Contrary to popular belief, love at first sight does exist. Anyone can experience it, regardless of gender, age or character.
The main thing is not to confuse a suddenly emerging feeling with fleeting sympathy or superficial passion.
What is the difference between love at first sight and sympathy
If a person is truly in love, he or she will return to the object of their love in their thoughts for a long period of time. This happens even when people do not see each other for a long time.
But a person who simply evokes sympathy is quickly forgotten.
The difference between love at first sight and passion
The hallmark of passion is a strong desire to constantly be near a person and to possess them completely. As in the case of sympathy, in the everyday bustle the object of passion is quickly forgotten.
If you love, it is enough for you to know that your beloved exists - pleasure is brought by just thoughts about your beloved and mental dialogues with him.
But in this case there is no strong desire for intimacy.
Signs of love at first sight
Psychologists identify the following signs that will help you recognize love at first sight.
- You don't have to be near the object of your affection to be happy.
- When you think about your loved one, scenes of intimacy do not dominate other thoughts.
- When you are with the person you are in love with, you feel cozy, calm and comfortable.
- You experience a high empathic connection with your lover.
- Even if you are silent, it does not oppress you.
