Not especially. I think you don’t really know someone and if you love them until you get to know them. It can be fairly easy to change your mind about someone once you know who they really are.

I don’t believe you can truly love someone just by looking at them. You may love someone for their looks but their personality may be awful. I think it takes time to love someone.

I don’t believe in it. I think you can find someone attractive at first sight, but I don’t think that you can love someone you don’t know. Part of loving someone is knowing the good and the bad and you can’t love someone when you don’t know anything about them.

No, I don’t believe in love at first sight. I believe in lust at first sight. Loving someone is knowing someone for all that makes them great and all that makes them imperfect and still wanting to hold a relationship with that person. Love is not superficial.

I don’t believe in love at first sight. Feelings have to have time to build, that’s what makes them genuine and real. Otherwise, a person who thinks they’re in love is only attracted to what’s on the surface.

Not real love, you see someone and think there hot but you don’t know who they are or anything about them.

No I think you can like someone when you first see them and find them attractive but you can’t really love someone without knowing who they are.

No, I believe that people have lust at first sight and mistake it for love, and love and lust are not the same thing.

Oh goodness no. You can look at someone and be like ooh dang there’s a hottie I would definitely date them, but what if they are crazy? You don’t know. You could go on a date and have the worst time of your life. Love at first sight is a tad unrealistic.

I do believe in love at first sight. My grandparents met each other when they were both young and knew right away that they were meant for each other. They have been married for almost 60 years. Also, my dad and step mom met and knew that they would get married after the first time meeting each other.

No, I don’t believe in love in general. Love is just a strong chemical feeling we humans have to achieve the most desired mate. Here’s a helpful tips: screw love, don’t get married, work hard, and keep all the money for yourself and your dream vehicle.

As sweet as it sounds, I don’t believe love at first sight is a thing. You can find someone attractive at first sight, but loving them is different. Actually loving someone is knowing snd accepting all the goods and the bads they have to offer, and you can’t get that from the first glance.

I don’t really agree with that. Both my grandparents and my parents fell in love the first time they happened to meet, without really knowing about each other.
