"love at first sight"

I don't believe in love in first sight. I just don't think it's possible. There's something inherently wrong in falling ass over teakettle for someone you've seen fleetingly. It's the peptide hormones talking, not love.

I subscribe to the school of thought that love comes gradually. Its onset is gradual, as is its departure. Love is something that comes when you realize that somebody really is amazing: personality, charm, looks... the whole package. So many people confuse it with their hormones that it is no wonder it disappears so quickly. Love isn't instant. Love is the enduring affection you have when you realize that you've found the one person you were looking for the whole time.
