Because English is messed up... \n\nThere is no egg in eggplant or ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins were not invented in England nor french fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies, while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. And why is it that writers write, but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce, and hammers don't ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So, one moose, 2 meese? One index, two indices? Is cheese the plural of choose? If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? \n\nIn what language do people recite at a play, and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell? Park on driveways and drive on parkways? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell another? When a house burns up, it burns down. You fill in a form by filling it out and an alarm clock goes off by going on. When the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.\n\nAnd why, when I wind up my watch, I start it, but when I wind up this answer, I end it?

Well this is my opinion only i think there is defintly powerful attraction and defintly lust on first sight, but love is a deep emotion and a complex one that truely grows over time, i myself have once thought it was love at first sight such was the power of the attraction at absoulte first sight but it was lust and attraction i certainly could not love this man as the common ground wasnt there and the comon goals for life all very important to build love

When you find true love.Hmm love is something really unexplainable.its a feeling that we feel when we want t love another person. its beyond all our control we cannot explain it. its what makes us human.When you meet ther person for youj then you will realise what love is really about.\n\n\nTrue love? or a lustful kind of love? There is a difference.\n\nTrue love? The world stops around you when you look into the eyes of the one you love. No one else, nothing else seems important, but the connection that is you share with this person. And you can feel it in thier eyes. As if when they stare back into yours, that they are saying without speaking, "I adore you, respect you, desire you, admire you". True love is when you connect on a level that makes you want to do everything you can to make that person happy, and that they do the same in return. It is a powerful feeling, when the world stops around the two of you. You will know it.\n\nLustful kind of love is much different. Its the feeling that omg I have to have that person, they are so very attractive, and that I think I am in love with them. Its a false true love.\n\nYou will feel love for him in time.\nThat love is connection.,YOu can tell him by passing him notes.or leaving him a message.! take it slowly my friend.do that if you are shy.talk to him ,call him,,,relate your feelings towards him.he will start to understand and like you.\n\nremember\n\nBeauty is in the eyes of the beholder

yes..i guess when a person is in love, he/she tends to ask many questions even though it's hard to give an answer.. They say that love  is blind but love is not blind.. it sees more and because it can see more, it is  willing to see less..

People fall in love. Its almost like when you were little and you spun around in circles love is like that dizzy feeling but then u eventually fall...well that would be the end of the relationship cuz when you fall it hurts...now yes people will rise again, and they will move on to other things. But it will never be the same because if that person you "fell" for was really your first love then theres always going to be w/ you and you will always have some feeling for them but you will move on.

I believe that love at first sight exists. I knew there was something special about my husband the moment I saw him. After I had my first date with him, I knew he was the one. I've been with him for 5 years now and happier than ever. Unfortunately, the existence of love at first sight is impossible to prove, as is the existence of God.

it's physical, nothing else. true love means knowing someone and loving them, even with their faults. love at first sight is strictly a physical reaction to appearance.

I think it means that people who are in love do not see the beloved's faults.\n\nFriends are aware of each other's faults, but overlook them.\n\n****\n\nNo, I do not think that if you can see the persons faults, but  overlook them, it means you do not love them.\n\nTrue love should contain elements of friendship, don't you agree?\n\nThe think the "blind" love is the intial infatuation. Mature love is different; wiser, deeper.

Well, love isn't just some invisible thing that's roaming around earth. One thing you have to realize is that you're relying way too much on your eyes. Love isn't just something you have to see with your own eyes. It starts with you. If you want to see love happen in your life, give some. And "no" I'm not talking about sex or any kind of sexual encounters. Those are two separate subjects. Most people rely on their partners to give them true love or what they assume true love is anyways. Chances are that you'll kid yourself with that stragedy. If you ask a series of people, "What is love?", in most cases, they'll start the answer with, "I 'think', it's..." You can't rely on those opinionated answers. True love does exist it's just that some people don't know what it consist of. Many people have this "selfish" theory that love is suppose to be about certain people and what they want. Often people think that true love only exist if their partner is good in bed, or if they look sexy enough, or to sum it up people think that true love can only exist from that "perfect" person that they'll never find. True love can't exist when one doesn't know what it is or how to express it. To exercise true love the main things that you'll need to show is patience, loyality, and compassion. If you use these 3 components and some other good ones to expose true love, you'll be an awesome person to love. So in order to find true love you have to learn to recognize it. Don't worry too much because true love is a lot closer than you think. You just haven't recognized it yet.

Yes. I never thought that "love at first sight" was possible until it happened to me. I figured it as being something made up by people that were in love with love. I'm not sure if there is a scientific explanation for this kind of chemistry, but there is certainly something that happens differently to anyone that experiences this! After 2 1/2 years of making sure it wasn't a fluke, we were married six months ago. He still makes my heart speed up just looking at him!

Amen to Jammin Answer. When some one falls in love everyone in the world doesn't exist but u and the person u are in love with. Don't confuse love with like.

Yes, I do beleive in love at first sight cuz it also applies to friendly love, all of my best friends that I've been close to for years, the first time I saw them, I knew I loved them, I knew we'd be close, and I was right, same thing with my husband, I was 15 and I literally saw him across a crowded room and I saw what my desire for a pertner looked like in the flesh, he told me he was confused about the strong feelings he had for me the first time he saw me too. It is not just lust, it's recognizing your soulmates.

I don't believe there is love at first sight.  I believe there is lust at first sight (initial physical attraction) then love can come later.

No!\n\nIt is not love not just attraction at first sight. \n\ndon't be misguided by those romance novels and movies. there is no such things as love at first sight. look at the high divorce rate in those countries where such novels and movies are from.

Its hard to explain but I will try.  You feel things with your heart, you do things because your heart tells you to and it doesn't matter what your eyes actually see.  Like a person who only likes beautiful people goes blind, then falls in love with someone they would have never looked twice at before, they fall in love with the REAL person and not the looks.

Love it blind, YES, definatly, when I fell in love, I fell in love with a screen! (internet friend), and he's not as good looking as I expected my partener will be, but my feelings for him are CRAZY and overwhelming, he's irresistable...!\nBut I dunno what happens to men when they fall in love, cause I am a girl, but all I can tell you is that they become like KIDS!
