I think "Love at First Sight" exists, but it tends to be fleeting. Fall in love in a day, and it usually lasts about a week.

Let's assume these feelings are real. Right now, you are in love with what you PERCEIVE this girl to be. You couldn't possibly know her well enough to know that you can also love her true self, with all the complexities and depth that any person has. As time goes on, you may find that your first impression was a good one, and that you truly are in love with her, warts and all. Or, you may find that you idealized her a little bit, and that as you get to know her better you find that your feelings diminish.

This is why you must be careful and not rush into anything or declare your undying love right from the start. You need to take the time to make sure it's a LASTING feeling as well as a real one. Telling her how much you love her now, and then having to tell her otherwise a week from now, isn't fair to either of you.

Revel in this feeling; there's nothing like the high of love-at-first-sight. But try not to get carried away, and be honest with yourself if you feel it start to slip. I hope it works out for you, because it's great to be able to tell someone years down the road, "I've loved you since moment one."

But if it doesn't work out, a little caution and applied wisdom on your part can still ensure that you both come away with happy memories.

it is certainly possible. but a warning to you. take it slow. nothing like a guy saying i love you after the first date to scare a girl off! just keep it to yourself for now and see where the relationship leads.

It is possible just dont rush things too fast. If you take things slow love may find a way.

well, i would say irrational since love takes time. It depends on how long you have known her too. But, i would say youre not. sorry.

good luck
