For me personally it has happened both ways. I've had a relationship that started as friendship, and I believed that this is the only way that a real relationship can exist and last - through knowing each other first.
But then this happened. I totally didn't believe in that *love at first sight* stuff. But it stroke me and it was totally unexpected. I've never believed that you can be so attracted to a person without even knowing their name, and on condition that you hardly saw them. You've never seen them, you don't know what they do, their name - all these things you don't care about. And you also don't know why you picked exactly this person, there might have been two or three guys in theis group but you didn't see them. How this that happened? I cannot explain it. I'll just point out that after I get to know him he turned out to be a great person - and exactly for me. I don't know how my eyes fell on him, but I can say that i knew nothing about him at first.
So, I must admit that this thing exists. And I don't know if it's always shared feeling, but we should not lose hope. Love is very inspiring feeling and we should keep it as long as we can. of course, perhaps, relationships based on mutual agreement and friendship have more chance, but let's give chance to infatuation too.
Anyone here agrees?

I believe in love at first sight because the moment my mum saw my dad she knew nobody could ever fill his place. There's no greater proof I can have that it exists than my own parents. Love at first sight doesn't necessarily mean you are loving a person because they are just good-looking or something. It's like you feel a connection with them from the minute you meet them.
However that's not the only way people can fall in love, there are other ways, like if you're with someone and feel a growing affection for them over time until finally you know each other inside-out and are totally committed. The When-Harry-Met-Sally type love. It doesn't make it any less true. There's other kinds too I expect. Being only 16 I don't know much about love first-hand!

People confuse infatuation and lust with love.You have to know someone before you can really love them.
