Was it love at first sight

Pat, on February 7, 2024 at 10:43 AM Posted in Family and Relationships 0 14

Ok , it's almost Valentine's Day!! So here's a question for you ...... was it love at first sight? Did you feel that zing?? Or was it a slow simmer?

For me .... it was neither LOLOLOL After communicating on-line for 3 weeks (yeah, 2 old farts doing on-line dating app Smiley smile ) we met up at a local state park to walk the trails. He was SOOOOOO stinkin shy (even asked if he could hold my hand) After the meet I told my girlfriend it was a once and done kinda date. LOLOL Yeaaahhhhhhh, 8 years later I said "I do" to the most gentle, kindest, loving and caring guy this side of Mother Earth. ~sigh~

    I would definitely say it was lust at first sight lol I remember the first moment I saw him. He walked into my regular bar, and the moment he walked through the door. I nudged my friend and asked “WHO IS THAT?!” 😂

    Definitely not! 😆 He was married to someone else and I just knew him in passing through the volunteer job we both worked at. A few years later, we started working in the same small group and became friends. He and his wife eventually split, and a while later he asked me out. It was a total blindside to me because I’m completely oblivious to flirting, while he thought we’d been mutually flirting for a while. I said no at first but we stayed friends and a few months later we had a conversation of “Um…I think we’ve started dating.” “Yeah, let’s keep doing it.”

    With us, we knew we were super interested. He was such a gentleman and I knew I had to keep seeing him. We met at a BBQ place and bonded. Walked around and played Pokémon Go (neither of us play now) and just enjoyed each other. I’ve had such a bad experience with dating over the years, I knew he was something special but didn’t know how special. ♥️

    We dated 30 years ago and broke up. We both got married to other people. My husband passed away and he has been divorced for 5 years. He found me on facebook and we rekindled our relationship and it is amazing this time around. Now we are engaged!!

    It was neither for me and we also met online. Had great conversation at a Mexican restaurant well after we finished eating. He was fascinated with my natural hair as it was somewhat in an Afro and kept touching it to which it was also almost a one and done lol. That was 4 yrs ago and we are getting married in July!

    For me it was love at first sight. The moment he walked in the room my jaw dropped and I forgot where I was for a bit. For him it was love at first kiss. He told me that he knew that night that I was the one he wanted to be with until the end of time.

    It was love at first sight. When I saw my wife for the first time in person, I knew I was gonna marry her and love her forever.

    It wasn't love at first sight for me. We met in college and he was in my class. The teacher placed us in a group together and he was super quiet. So I went up to him and asked if he was going to talk to me and if not I'm getting in a different group. He told me he was going to talk to me. He said that's when he fell for me. But we didn't get together until 6 years later because he wouldn't stop talking to me on Instagram. Now we see getting married in May of this year.

    It wasn’t love first sight. It was more so of a let me feel this guy out type of thing so I won’t get my hopes up and feelings hurt. When you have encountered nothing but toxic people it’s kinda hard to trust someone. But I see I have found my person.

    It was not love at first sight 😅...my partner and I meet over online gaming where my partner saved me from online bullies! We became best friends way before we even talked about taking the next step! After being besties for a few years we finally admitted that we had feeling for each other and promised even if us as a couple didn't work we'd always be besties, obviously we are still together 😆! We have know each other for nearly a decade and have been together for 5 years, it has not been all sunshine and rainbows but we've been through so much together and our bond has grown and we can't wait for our big day 💖 Was it love at first sight 1

    Not love at first sight. We were both shy and awkward. He walked me to the bus stop after, and then I brought up some Netflix show I saw reciently, and he started talking about it excitedly after saying 1 word answers for the whole date.
    I fell in love after dating for 6 months.
