Is there a love at first sight gene??

So, my sissy and I were talking this week about all the people who say they just “knew” when the met the love of their lives. You know the story….. We saw each other from across the bar and our eyes connected and I told my girlfriend, “I’m gonna marry that man!” Ugh, I think I just frew up a bit in my mouf.
They always go on to say, “He/she just gets me” or “I feel complete when I’m with him!” Is it really possible to “know” when you meet someone that you want to spend the rest of your life with them?? What happens if when you first talk to them, they have a really annoying voice, you gonna put up with that forever??
I’m not trying to discount the relationships that have started like this and are still intact, but do you really think that’s how it went down? Or are they just trying to make a good story. Truth is, they proly met on Match or another dating website and are too embarrassed to talk about it, so they make up some big fat lie of a story to make the rest of us feel like shit for never having that happen to us too!
Is desperation playing into their choice of mates? I think some people want to feel it so bad, they will take anyone, anywhere, anytime. I used to work with a girl like that, every Monday it was the same story…… “He gets me and he thinks I’m so funny!” Bitch please, you are not funny, I work with you, and you’re stupid. And we have a nickname for you and it starts with Crazy… She was such an effin nightmare, if I was a guy I would put a ball gag in her mouf just to shut her the fuck up.
So back to the gene deficiency my sissy and I have. Do we blame our mom?? Or is it that we are much too practical or have been hurt too many times, that we’ve lost the ability believe in love at first sight? Does the amount of hurt you’ve experienced continually jade you to the thought of love at first sight?? Or is it like Santa Clause? We know we get presents, and when we are little and innocent we think we know where they come from, but eventually it’s one big slap in the Christmas morning face! Wake up Junior! Santa doesn’t visit here anymore!!!!!
Okay, so don’t think I’m a bitch because I totally believe in love. I want to find my happily ever after and am certain I will. I just don’t think it’s going to start across a bar gazing into a strangers eyes…..

I don’t think love at first sight exists, but there is definitely connection at first sight–connection that’s more than lust.

Love haters are like fat people. They want to be skinny but can’t. I’ve tried all of those diets and none of them work. I just can’t find any time to exercise. My ankles hurt. Can you bend down and get that for me. I can’t go to that store because they have no electric carts to ride. Beauty is not what is on the outside. If people have a problem with it they can look the other way.
My BEAUTIFUL wife and i have been married going on 20 years. Our Love and affection towards one another is stronger now than it has ever been. Our Love is like fine wine, it gets better every year. How do we do it?
You can find Love at first site, but it doesn’t guarantee that you will stay in Love. So what does guarantee it you ask (or maybe not but I will tell you anyways)? WORK! Should I tell you again (I will)? WORK! She is the most important thing in my life and I am the most important thing in hers. Kids aren’t the most important thing, your spouse should be. Making money, careers, old friends, parents, siblings, your dog, and especially your cat should never I repeat NEVER take precedent over you sweetie.
Fat people and Love haters are very similar in that, if I can’t buy it at Wal-Mart then I must not need it;)
The LAZY cynic will never NEVER win.

Okay, so maybe you misread my post… I never said I hated love, I said I had a hard time believing in love at first sight. Two totally different concepts. I’m very happy you and your lovely wife have been married for 20 years and I agree with you that it must be the most important relationship of all. But I don’t think I’m a love hater, just making an observation my friend! And although you state that beauty isn’t what’s on the outside, I’m sure your wife’s beauty is what attracted you initially and knowing how beautiful she is on the inside is what made that affection grow. So just out of curiosity, was it love at first sight for you? Or did it take some time. Thanks for the comment!

I would like to believe it was Love at first site. I can’t ever imagine not basking in my Best Friends Love. However just like the caterpillar, the beauty is in the ‘what can be’. We to, just like the caterpillar, must put ourselves / our hearts in a state of vulnerability to create the miracle. So do i believe in Love at first site, yes i do. Love at first site is the memory of the creation of something truly beautiful.
