1. Love at first sight? No, I honestly don't believe in this because I firmly believe that love....true, full, deep, all-encompassing, God-I-want-him kind of love takes time. Desire at first sight or lust or interest or fascination or intrigue...yes, I believe in these things and have felt them. But LOVE....no. Not for me, anyway...certainty doesn't happen in a glance.
2. Soul mates. Interesting. I believe that we can have soulmates but that does not necessarily mean that we are meant to be together. For example, I have a soulmate now (and I feel this with every fiber of my being) who is far away and whose lifestyle and situation will never meld with mine. This does not mean that we aren't really soulmates; it simply means that circumstances will not complete the puzzle for us. But I cannot think of him in any way other than this...he is my soulmate and I love him and connect with him. We just won't be together, that's all. And I am really ok with this. I almost feel that we are better this way, for neither has to change something or give up something for the other. We just care and love and laugh and emote and bond and relate on a plane that is amazingly free and open and it is a wonderful thing. Others might see this as unfulfilling or lacking in something; I simply appreciate the beauty of what he adds to my life....every smile he brings, every thought-provoking comment he offers...it's all a bonus and he enriches my life, aye these many thousands of miles away.
3. Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all? Yes, I think so. I believe so because this is about LOVING, not BEING LOVED by someone. I am glad that I have loved, even though I have experienced tremendous heartbreak when love was no longer enough (as most of us have). But to think that I might have gone through life without loving is just unimaginable to me. What a waste that would be. What a loss to me...and to those who have been on the receiving end of my love (not a conceited comment in the least....don't we all feel special when someone loves us???)

Love at first sight...maybe...but to keep it going takes work!

Soul mates...each of our souls has a vibe. Some vibes together create beautiful music. Others might sound like techno music...fun for a while and then just annoying.

Loved and lost all the way...We are not beings who were created to live life alone.

Just my two, three cents in the matter.

1. It is highly possible. Just not for me. I agree with the "lust" comment, however.

2. Sure. I've met three or four thus far. I guess it's not permanent.

3. ABSOLUTELY. Yes, I feel kind of strongly about that one.

1. No. I don’t think it’s possible to love someone that you have no idea who he or she is right off the bat.

2. No. relationships are hard these days. You have to work it in order for it to work.

3. That’s an unrealistic question. Rather you like it or not, the first people or person we fall in love with is our parents.

I don't believe in love at first sight.
I believe you grow into love.
That takes time and has a lot more to do with the person than with their appearance.

I think that you can feel so incredibly close to someone and develop such a unique and special bond that you can convince your self they are your soul mate if you choose.

Absolutely better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
If that were not so these dating sights would have no participants over the age of 30.

1. The first is the concept of love at first sight. Do you think its possible? Please explain.
~ I believe there are certain, different levels of love... It's sometimes like being in "love" with the outer shell, so to speak. I think it could be possible, for some, maybe...

2. The second deals with soul mates. Do you believe that such thing exists in which two people who are meant to be together? Your opinions are welcome.
~ I have mixed feelings about this... leaning more towards... yes.

3. Is it better to have loved and lost than not to have loved at all? Think about it.
~ Live, love and learn...
