“I don’t believe in love at first sight. It lacks hindsight, its lust. No such thing exists and its failure of judgement. One needs to think straight and learn to study the person before you even think of believing in love”.
“How can you love someone before you even know the person. This is what we used to call in primary school ‘it can’t’, when asked by the maths teacher 2 – 3. Its just impossible and will implode in the so near future”.
“It would be mainly out of greed rather than anything else. To me its more of lust than love”.
These are some of the various reaponses i got from asking a number of people, unfortunately women. Fortunately all guys i asked they said they believe in love at first sight. Can you blame them.
My own version.
I do believe in love at first sight. It is that magnetic instant feeling you have when you first saw him/her. That sudden blood rush, adrenaline pumping. That caricature at the back of your mind.
That instant feeling that makes you rehearse your opening line. Your most precious opening statement. As most guys believe “if you make her laugh you halfway through”.
Im not quite sure if you can lust for something you don’t like. “Friendship at first sight, like love at first sight, is said to be the only truth” – Herman Melville
Example 1
As she pushed her trolley in the supermarket, he prepared his opening line very well.
.
.
“So what do you do?”
She was a Markerting Executive at this top telecomms company. He said he was a student. He didn’t waste time to say how he felt for her.
Loser the girl thought to herself
Jackpot the guy thought to himself
Example 2
As she pushed her trolley in the supermarket, he prepared his opening line very well.
.
.
“So what do you do?”
He was a Manager at a local hotel. She said she is a student. He didn’t waste time to say how he felt for her.
Jackpot thought the girl to herself
‘Chinamira’ – gold digger thought the guy to himself
Example 3
As she pushed her trolley in the supermarket, he prepared his opening line very well.
.
.
“So what do you do?”
He said he doesn’t work and she said she too was home. Job hunting.He didn’t waste time to say how he felt for her.
I love you too she thought to herself
She picked up the Sunday Mail only to discover that he is infact CEO of a listed company.
The 3 examples best illustrate my answer. They are all the same but with different outcomes. Love is what you feel first time when you are approached. First impressions last. The other examples’ outcomes were determined after the so called “knowing you first”. No one believes in Love at first sight, until that special person comes along and steals your heart.
In conclusion “The only true love is love at first sight, second sight dispels it”, or if you don’t believe in love at first sight, should I walk again

I do. I believe in it. I remember a man walking up to me and he said Hi to me from nowhere. I turned and boom. My heart Just lost it. Okay I’m a romantic. I ended up dating this man though. It was awesome. Ahhh… so I believe it exists. And it was the about how he looked or anything. He just got me at first sight. He thinks I bewitched him to this day. But we not together anymore. Lol

To be honest, I don’t think there’s something like Love at First Sight…..well, for me, that is. I don’t remember ever loving someone the first time I saw them. I might have liked the way the looked, their car (lol) or wanted to take my clothes off for them without them even saying a word but Love? Not really. It’s all lust.
I have however fallen in love in some record breaking times lol……so say love at 3rd sight? Yes!
I really enjoyed reading this! Keep writing! 🙂
