Writer's Block: Vision Test

myurbandream[Error: unknown template qotd] There were a lot of "yes" answers to this prompt (and one spam ad - LJ, can we fix this?) so I felt I should step in to say, NO, I don't believe in love at first sight.
But I really think that's because of how I define "love". I do think it's possible to meet someone and instantly like them - or find them physically attractive - but I wouldn't call that "love", I'd call it a crush or an attraction or even just plain old charisma. Friendship and love, I believe, come with time spent together. So while someone you meet and instantly like can become someone you love, with time, I wouldn't say it was "love at first sight".
