I believe love at first sight is not possible. When a person thinks that they've fallen in love at first sight, they are just in love with the idea or image of the person.

Juliet was a girl who was pure to the world, perhaps Romeo was the first guy to flirt with her so she thought she was in love. Another reason to why I believe love at first sight is not possible is because of the meaning of love. Love is not being able to picture a future without them, it
