WEEKLY DISCUSSION, Let’s Get Talking: Love At First Sight, A Misconception Or A Reality?

blank
The common trope in western Literature-Love At First Sight, in which a person, character, or speaker feels romantic attraction for a stranger on the first sight of them seems to have become a reality in our bigger world.
For many years in real life, people have and continue to claim the experience of this trope. If you have not experienced this before like I have not, you surely must have heard about it or come across someone proclaiming to have experienced it.
In my little world, love is a complex journey made up of a collection of attributes. Love therefore is a collective name for attributes such as kindness, respect, understanding, affection, lust, like, admiration and others. So for love to exist in my world, these attributes must prevail.
If the above are preconditions for love to exist, then how can it be spotted or experienced at first sight? On meeting someone, you can feel few of the attributes, notably attraction and lust, but then how can you immediately secure, experience or predict his/her level of affection, kindness, respect and understanding to be able to fall in love?
To me, Love At First Sight is an illusion, a mere trope that cannot manifest in our REAL lives. However, I do not think the many people claiming to have experienced ‘Love At First Sight’ are mad, I simply think love means a little less to them…In fact, they experience something that seems like love but it is not.
This is just my opinion on the issue of Love At First Sight…What do you think? Have you ever experienced Love At First Sight? Does it really exist? Do you believe in it?

    • I think the concept of love at first sight is overrated with love at first sight you don’t know the other person you don’t know their flaws their strengths or the quirky things about their personality that make them unique and special you don’t know how they express that love. You have nothing go on to make that love real and to me, that is partly what makes love or your relationship special  knowing that because a person loves you, they will support you or make certain sacrifices, etc you don’t get any of that with love at first sight
