Love at first sight

This has always been in my mind. "Love at first sight". A term that we have always been hearing. Banyak cerita lovey dovey, tak kisah la omputih ke, melayu ke, telenovela ke, each of them is guilty for spoonfeeding to us about love at first sight.

But wujud ke love at first sight ni? Some people may say it does, some may say it doesn't. As for me, I strongly feel it doesn't. How can a person be in love with another, only by the first glance of them? Cam tak logik pun ada. Sure, you might the feel attracted to a person the first time you saw them, but that's not love. That's like, crush at first sight. If that's the case, I think every single human being pernah rasa that feeling.

And come to think of it, what's there to like when it is love at first sight? Bukankah the first thing you notice about a person is their appearance? So, does that not mean that you're attracted due to their looks? And isn't that the worst reason to fall in love with a person?

Which are you more likely to be in love at first sight?

This?
or

this?

Semua orang tau, that in order to have strong feelings for a person, they must get to know the other, understand each other, let the feelings develop, and see how things go. Orang yang dah kenal 10 tahun pun belum tentu its love, inikan orang yang baru takat nampak.

Tapi kenapa people, teenagers especially, are still in love with the idea of love at first sight? Well, blame the romance comedies we've all watched, songs we've listened. Sure it's fun to watch. Tapi budak-budak hingusan, yang masih di tahap conditioning, definitely will be in fantasies. Tu yang banyak jadi puppy love tu. Pastu, heartbroken, commit suicide. Mmmm... I'm running away from my point, aren't I?

Mamat ni pun satu. I knew I loved you before I met you?? Wtf?? Is that even logic?

Well, easy to say, people have got to lose this idea. This idea that when you're attracted to a person the first time you saw them, you're already in love. Because it's not. It's just lust. Even if you got married to that person, it's still wasn't love. It's just that the attraction made you want to get to know the person better, and coincidentally, both of you have developed feelings throughout the years.

Enough with the fantasies people. The real world ain't that great.

This one is a total exception. This one is sweet.
