We've all heard an expressions like these at one pint in our lives; “This is going to sound crazy, but... from the moment I first set eyes on you I haven't been able to stop thinking about you."or even " I knew you were the one for me form the moment I laid my eyes on you." But are these statements really true? I mean the true definition of "love at first sight" is really a strong and immediate attraction to another person based on physical attractiveness, sex appeal, physical arousal, or romantic circumstances. I'd love to believe that love at first sight is real because in a world as cruel as ours we could use something like love at first sight. I know many of you are probably reading this telling me I don't know what I'm talking about saying; " Look here my aunt sally fell in love at first sight and they got married." or "My uncle Bobby here fell in love at first sight and is happily married with 8 kids" And to that I say touche. however I do not believe that love at first sight is real maybe lust at first sight but most definitely not love.
I believe that love is something that comes slowly, with time. I believe that it comes when two people have been together for sometime and are now in a place where they put their own ego and pride aside and are willing to do everything possible to protect and make the other person happy. Love is like trust you don't just start trusting a random stranger it takes time to earn someones trust. For example Say you meet someone on the street, you've never spoken to them never seen them before, do you trust them? I bet all of you are probably thinking "What the hell are you insane! I don't even know them, they could be one of America's most wanted for all I know!" Well yes you've got every right to believe that! You learn to trust people over time. However my issue is what makes some people (well most people) believe that love is a completely different story? Let me tell you this folks love at first sight is not real. Yes it sounds bad, maybe I even tore your fantasy down to the ground but at the end of the day whether you choose to believe me or not love at first sight is not real. There are very few cases where people actually live long happy lives with the person they "fell in love" with at first sight. Most of the people who rushed things and "fell in love at first sight" are now divorced or heart broken. Why would you put yourself and your children (if you have any) through all of that pain that divorce causes just because you want to have a part of this pathetic fairy tail. We live in a cruel cruel world with many horrible people in it. You never know what kind of person you meet on the streets and what type of background they have. Its time to get our heads out of those fairy tale books because what happens in those books stays in the books, we live in reality not a fantasy. Don't get me wrong I have nothing against love i'm just saying that If you want to find love find real love not some false fantasy love.
I hate to be the one that ruins people's dreams but I believe that It is impossible for somebody to physically fall deeply in love with some one they have never associated themselves with. There is a very big difference between becoming attracted to somebody's outer appearance and being truly in love with somebody. Therefore, I reject the fact that love at first sight is true. Love cannot be thrown around because it is far more that an emotion or a feeling, its a state of being. Being in love does not essentially mean thinking of that person nonstop, being attracted to that person. Its a metaphysical connection of the soul. When you love someone you take into account all of their flaws and all of their promising aspects and chose to take them as they are. Love involves acceptance. and by that I mean that you love someone fully not halfheartedly. Love at first sight is impossible, because you don't know who that person is, they don't have a sign with everything about them on it. All you see is the exterior and you can like the way someone looks but you can't love them when you first see them. When you say you love someone you're insinuating that you love what they look like as well as who they are, if you don't know that then you cant love someone. Love without knowledge is not love at all, its lust. Therefore my friends take things slow, don't rush love and don't go falling for every guy or girl you see on the streets!
