The fairy tale idea of "love at first sight" can be very polarizing, but it has definitely inspired countless romance novels and movies! Let's set the record straight - how did that first meeting go down between you and your fiancé(e)?? Was it... A) Love a first sight? B) Attraction at first...

Was it...

A) Love a first sight?

    We grew to love each other. I told him he wasn’t really “my type” and he told me that he was going to make me fall in love with him... of course I was like 🙄... needless to say, I am head over heels in love with this man and we will be tying the knot July 2020 ☺️☺️☺️

    I hate how corny it sounds, but love at first sight. We met randomly in a bar and ended up spending the entire day/evening together. Then we didn't talk for six months (for reasons), but I couldn't stop thinking about him so I texted him out of the blue, he remembered me, we started talking on the phone for hours every night and texting nonstop all day, and here we are...

    I would call it love at first sight Smiley smile We met in a college class. After class one day, he ran up to me as I was walking and said, "hi!" and introduced himself. Everyday after that he would walk me to my next class. When the semester ended we just said, goodbye, but I couldn't stop thinking about him and we would run into each other on campus all the time. One year later he asked me on a date and we've been inseparable ever since! 5 1/2 years now Smiley heart

    We met online and I had the weirdest feeling when I came across his profile - could not explain it, definitely was not the typical "omg he's hot," but I had to get to know him! When we first met up, I was a little unsure of him, it took me about 4 dates to decide I was really attracted to him (not that he's unattractive at all! but in an unconventional way and not my usual type) but I'm glad I stuck it out - thanks to that inexplicable feeling I had about him. #fate Smiley laugh

    We grew to love each. We were both hesitant we could fall in love again and just started building a friendship to see where it went and love followed it. He is a widower and I have been burned badly in my last few relationships so neither of us was jumping in.

    We grew to love each other. When we first met I was very intrigued because we were in high school (sophomore year) and he was the new kid.. we tried dating the end of that school year and it didn't work out at all.... then he spent the next 1.5 years trying to get close to me again and I kept shutting him down until the first day of senior year at a whole different high school we had the same history class. We've been inseparable since then (almost 5 years) so I'd definitely say we had to grow to love each other.

    I wouldn’t say it was love at first sight, but their was definitely a spark that made me know this was something worth my time. I never was one to go on tons of second and third dates, but we went on our first 4 dates during the first week of dating and it didn’t take long after that for me to know.

    I’d definitely have to say it was attraction at first but as the days went on we grew attached to eachother. He told me he loved me first, but I knew I felt the same. He proposed to me about a week before Easter this year, I’ve never been happier than I am now. The man I’m going to marry is the man of my dreams,& I cannot wait to say “I do”

    I wouldn’t say love at first sight, but it definitely didn’t take long! We clicked the moment we met because we were both just so nervous and awkward that we decided to throw caution to the wind and be ourselves! We ended up having a wonderful time on our first date. Honestly at the end of the night I knew he was going to be very special to me. P.S. we met on tinder! Crazy right?!

    A) Love a first sight?

    B) Attraction at first sight?

    C) Or did your love grow as you got to know each other?

    B... I was at a friends after beach party in the condos where he was living at. Pool/hot tub party. I was chillin in the hot tub and he had just got back from a beach run (🙄 Marines 💁‍♀️)and we made eye contact and his eyes were so piercing to me and his soul was so comforting. He came into the hot tub like he always did after a run and started chatting with my sister (she's always getting the guys-more agressive, I'm more reserved). He said later he only came to the hot tub to talk to the beautiful blonde (me...hehe). We exchanged numbers bc I wanted him to be my trainer.....my lease was up and literally had no where to go (we had been dating for 4mths by now). Said I could stay with him till I found a place....well we ended up finding a place together. He confessed to me later he loved me at first sight, but we both have had horrible relationships/previous marriages) and we both were hesitant on getting serious (ie the L word). I may have said it first, but he felt it first. He almost didn't cont to see me bc of my sisters personality (you are who you hang with thought), but changed his mind when we were always alone together. According to his friends and family, he was NOT like he is now (extremely happy, smiling, selfless, loving etc)...he use to he so bitter, always scoffing at "relationships" and never smiling and swearing off women (I had already sworn off serious relationships lol, I had zero f's...) and just wanted a personal trainer! Who knew 😁😁 I think it was bc I wasn't looking and neither was he....3 years later we are engaged and I swore I wouldn't marry again! LOL

    He was the one to fall first. I was dating a friend of his at the time. That was how we met. We are highschool sweethearts. After his friend cheated on me. He was the one to comfort me and be my shoulder to lean on. We have been together for almost 5 years now and he proposed to me down at the lake of the ozarks.

    I would say it was C, we grew to love each other. We first met in the 7th grade and were friends. We tried dating twice in 8th grade but I was super shy and any time he tried to go on an actual date (the movies) I said no and then broke up with him each time... oops. We then started dating the end of our freshman year for 7 years straight until he proposed to me this June 6, 2018💕
