Love At First Sight Explained By Twitter Users

Love at first sight. Is it real? Do people believe in it? Is it something you only see in movies? Who the hell knows. I don't know if I believe in it or not, but I do believe it's a personal opinion and there is no right or wrong answer. I took to Twitter to ask if people believed in the question that has been asked for years and here is what people had to say.

"No. Love is a deeper connection than just seeing someone and thinking they're hot. I've seen plenty of guys that I'm like good lawd but then they open their mouth... love is a deep connection that takes time and understanding to build. Lust at first is a thing for sure but not love. That's a common mistake that people make, confusing the two." -Lauren W.

"Yes! I believe in fate. I think too many people think fate is just a coincidence." -Jackie F.

"I'll walk by again." -Kevin K.

"No but I do believe in an instant connection. I feel like you need to know a lot about a person before you can be in love." -Emily D.

"No I believe in lust at first sight but love is an extremely deep and broad emotion and can't possibly be fully grasped at first sight." -Dani D.

"I believe love at first sight has take a whole new perspective because of tinder and dating sites that rely heavily on a person's photo. I also believe that as humans our eyes dilate when we are attracted to something, so it's a trait we have that coordinates with love at first sight! (Lol comm student) However it doesn't work in all circumstances." -Taylor W.

"OMG luv @ first sight is lye my dream." -Chris T.

"Heh no." -Kim A.

"No. You could see the hottest person in the world but what if you talk to them and they have a bad personality or you have nothing in common." -Kenadee B.

"Yessssss." -Andrea G.

"I don't believe in love at first sight. Yes attraction, obviously. But it takes a long time to actually get to know someone for who they really are. Usually when you first meet someone you are not your whole entire self, there are things you may be cautious of or something idk." -Challon F.

"Yes and no. I think it works both ways. Some people can just click when they meet but other people take the time to develop that connection." -Nikki S.

"No because love is more than just looking at someone. With love you need time. You can be attracted to someone at first sight." -Emily M.

"Nope. You can have a crush on someone or be attracted to them at first but love takes time and getting to know someone!!" -Halle D.

"I do not believe in love at first sight because to me that implies that love is easy. I don't think love is easy, I think it takes time and effort from both parties involved, but once you are in love I believe all that time in effort is worth it. I also believe you can fall out of love, or learn to love differently, if one of the people involved doesn't do their part. I do however believe in fate, and I believe in fate bringing two people together that are a good fit for each other and would bring the best out of each other. But even with the strongest physical attraction I don't believe they will love each other immediately. They have to work at their relationship and get to know each other deeply to share that bond." -Taylor R.

"I just believe in lust at first sight which can develop into love." - Murphy R.

"Yes. When you know you know. I think you can't explain it. It happens all at once. It's fate." -Mary C.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
