Love at First Sight

by Daniel Chiam


I was once a believer, had my moment and now I pretty much moved on. I'm sure there is people out there with a success story about falling in love at first sight, got married, have kids and still live happily together. I wish I was one of those people, but not today.

My brother said, love at first sight is pretty much one sided. We are the one with the strong feeling, and the one we fall in love with is pretty much questions mark. Well, falling in love is the easy part, whatever comes after that, is petty much the up hill climb or down hill fall. 

If no action was taken, it would remain as a mere temporary affection for someone. Questions that has no answers. Feeling that has no response. If you choose to love someone secretly, I would tell you that it is not fun at all. It will cause more heartache rather than happy moment. A path that I strongly wouldn't suggest anyone to choose. *Sigh*

Well, if you really think that person is the one, and you can see a future together, then the best way to go is to pursue your happiness. Get to know them, make friend, be a close friend, get together as a couple, propose, get married and write a post about how the person you married is your love at first sight, haha.

I don't know how to write the second part positively. How to tell people that it is something worth to be cherish, that your infatuation for someone is worth taking the risk and just go for it. I don't have the conviction to say so. My story is pretty much going down hill, where reality hits hard and I have to live with it.

Anyway, that's another different story to tell.

Love at first sight, to me, it can happened to everyone but it would not always turned out right for all of us. It's not a feeling to be avoid, but rather it's a feeling that should be embrace and to just experience it to the fullest. Whatever the outcome of your love story, it is still a life experience that's worth the moment of your time on earth.

  6. Awww... letting out your soft side eh ;)

    I believe in love at first sight, but of course, whatever happens next may not be a happy ending... which is, most of the time.

    Whatever it is, I believe that love is indeed a wonderful thing. But if love gets in the way of your freedom then it's not worth it. Friends and family are way more important than one relationship.

    I also don't believe that we are destined for just one person. We can be matched with anyone, we just need to work hard on the relationship, that's all.

    Na ok apa sia cakap ni LOL.

    Your story is not going down the hill, bro. It's just an upgrade. Do tell the person you like her a lot, and even if it doesn't work out. It will only make you stronger. That I am sure.

    Okay enough okthxbai wakakaa.

  7. I remember when i was in Uni, a senior confessed to me that he had this "Love at the first sight" moment. I laughed him off, but he kept telling me that the feeling's strong. Went out for few dinners before he got dumped.

    ur brother was right, this kind of love is indeed one sided.it sounded like easy come easy go kinda thing if you continue to nurture it...

    love, i believe, is something that you just gotta build and cement in heart thru time...

  10. You sounded like someone who is in love! :P
    Hmmm..I never experienced that. I mean, my relationships didn't begin in a typical way. I'm a cautious person. It takes time for me to commit in a relationship, I never hurry. I usually begin with kawan2 dulu. kalau suda ngam, baru declare..

  12. My hubs and I, it wasnt love at first sight. He loathed me back then. I pursued him. He ran further away. I did not give up. Now.. He's safely tucked in my trap! *evil laugh*

    Go for it Daniel. There is nothing to lose but a whole lot more to gain :)
