Was it love at first sight? ❤️

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?

B) Attraction at first sight?

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

    Definitely not! Lol

    We met under unusual circumstances.
    I was next in line for a promotion at work. I interviewed and out of nowhere I was told that the position was no longer available due to a transfer from another area in the company. Needless to say, that ‘transfer’ is now my FH, but I definitely was NOT a fan of him at first due to the circumstances.

    I got promoted to be his peer a few short months later. He ended up training me actually. At first I wasn’t happy to be partnered with him but after being forced to get to know him I realized he was a cool guy.

    We were both seeing other people at the time but we ended up meeting up with each other at several work outings and meeting up after work. A year later he moved again to another department. We stayed in touch and around the same time we both ended our other relationships. (Unrelated) One thing led to another and well, the rest is history!

    Oh my we met when we were in elementary school so I’d say definitely not! He was a bit annoying, bouncing off the walls and all that. I did think he was pretty cute though. We reconnected in our early twenties and pretty much knew we were going to stick together for a while, so I’d say the second time around it was!

    It was definitely love at first sight. He was everything I had been waiting for and I wouldn't trade him for anything in this world!!

    Attraction at first sight. Literally walked down the stairs at college and thought "Omg. Who is that woman?"

    Definitely love at first sight.. We was both young then though so we didn't know what it was. We have known each other for 7 years now!

    Our first meeting verified my interest in him, but it wasn't love at first sight. It developed very quickly as we got to know each other and it keeps getting stronger with every passing day. He is a blessing to me and my daughter. I couldn't ask for a more patient, caring, loving man.

    I liked him prior when we first met but he was with my friend so I couldn't tell him that I liked him. After him and my friend broke up I was wanted to tell him but I was fighting with my ex and then he helped me get out of shell of depression and I was happy again and then I got blinded by other person and didnt realize I had an amazing guy in my life and then he told me I was much more than being used,being locked in the house while that person didn't do anything but mentally abuse me so he saved me from that place also

    When we first met I had this feeling and of course at the time I had no idea what it was. But as time went on we both found out we had the same feeling when we first met and we both realized it was love at first sight. I was about ready to give up on love but fate told me no when he brought my fiancé into my life.

    While I might have denied it to myself, the first time my fiance and I met, the connection, chemistry, and amazing relationship was right there - we have had a very unconventional relationship from the start, and my first time meeting him in person was after a long friendship online, followed by us connecting more personally a few weeks prior. While he was quick to ask me to be his girlfriend and I avoided the question (he'll tell you he asked three times!), by the end of our first weekend together, we had a song that means the world to us (it will be used for our first dance), and said "I love you". Since then, I've grown to love him and our relationship every day - so unknowingly love at first sight? Smiley winking

    NO. lol we were set up by his ex.. I was friends with his ex and him and double dated with them a couple times.. But I was newly single (years later) and wanted nothing to do with relationships. Plus he’s 13 years older than me so it was odd enough but we started hanging out and became friends and I somehow just started falling for him and now I am madly in love with him and happy with where our life is now ❤️

    He was my best friend of 18 years before I decided to let him out of the friend zone! We have quite the love story. My 9 year old daughter was actually his flower girl in his first wedding! We met when we were 14 in high schoeol and have been important part of each other’s lives since.

    We went through it all together....When our friend passed away unexpectedly we were there for each other and grew closer than we ever were. There was a silver lining in a very sad time of our lives. This made me realize that I never want to live without him by my side. ❤️

    It definitely grew. We had very little in common when we first started dating but life threw us some significant curve balls early into the relationship and we were quickly forced to either jump ship or lean on each other during a tough diagnosis and a family tragedy. We had to grow up fast so to speak, and the experience welded us together. We were there for each other when we needed it most and that spoke volumes to me. A pretty face and a good personality were a great start but the way we had each other’s backs during early trials by fire sealed the deal

    B. it was a attraction at first sight. We became each others support system since we were both in a bad relationships. Soon after i became his babysitter for his 2 kids, while he worked. He was divorced not long after, then we moved in together. But as we talked more everyday, the more we fell for each other.

    We had an instant connection!! Instamt spiritual connection I should say. He was exactly what I needed. Iwas scared cause I Knew he was the one and I wasn't sure I was ready for that!! I made him wait 3 years and he patiently did. He changed my life in so many ways and is so good to me!

    For me, it grew over time. I was engaged when we met again after high school (in school I knew of him, just never talked to him). I only ever saw him as a friend, nothing more. Fast forward 8 months to the week of my wedding to my ex, I had a super vivid dream of walking down the isle to my current FH. At that moment I realized I had feelings. Tried to make it work with my ex for 8 months before ending it. I was single for 3 days before we started dating. We have been inseparable for the past 7 years. Our ex's is the only reason we are together today.

    I ditched the girls to hang out with my boys. My fiance is friends with one of my friends. We had fun together, and became friends before we fell in love.
