Attraction at first sight is obviously a thing - anyone can agree on that! Love though is too deep and complex an emotion to burst into existence at a single glimpse of someone no matter what Hollywood may tell us. While I have seen people that made my heart flutter I know, after the moment passes, that it wasn't love.
Yeah, I'm not sure that I believe in it. I believe in "puppy dog" love at first site, but not actual love. You can't accurately gauge someone based just on their looks. But hey, some people have fallen in love at first sight, so maybe I'm looking at people wrongly. 
I know love can be defined in many ways but how could you feel honest love for someone without knowing them? To have that feeling it would need to be more than just a look, wouldn't it?

There is nothing like 'honest love'. Love is just love. You love a good person as well as a bad one. Love is beyond you. You just Love and if your Love is true you turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to your beloved's silliness. On the contrary if you put a condition of 'honest love' on your 'beloved' then your own Love is not True. Remember the old adage? Love her Love her Dog.
So, to love avoid laying 'conditions' on the one you love.
If your Love is True the person you love will most probably not betray you!!
Get going.....fall in Love, sing and dance in abandon!!

Such thing exist? I bet no! It happens that someone who is attracted by someone at first sight fall in love then; but falling in love at first sigh is impossible. For real, you have a feeling at first sight; but trust me it is not love; love is deeper than that!
I agree. I think people take this saying too literally, really.
To me, it doesn't mean love at first sight literally, but just that you can meet someone and enjoy their company and know that you want to spend more time with them.
Love isn't something you just feel immediately. I do believe in lust at first sight, or having a crush, based on someone's looks or the impression you got of them the first time you met. Love is much more complicated than that, though.
I believe in physical attraction at first sight but not love. It takes a lot to ever call it love at first sight. This is where a lot of people fail in their relationship because they believe love is as easy as looking at each other for the first time.
Well if you hear my story its a messed up one.
Well..My love at first sight was in the 7th grade. I saw this girl named Sania and i was obsessed with her.I had a crush on her for like 8 years from now. After high school i started talking with her. I mean we were already good friends but i wanted our friendship to get more closer so i asked her out and she said she wanted some time.One time she got to know that im spilling away our personal secrets to others so we had a very bad fight and now she doesnt even talk to me :'( i atleast want her to be my friend . And she doesnt even regret. I know i have done bad things but memories are left unsettled .

Yes, Yes and Yes.
The very first day that I met my wife, I knew that I would marry her - and she knew that she would marry me. We met at church, and to be honest neither of us 'fancied' the other, but about 2 months later I proposed and she said yes. In the mean time, I had deliberately avoided looking at her, as I did not want our relationship based on what she looked like or any form of 'lust' or fancying her.
Years before, I had also been the victim of 'lust at first sight' and believe that I know the difference.

Love is a decision, where lust is more a 'compulsion'. Hence I can decide to love somebody that I don't know.
I have felt 'lust at first sight' as well as true 'love at first sight'. The first day my wife and I met, we both knew that we would marry the other, although we barely interracted that day. A mere two months later I proposed and she accepted, despite still not knowing much about each other. All credit to God's Holy Spirit for bringing us together and virtually telling us to love each other. I doubt that there could have been a better choice for me.

Well!!! What a question!
I don't think so. It would be lust which I think is stronger because it makes people to mental things. Fans of boy groups for example. They have been known to do mental things.
Whereas love is a caring emotion. Or meant to be.
Unless you spoke to them on the phone for a while and built a relationship before 'meeting' them.
