And at least 24005987 times on CS. professor laugh

You know, the last 24005987 times I answered: "Of course not." But this question has finally worn me down (or perhaps driven me temporarily insane?), so this time I'm going to say: "Yes, damn it, it is indeed possible to fall in love with someone upon first sight (but it has to be at least a clear, solid sight, not a mere glimpse, damn it!)!"

I completely and utterly believe it can happen... if you tweak it slightly.

Love is an emotion... you cannot LOVE someone simply by looking at them. Lust at first sight yes.

However, I do believe it is very easy to fall in love with someone extremely quickly. Sometimes, after even only brief communication with someone, you can learn a great deal, and if what you see and hear completely appeals to you, then yes, you can feel you love them.

Whether or not this is love in the truest sense is debatable, but I know from my own experiences that it can happen.

My ex completely bowled me over withn days, and I continued to feel that way about her for the next 4 years until we split. Even after she decided to end it, it took me 8 months to get away from the love I felt for her.

Never once did I question those initial feelings.

Well, very quickly isn't instantly. I don't think anyone can establish any absolute time period for falling love. I'm pretty sure you need to know the person fairly well - otherwise it can't be true that you're falling in love with them (you'd be falling in love with an idea of them). wave wine

That is the truth... but often, the idea of them is a precursor to falling in love with them.

Thus, the heart often finds it hard to distiguish between them.

Yes, it happened to me and my ex husband, but we were teenagers and we did stay together in love for over 25 years.

I really don´t think it happens for older, gone through the mill folk! laugh

Yes...... I fell in love the first time I set eyes on my late husband... I just knew he was the one I would marry!

Sadly he passed away at a very young age, after 5 years of marriage!!

I assure you it's not just in the movies!!!! It can happen for real!
