭✭johnr1


    Didn't believe in it either, but yeah it happened.

    Knew her online and quite a bit about her personality before we met in person, liked all that, and knew we would be suited, but as a jaded 38 yo, I wasn't expecting the BAM !!! She felt it exactly the same, and we're 8 months in now.

    Both of us knew instantly that this was the one, and I told my most sceptical of buddies that week that "That's it, - Im sorted, End of." And it is.

    Pffft....I've falling in love at first sight nearly every night I go out since I've become single again. Although, it's probably less love at first sight and more like love in double vision.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,884 ✭✭✭Eve_Dublin


    Lust at first but not love. I remember it well. Made a massive tit out of myself to get his attention that night, went out with him for 9 months thinking it was love but after breaking up, the only thing I truly missed about him was his willy. Love at first sight couldn't exist.

    I'm sure to this day he still thinks about your massive tit too! :p

    Just the one. A giant massive mound stuck to my chest with a nipple like a beady eye.

    Cyclops nipple is almost as lusty at first sight as the Total Recall triple nipple teaser mentioned earlier in the thread! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,109 ✭✭✭MaxSteele


    I've had a few serious lusts alright, but they eventually faded after a while.

    That's awesome, for a second I thought there was gonna be some 'hilarious' joke at the end but cool to see it was a real story


  • Registered Users Posts: 84 ✭✭TwoBirds


    I've experienced strong infatuation at first conversation, which is probably as close as it gets (realistically). Didn't work out in the long run though.

    Lay off the weed,
    Go out and spread your seed,
    Oreo be be stuck inside, like others of your ilk,
    Staring at Ming, in all his bling,
    Left wondering should you go get more milk.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,538 ✭✭✭flutterflye


    Ha! I just noticed - about 30 people thanked my post.
    I thought I'd get the pi$$ ripped out of me for being so corny! :)

    Reason enough to call it love in my book :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 731 ✭✭✭Butterface


    Not so much love at first sight for me. More like we were friends for 7 years, and we were always in relationships with other people during that time.

    Then at the beginning of summer when for the first time in our friendship, we were both single at the same time.. something clicked. I'd never given any thought to there being an "us" before that moment. But it was definitely more than just the initial lust, and there was a cavalcade of emotions! And our friends said they saw it coming a long time in advance which is nice.

    Don't worry. Love doesn't exist. People fool themselves into thinking they're in love out of pure fear of dying alone.
    Now, use the money you would have spent on a gf on more spliffs and he truly happy :D

    Make that 30 +1 flutter, sometimes when I'm browsing on the mobile I tend to skip longer posts because I have the attention span of a two year old. But that post held my attention from start to finish, brilliant story! :)

    I guess I'd better actually contribute something thread relevant at this stage-

    For me it was when this girl moved into a flat I was staying in, and she was incredible looking, completely took my breath away. A month later we were both getting ready for our birthdays and she had made us a home made pizza. She bent over to slide it into the oven and standing behind her, the legs nearly went out from underneath me! The sight of her shapely bum had me turn to jelly! :D

    We went out that night anyway and had an amazing time, we didn't need any drink at all, we were laughing and joking the whole time. The next few hours will always be a bit of a blur, but we woke up opposite each other in the morning, looked at each other and it was like we were thinking the exact same thing at the exact same time- "Is this your bed or mine?" :D

    Fast forward fifteen years later and plenty of ups and downs, we're eight years married with just the one eight year old boy. I always say we'll have another child as soon as we can afford the first one! :pac:

    It's actually a real chemical reaction in your brain.

    I believe in love at first sight but only for dogs. As in I see a dog and just love him/her.

    As for people, good lord no.
