love at first sight

First meeting someone tends to be odd – you know little more than their name and their appearance and some sort of reason of why your two paths crossed. From this experience, I find that more often than not I am incredibly attracted to everyone at first encounter. This happens regardless of the sex of the person. Maybe it is his or her new-ness, some interesting thing about them that I have never done or met someone who has done that particular thing, or maybe it is just how they pronounce a particular word. Who knows.

This feeling, this love, tends to fade away over time or even within the span of the conversation. But it is so strange how first encounters and interactions can mean so much and impact what happens (or doesn’t happen) to a relationship so fast.
