At first glance,it was purely a physical attraction,wasn't it? What makes you fall for someone?What makes you think that he/she is the one?IMO,it's the "now" feeling,what about the future feelings?

Not really, no..... when he got out of the car I thought "OMG, he's wearing shorts"!!
Fortunately, he has great legs and his smile was dazzling. He makes me laugh (in fact we are giggling all the time) but it was apparent within a couple of days that he was the nicest man I have ever met...
A year on and he's proved he is the most amazing person I know!
You can keep Orlando Bloom, George C Looney, etc, etc...

I reckon that the greater the physical attraction, the longer it gives the relationship to make excuses and tolerate each others failings, until people either get bored and end it, or decide to settle for what they've got as they're used to things as they are
Someone who makes you laugh sure sounds like a keeper but someone who actually listens to you is by far I don't need Orlando or George, I got BOB
for now.

"...i once had a girl or should i say she once had me..."
well, she just came to my table in an irish bar in helsinki, i allmost dropped from my chair. but i did not know i would fall for years. the look is not everything, but i did.
now i have survived and only thinking her every now and then.
Yes, at first it's a physical (as in appearance) attraction. But in the end, it's how he treats me. It's what he says and does over time. I have to be able to feel we can trust each other and that I(body and soul) can feel safe with him before I can fall in love with him.
I want to say I believe in love at 1st site, but for a lasting, real love, it just takes time. I'm in no hurry.
It started as an email on CS and then went on to private emails and finally several phone calls a day.
It took me awhile to come to realize that maybe this is the one because we have so much in common. I truly hope so and that when we meet later this month, we will want to continue on with the relationship.
If not, then I think we will still remain good friends. So, what more can I ask for?

ladyfingers: It wasn't the physical attraction at all for me.

The initial physical attraction is usually needed to even give someone a chance to get to know them and fall for their personality, I think. physical attaction leads to lust and like. personality leads to love and actually falling.

Then hoe come so many on here have stated they are in "LUVZZZZZZZZZZ" when we do not know if pics are real or not??
I've had the feeling once. It was not a physical attraction. I heard her down stairs in the barracks arguing with the charge of quarters. Her voice was like sweet music to me and I had to know who it was. She was a new soldier being assigned to my company.
As time went by we bumped into each other. I was usually toung tied and felt like I was 16 and back in high school instead of a combat veteran. I was incredibly shy in her presence, and that was not normal for me. Some of my troops started razing me about it.
As good fortune would have it the platoon threw a surprise party on my birthday. (Any excuse to party). I got a birthday kiss from her and it felt like I was hit by a stun gun. I nearly hit the floor. As I recovered from shock, I blurted out you are the one I am meant to be with. (much to the shock of my girl friend that was standing right there). This happened in Feb 83, we were married in July 83. It never changed for me through out our marriage. Her voice remained music to my ears and the sight of her made my heart race. I would have gladly given my life if it would have prolonged hers.

First appearances don't make me fall for the person, but getting to know them does. Love it when someone has lots in common with me.
