Yes, and it turned out to be a disaster. IMO, "love at first sight" is a fantasy believed to be reality because of an over active imagination. What I mean is you imagine this whole relationship based on an initial feeling and end up with a relationship that only exists in fantasy land. It's kind of like one of those dreams you wake up believing was real. Only do that day after day after day to reinforce the feeling.
I wouldn't say I fell in love at the first sight of her picture. But I was rather awe struck. But when I first met her in person...yeah...I fell and fell hard I guess. Her looks just perfectly fit with her personality, which had me at hello.
When does the period of first sight end? Is it the instant when you realized you have seen them?
If I had to guess I would say that "first sight" probably came from those who were lucky. They were instantly attracted and luckily for them it worked out in the end.
My fiance and I first saw each other in a hallway about 30 feet from each other and it was like we were hit by lightning. The people with each of us just looked at us and could see what happened. Eleven years, four moves and one child later, we are still together.
I'm pretty sure I did once. I met him at the beach, we were both kayaking just off shore with separate groups of people and stopped to chat out beyond the waves. Months later I saw him where he worked. There was an instant weird chemistry and attraction.
For a couple of years on and off we'd run into each other in different places, always the same effect. When we first actually got together he started staying with me immediately and probably didn't leave my house for a month.
For a tumultuous year or so we were a couple, broke up twice and got back together after a period of months each time. But in reality, we were not well-suited for each other as serious grown-up partners despite all of the good things.
We've both moved on but still genuinely have that weird connection. And I'm not going back.
I knew the very first moment I met my wife that she was the one. Literally, the first time she said hello, I thought, "Oh, so this is whom I'm supposed to marry." There was absolutely no question in my mind.
I wouldn't call if love at first sight. I would say you just know. Like somebody opening a door. It was very strange when it happened to me, in a good way.
Successful ove at first sight is not very common, and I think that it works out moreso for men as they are such visually oriented creatures. No man that I had a crush on simply from his looks as ever turned into a boyfriend.
The exterior packaging of a person means nothing to me as a woman, but to most men, it's all important. But they are wired to look for the best receiver of their genetic material. On the other hand, us women need to find a mate that will be a good provider while we raise the kids and run the household. So we have to delve further and go beyond mere good looks and charm.
