I kinda know where the OP is coming from.

I was working for a company that makes slogans for greeting cards a few years ago. Something just to pay the bills as I tried to make it as an architect. Anyway, this girl started working as a secretary in the office and from the moment she walked in I fell in love. She just had this real "cool" vibe about her, was interested into the same music I was (Smiths etc) was just well....perfect.

I was shy at first towards her, but it all came to a head at a staff karaoke party when my drunken friend let slip that I fancied her. I was mortified, until the following Monday in work she kissed me in the photocopying room. We then embarked on a whirlwind romance for over a year. I'll never forget the great day we had in IKEA.

Long story short she broke up with me citing that she wasn't looking for anything serious. I wallowed in self-pity for a few weeks until I bumped into her at a workmate's wedding, where she invited me to a house party, which turned out to be her engagement party. I was heartbroken.

Anyway, it inspired me to pursue my architecture career, not to let love hold me back etc. However, I was waiting to be interviewed by a top architecture firm yesterday when a very attractive girl also awaiting to be interviewed for the same job caught my fancy. I asked her out for a coffee afterwards and she said yes! I think I may be in love....

aaaaawwwww

I have news for you pal...

Seriously op grow a pair and send her a message. She said she didn't want to go out with you because she just broke up with her boyfriend well, it's been a year. Message her and ask if she wants to hook up.

Thanks, I've tried but she only offered me her friendship and I know she is not with anyone at the moment.

As opposed to a sexual ,lustful attraction ? Yes... I have .

I tend to departmentalize feelings and emotions anyway .:cool:

Not love as such but you can't mistake chemistry and when it's right, you know it instantly.

Brinimartini · 10-05-2012 05:40PM

I once spotted a cream cake in a bakers window and it was love at first sight

The fire in a chemistry lab that I was conducting experiments in proved otherwise.:(

You come across as being way too polite and nice.

If/when you meet up with her you need to treat her badly. Be as rude as possible, tell her she looks awful, slap her around a bit, etc.

Bitches be lovin' that sh1t.

Princess Peach · 10-05-2012 05:51PM

Yeah, he was Australian and it lasted about 6 days and took me months to get over.

So young and dramatic.

I don't believe in it. You can for sure be attracted to someone right away, and when you spend time with them get to love them and maybe believe it was love at first sight, but I don't think you can ever love someone you don't know.

karaokeman · 10-05-2012 08:56PM

The amount of people who meet lovely women on holidays:rolleyes:.

Anyway no I don't believe in love at first sight, but maybe I will if it ever happens to yours truly.

I didn't believe in "love at first sight" until it happened to me...and now I wonder how I ever settled for less.

I met this beautiful Vietnamese girl in the bar in Berlin when I was on holiday. Turns out she was there on holiday and she is living in Dublin. We chatted for hours that evening. The morning after, we spent a few hours sightseeing together around Berlin. I changed my return flight to be on the same flight back to Dublin with her and I wished It was a long haul flight. It was one of my best, happiest holiday. I found myself thinking of her all the time after that, I missed her voice, smile, I missed to look into her big beautiful brown eyes again. Sadly I couldn't get a date with her after that because she just broke up with her boyfriend. I've found myself checking her fiend's Facebook just to see a photo of her, my heart melts. Almost a year gone by, I've been on different dates but I never feel the same. I'm in my late 20s, I am grateful for everything I've done and achieved in my life but I wonder if I'll ever have the same feeling for someone like that again. So I believe, I fell in love at first sight, do you?

jesus man, did your balls drop off or something. First dont facebook stalk or try or contact her. Just get on with your life and find better things to do with your time.

Love is reciprocal not a one way street. What you have is an infatuation, the best way to get over something like that is by getting out more and doing more positive things with your life.

People are fairly straightforward underneath all the BS. Nobody wants anyone or anything that they can have easily. I think probably this was the case with you. Next time dont be so keen to ask someone you like out, to start going out with her.

You should have taken your time, had a laugh with her and then maybe after a while when she gets her **** together make a move. Now its pretty much fu**ed

bennyineire · 10-05-2012 10:00PM

I know that feeling your talking about,

it's that special feeling you get when you see a lovely cute girl,

it's that feeling where you would do anything to bone her

ah yes...me too

the feeling that usually succeeds it in my case is the crushing disappointment of the gradual realization she is being boned by someone else and/or does not want to be boned my me...

followed by despair

followed by hope

before the cycle repeats itself

life, its just one cruel joke after another eh?

Thanks man for your advice, I'm not sitting at home all day and thinking of her....that's not the case. I have a very busy life myself but this girl just pops up in my head once in a while and especially after any dates that I went to, I ended up thinking about the girl instead of my dates. I have no difficulty in dating girls ( I'm not a cocky guy, I'm just confident :-)) but I always want what I can't have:-@...still I can't believe I had a very short time with her but she left a good feeling in my heart.

Out Of The Night · 10-05-2012 10:27PM

I fall in love on the spot every time I walk outside the door. And not just with members of the opposite sex. I'm talking everything! It is so annoying. I get butterflies in my stomach and my head feels all fuzzy..... :rolleyes:

I get the feeling you may have a soft spot for south east asian girls. They are gorgeous, i was there not too long ago & would definitely recommend you go there especially if u havent been. Vietnamese & Cambodian girls in particular are meant to be stunning and great girlfriends too

Cheers Leonidas83, hope you had a great time there. I've been to Vietnam, Lao, HongKong, Japan before. I never had a thought about South east asian girls until I met this beauty. She is taller than most asian girls I know, her great granddad is French so she has beautiful big eyes and lips but she is also incredibly smart and funny. I will be back to the South East for the charity work maybe, but not for the girls man...plenty of beautiful girls in Ireland >>>>> please don't ask me where are they :-0

Kinda but only a fleeting of fancy kind of thing not necessary love at first sight as I haven't really experienced much of it to be honest. I haven't really been in love much or not at all really so hard to know. Lust at first sight is more realistic though than love at first sight for me.

Hey mate, check this out.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/8705728/Men-fall-for-Miss-Right-after-a-single-date.html

Staggeringly, nearly one in four men said they believed in 'love at first sight' and knew whether a girl was 'the one' within seconds. YOU ARE ONE in four.

The study found a large percentage of men claim to have loved someone who didn't love them back. YOUR CASE.

Have you ever experienced "love at first sight"?
