Love at first sight. Is that true or is it a myth? My beliefs are against it. There is a difference between seeing the beauty someone has and the person’s true personality.  When you see a person it’s the beauty that causes the attraction, not love.  In order to truly love someone you have to get to know them.  If not you are only basing your feelings on looks.  Beauty fades, a person doesn’t.  I read the play Romeo & Juliet. This is a great play, but I noticed something about them both, they each say love at first sight, but throughout the play you hear or read about how they describe each other.  Romeo continues to speak upon her beauty and how she is like the sun to him. Juliet says he is brighter than the stars in heaven.  Those are all descriptions of how each one looks or how beautiful they are.  That’s just my point.  They may be fictional, but people really believe that life could really happen that way. Everyone is waiting for their fairytale. For those who aren’t have their priorites straight. Love is not going to come to you nor will you go to love. My opinion is that people are reluctant to love. They  hear about it, see how some couples end up hurting each other, but would like to try it anyway. I’m not saying I’m against love, my parents have been married for about 18 or 19 years now and they still love each other. Couples tell themselves that my relationship will last, he/she said they loved me and will never break up. But one day they might break your heart.  You have to warm up to love. Get to know it. In order to find love you have to be willing to give it all you got. People spread the word around without meaning. They just say it because they think it’s the thing to do. I would like to say that no matter what you see or find out about a person you only find out half about them. I was told once that a friend is a step above a stranger, they just know your name and talk to you on occasion. Relationships are the easiest things to fall into and you know what that’s people’s journey. I’m going to end off with my beginning argument. You see the beauty, but not the person. Love at first sight. Is it true or is it a myth?
