 OFFLINE | (This is one of my more favorite relationship questions)
Love at first sight; is it real? Is it more like lust at first sight? Or Infatuation? Is this question actually rather misunderstood based on varying understandings of what 'love' means? Wha Chu Think? Have YOU ever experienced love at first sight, and if so, is the relationship still going? |

One thing I love about you, Scott, is that you're a fountain of really great responses. I can't relate since I don't have children, so let me ask you this: is love at first conception a reality? Or is that too soon? Or could that me more relative to the mother?
The reason I ask that about conception is because in all my adult life I've always felt the presence of what feels like my daughter, and sometimes when I'm really deep into feeling that resonance, one word seems to sum up what I'm experiencing,,, psychosis. Well, that's what a former therapist might have said to me. But I'd call it love. |

OFFLINE | Can Joy and Love be the same thing? Or are these two completely different things? |

Sure. But I hadn't seen them yet.
Then, the first time I saw them, I experienced something magical and overwhelming ... the gap that had existed until that moment. |
