Talk:Love at first sight

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Can't resist some sarcasm. Wikipedia continues to take off and enter mainstream usage. But this article is missing. Blatant. Take you time. No hurry. Don't tell me to do it. I wouldn't know where to begin. Will Wikipedia ever use correct unpatronizing English? Will it ever be a reliable reference for psychological issues? If not, fork those articles to another site. Psychopedia.org? edited by real counsellors etc.

[edit] Examples from history

So, anyone going to finish this? Yes. I am NOT a beliver in this Love at first sight thing. I think you need to get to know the personbefore you can ask them out.

[edit] Meh

Okay considering that said event is unproven and actually defining love has been a life long( and somewhat fruitless) career for thousands of both amateur and professional philosphers (poets, etc) maybe there needs to be alot more use of the word "supposedly" in this article or some similar edit, or maybe just delete the whole thing Eno-Etile 06:45, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Agreed. The article incorrectly assumes that the phenomenon exists. -205.153.156.221 01:17, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Do you believe me if I tell you I've fallen in love with a boy just seeing him, and he has told me the same..Do you believe me if I tell you that as I knew he existed before I had the strange feeling I was going to end up with him? So let the article stay

No. Not to be entirely age discriminant, but by your wording and way of speaking, I'd say let a few years of experience go by to understand the concepts at hand a little better. 69.19.140.49 21:25, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Uncited

I can't believe this article doesn't cite a single article! It is far, far from encyclopedic. Can someone fix this?--Thomas.macmillan 06:30, 15 January 2007 (UTC)It does NOT exist. period.

[edit] I believe

I just found this article, looking up ideas on "love at first sight". I was very surprised at what I found. I must say, I didn't realize such an article existed. So, i will say my part, and people may comment if they wish, of course.

I was with the same man for 6 years, and married for 4 of them. Through a messy divorce process, and attempting to mend a life long series of broken heartedness, I have found my love at first sight. I recently met a man, I won't say where, and I won't say how, but the moment our eyes met, I knew I had found my "missing half". If that means it is "love at first sight", then so be it. It has transformed me, literally over night, into a better, stronger person. I could not imagine being happy without him, or continuing my life without him. So, for all of you who don't believe, or understand "love at first sight", that's your own opinion. For those of us that do, AMEN! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.179.48.140 (talk) 02:51, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
