What they call love at first sight is not love.

It's called cathexis.

Love at first sight isn't possible in Nigeria because we got a lot of baboons (naija women) who is just there for your Banana undecided
What can you offer as an individual? undecided

And your obsession with these women who aren't even aware of your existence! It's sickening...

Well, I don't believe in love at first sight. After knacking, see finish would set in. Keeping the feelings alive requires extra efforts from both lovers.

The extra difficult effort from both partners to keep the relationship alive when the spark is dead, is the actual love.

A man is carried away by what he sees. There's nothing like love in first sight.

Come to think, how did I even meet you? First time I met you, the world seemed not to exist, nothing else matters with just the two of us in the cosmos. The world can move as fast as it wants, or it can wait, it is no concern of mine, so long as I have you beside me.

Everything seems to revolve around this person, you dream about them, in the day your thoughts are filled with them. Even when you are alone, you just laugh by yourself when you remember their face or something loving about them. And yes the mushy feelings that comes with love are the most beautiful; that butterfly that flutters in your stomach when you see the one your heart loves and of course your heart does multiple backflips when you just look at the person and you cannot just help it but to thank God for gifting you with this wonderful person of a human. And because you have this person’s love, you consider yourself the most lucky individual on earth.

The relationship progresses after the confession of feelings and profession of love and one day, you wake up from the bed, or halt midway while dicing an onion in the kitchen, and look up to your partner and then ask the question “how did I meet you anyway?”.

This is really funny, because it is legit and real. One minute we are head over heels with someone. The next minute, we cannot wait to have them out of our hair. They become the most annoying individual on earth. If you are in a relationship already you will find this is true. I mean, maybe before you were her knight in shining armour and she was the damsel in distress, but now she is a fierce woman and does not really need your help as she once did. And that seems to irk you a lot.

See, we tend to fall for the perfect image or character of the person we love. There is this ideal picture we have painted as a result of love, we have carved them out and placed them on the epicentre of our minds. We think the person to be flawless; this comes with emotional love though, it tends to blind us and impede our reasoning even though there are glaring evidences right in front of us.

So we go on and love that character in our heads, forgetting they are humans like us and then one day we wake up, viola!! The scales fallen from our eyes, our feet has touched earth again. We are jerked back to reality and then when we look at the love of our lives, we begin to ask ourselves “how on God’s green earth did I even choose this person?”

“Why?” Because we are back to reasoning, we now realise that the breath of the love of our lives, doesn’t smell like strawberries anymore or roses in bloom, rather they stink like that of a goat. We find that their snore even makes us wake up at night to ask them what is happening. We look at them and we are shocked. We do not know what is happening, how we met this person, how to remedy the situation or cope with the changes; Relax, it happens.

If you see getting into a relationship or you want to let yourself love, you can do yourself a favor by letting go of image of a perfect person in order not to be disappointed. I mean getting to know someone and adjusting to that person and their way of life is one hell of a work, but then, you do not want to sit down to cross off all you had on your list about your ideal person.

It is okay to have an idea of the kind of person you want, but what is not okay is you thinking that the ideal man or woman will be prince or princess chamming; and I mean charming in all sense of the word.

By now it should be no news to you that no one is perfect. Everyone is flawed one way or the other. Everyone has that streak which is going to be annoying to you. If you are looking to get a perfect partner, you are not going to see one. In fact, you will have to wait your whole lifetime to get one, and yet you will not see any; I kid you not. So in order not to get disappointed or box yourself in the corner, let go of those perfect pictures in your head, l’ve and love.

Now, this is not going to stop the surprises from popping up in your relationship. It is not going to stop your partner from farting and telling you they have lactose intolerance. Rather, it will make you look up at them and ask “how did I meet you anyway”, and they will shrug, and you will look into their eyes and realize how fortunate you are to have them in your life while you both laugh at each other, indeed, love happens at first sight.

yes, love at first sight is really love, but for those that have eyes but cannot see.
Re: Is Love At First Sight Really Love? by HoneySwag(f): 12:57pm On Nov 25, 2021
Love at first sight isn't love but just an attraction. Love is beyond the physical looks. Is that attraction that makes you make your move as a guy to approach the lady and want to know more about her. Then when sex is being introduced in the beginning of that relationship and the lady is the money monger type, it blinds both partners from getting to know the real characters of each other. Both partners then get fed up of each other, they can't communicate, the relationship becomes boring and it slowly dies. Then heartbreak and hatred, and in the lady's part she ends up feeling used.

Yeah love at first sight is possible . You can meet a person for the first time and they instantly do great justice to some pre-prepared yardstick in your mind and then they like tear down your mind defenses . Although due to the way the society is right now we do a lot of second guessing so its not enough to be what we yen for at first we need constant reaffirmation because of trust issues and many good actors .

Re: Is Love At First Sight Really Love? by Iceberghill(m): 1:08pm On Nov 25, 2021
I’ve read hundreds of novels seen thousands of movies in my life, most of them claiming that love was the center of the universe. That it could heal any damage inside of us. That it was what we needed to survive, I thought they were fools. That love was something fictional, only found in worn pages of a book, and in zee world movies That it was just made up to keep humans full of hope, that it was a lie. But all that changed since I met my BOLUWATIFE. I never thought I would find myself completely and utterly consumed by another until her. She took my hand and led me out of the darkness I was all this years and showed me that, whatever our souls are made of Love is one thing that is powerful to melt it, she once asked me who I love most in the world I now realize its her grin

Sand, rain, plant

I can actually touch God too and feel His touch. God is real. Emotions are real, love hate fear are all as real as u feed them. You only feel the rain because it brain and senses can register and identify it. Someone without a sense of smell, sight, hearing or hypoesthesia or loss of sensitivity to sensory stimuli can tell u that the rain ain't real. What I'm saying is because u can't tune in or believe in God doesn't make Him an illusion. What u don't know u don't know

No, it's a myth. Love when you really know the person and accept what comes with them or compromise for each other.

You think you love that girl? Do you think you still would love her and adore her after going through her Facebook and WhatsApp messages? Can you truly accept what she's done before she met you?

If you can then you love her. If you can't, that's the answer you seek.

You'd be surprised how quickly that love you feel for her can turn to resentment after you discover those things about her past.

Most times that resentment comes from the other person projecting a false perfect image of themselves. From "I don't really do sleepovers but just this once" to you finding out she or he probably cohabited for months or years with different sexual partners at different times.

Love is the closest emotion to hate. It's better when it begins from indifference somewhat to like to fancy then to love. You have less chances of resenting that man or woman that way.
Wisdom. Hmmm

Yes it is.

My ex was love at first sight. I saw him for the first time in church and Immediately he opened smiled I melted tongue.

His immaculate white gap tooth got me. So when he came to me it was an easy catch for him. grin. And yes I loved him up till the time we parted and after we parted. In fact, I used prayers to get him off my mind after I found out he has married.

So, love at first sight really works.

why didn't he marry you
