I agree. "Love at first sight" is a crock of shit. Anyone who tells you they fell in love at first sight is confused as to what love really is. You can't love someone without knowing them first. Without respecting, admiring, and trusting them. Those things come with time -- not a glance. "Love at first sight" really means: "I wanted to fuck this person right away!" Not love at all.

Thats so cynical! I'd like to believe that there is one soul mate for everyone. There are lots of people close to being perfect for you, but there's only one thats really truly meant to be with you. If I were to meet my one and only I'd like to think that I would know at first sight.

Never beleived in love at first sight, Never thought about Soul mates or any of that, then I met tony and my world changed and was destroyed.... Too long a story.... But never think that theres only one met to be with you, Because it isn't true....

This is a strange thing to say, seeing as you're an atheist. :D I mean, I agree that there is someone out there who is perfect for you (compatibility-wise), and you may find this person incredibly attractive when you first lay eyes on him. But, you have to get to know him before you can say you love him. Otherwise, that ain't love.
