A male reader, anonymous, writes (5 January 2009):

I didn't used to believe in it until I it happened to me. Now I'm old enough and experienced enough (28) to know the difference between having a spiritual, intellectual, and emotional connection with some as opposed to just really want to sleep with them, and this was definitely not that. After one date with her, it's like she's in color and everyone else is in black and white. I'm lucky enough to have a lot of very attractive, intelligent, accomplished, ambitious, charismatic female friends to hang out with, but after that one date, it became obvious to me why none of them and I ever got together.

pastfirst agony auntI'd like to believe in it but I think it's more like strong attraction.

The attraction is probably a mixture of both physical and spiritual attraction.

In some cases it may last, but in many cases it doesn't.

My Dad said that from the moment he laid eyes on my mother that she would be the one. Love at 1st sight. There was no doubt my Dad loved Mom during their 50 plus years of marriage...and I have no doubt he waits for her in heaven.

A female reader, Gem86 United Kingdom +, writes (3 January 2009):

Gem86 agony auntPersonally, no I dont. I believe (as some others have said) that it is LUST at first sight. The little butterflies in your tummy come from the sexual attraction to that person, not out of love.

Love is something that can definately grow from this lust, but it takes time, and you have to get to know that person first (flaws, everything).

I hope this helps! :) x

A male reader, pietry Romania +, writes (3 January 2009):

pietry agony auntI completely agree to a_decent_1. Love is something completely different of attraction or a passion. If the person really looks nice but in fact the soul is completely different or something is different then the looks then the "love" is gone.

Love at first site is like judging someone by appearances, in this case loving by appearances.

You might think you love that appearance but in fact love some image you are seeing which is not completely accurate.

I have fall in love after months of feeling nothing in particular for some person and the love lasted for years and is strong even now.

A reader, anonymous, writes (3 January 2009):

A lot depends on the exact definiton. If you see someone you fancy the pants off, and he or she is at the other end of a supermarket aisle, it's more than likely lust at first sight. However, once you've spoken to each other, and there's this giant spark between you and you both are smitten with the other, I suppose that could be love at first conversation. If you combine the two, then yes, there is such a thing as 'love at first sight'!

A male reader, a_decent_1 India +, writes (3 January 2009):

a_decent_1 agony auntNo..

It is actually Disrespect to the term LOVE.. You can get Attracted, obsessed, crushed at First sight but it takes a Lot of time to TRULY LOVE someone..

Love is far more than external beauty.. You obviously get attracted to the outer look of a person on first right..

To LOVE someone, you must accept his shortcomings, failures, bad habits.. You need to know what makes him laugh, what makes him cry.. What he likes, dislikes.. Love is too complicated for just the First Sight..

Love at first sight is actually a crush at first sight which may eventually develop into love later on.. You get the point?

G'day
