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?

    Just asked FH and he said it was love at first sight. I'd say it was more attraction at first sight for me but I fell in love very quickly after. We were both totally playing games for like a month, but once we were honest with ourselves and each other it was just such an obvious thing that we loved eachother and needed to be together.

    It was a year after we met that I officially fell in love with him but he didn't know it. Tragedy struck in my family as my grandmother's house was burning down and he stayed up for hours (until almost 3am) to comfort me. And I've always had a crush on him to begin with but that was the night I knew I loved him. Unfortunately it took 3 years later for him to finally ask me out. I'm not quite sure when he fell in love with me but that was without a doubt my moment I fell in love with him.


    And how he proposed was amazing! He made a fake email saying he had to fill out paperwork at the place we first met. But when we got there it was late at night around 10:30. I didn't think the people were going to answer but before I even made it 5 steps out of the car he spun me around got down on one knee and said "I want our next chapter of our lives where our first one began." I cried for the next hour. But he is definitely the love of my life. I cannot live without him.♡♡♡

    It wasn't love at first sight, but it was definitely close. We hit it off right away, and spent the first night we met talking all night. We really liked each other immediately, and I just felt different toward him then I had felt toward anyone else of my life.

    Our first year was a bit rocky, and it took him a while to learn how to trust me, but he kept coming back to me too. We definitely had that "spark" from the start, as my friends would constantly tell me.

    Definitely option c. When we were in college, he worked at a gas station and I worked at the fast food restaurant connected to the gas station. He asked me out on a date and it didn’t really go well. I wasn’t really interested. It was awkward working next door for a while but we eventually became friends. Fast forward 5 years later and I started to get a crush on him but I was having fun being single after getting out of a crappy relationship. We started hanging out outside of work and it got to the point where I couldn’t NOT be with him. We started dating and I knew right away he was The One.

    Love grew stronger as we got to know one another.

    We went to high school together but never thought more then friends I had a crush but never though he would feel the same, until 6 years after high school when we reunited in our home town and from there on we have been together, making amazing memories and had a beautiful baby girl a day after his birthday.

    Me and my fiancé we grew up together around the same neighborhood. It was just good timing how we met back up 20+ years later. My fiancé always had a crush on me when we were kids. So to see him again it was love at first sight. Smiley heart Smiley ring Smiley love

    I met him first as a freshman in highschool. We were friends but he was just a typical highschool boy to me. In college he moved away and would not leave me alone! 3 years ago something just clicked and we went from friends to boyfriend and girlfriend. We started our relationship with me saying how broke I was and him saying marry me and you won't be. I knew we weren't going to marry right away but it was gonna happen someday. I love that man for sure 😍

    I would say attraction first. We met when we were 16 in our Geometry class. He was and still is quiet and standoffish, which is hard to believe considering he was a football player that had an annoying posse of "talented" individuals that had a tendency to follow him around. He is hard to miss, he was 6'6, fine as heck, all dark and ripped from football and the only boy I knew who had a full beard, so yea he caught my attention in a heart beat. Anyways, when we really started talking, I fell hard. He has been the best friend a girl could ask for these last 5 years

    We met on an online social site and we talked for a while before meeting up and had plenty to talk about. He was such a gentlemen and we could talk forever! (lol) It grew as we got to know each other. We liked what we saw on the outside, but since we have both been through some superficial relationships we took it slow. Our first kiss was on the boardwalk in Myrtle Beach at night looking at the ocean. I live by the beach but not often do I go, but this I will always remember. Now, after all this time I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with that man!

    A and C ... I knew I loved him but I didn't know why... I had a lot of problems with men when I was growing up and I learned he wasn't like them at all pretty fast. I loved him more everyday. We've been together now for 3years and engaged but cause we are on SSI we are trying to figure out what to do I've always wanted to work but my family was always holding me back so now I'm going to try and get a job.

    Attraction at first sight.
    I was bartending at a restaurant, and he came in one evening. He sat at the bar because he was alone and didn't want to take up a table. We slowly got to know each other. He finally asked for my number after 6 months.
    We went on our first date, and it lasted 13 hours. We just sat in his truck and talked after the movie.
    After dating for 7 1/2 yrs, he finally proposed. Now we're planning the wedding and couldn't be happier.

    Yeah, just as long as being with the person makes you better than when you're alone.

    He was the pilot on my trip and I was the flight attendant. We flirted for 2 days and even had lunch together at the layover. After the trip we took the train home together from the airport and realized we lived one stop away from each other. We exchanged numbers and spent all summer together before I realized I loved him. 7 years later we’re tying the knot!

    I guess who you could say it was love at first sight. Like most young couples now a days, we met on tinder. I was so nervous to meet anyone on one of these sites. But the fair was in town and we decided to meet there for our first date. Our date ended a little early due to him not feeling very well. I just thought it may not have been for him. But the very next day he called me back and asked to take me out again! I knew then that this was something special. We spent every day together after that. Although it took us a year, yes a WHOLE year, to tell each other we loved each other, We definitely loved each other long before then. We couldn’t stay away from each other. Now 4 years later we are engaged to be married ❤️ I definitely love this man with all my heart and more.
