"Love is a big deal. It is something you can carry your whole life, something you have between long-term partners, towards your children, family, and friends. Something often seen as one of the most important things in life."
"We are skeptical. We think that, probably, the 'lovers' are confusing love with some other attitude. Maybe it is mere strong liking, or infatuation, or attraction, or some kind of affection that falls short of genuine love."
"If love is to be a genuine response to something in the world, it should be a response to a big deal, too, something deeply significant about the person. And looks, and whatever one says during small talk, do not seem to be significant enough."
Love at first sight raises skepticism because it is often confused with other feelings like infatuation or strong liking. Genuine love is seen as deeper and more significant than these fleeting emotions. Love is considered a profound connection that can last a lifetime, typically associated with long-term relationships and deep bonds. The idea that one could love someone instantly without significant prior knowledge or connection challenges traditional views of love's depth and significance, making love at first sight a puzzling concept for many.
