Love @ 1st Sight !

There's a famous saying: "dont judge a book by its cover". Something similar is applicable here also. Dont judge what i am going to write just by title of my post, i am not going to give you description of any personal experience of love at first sight. Love is a buzzword in everybody's life. The place where i have found it in abundance is on the big as well as on the small screen. Love has provided the foundation to bollywood, almost 90% of the movies revolve around it. This whole phenomenon of Love @1st sight has been widely promoted there. But this phenomenon has perplexed me in real life.

Opposite gender attraction is a very natural thing and may be a very important thing as well. Two genders have differences between them which actually complete the world. Fairer sex prefer a life full of colors, flavors, excitement, affection, care, beauty, decoration and list may go on. At the same time the amount of passion shown by even a 10 yr old boy in presence of girl(s) is quite palpable. There would definitely be a similar story on the other side as well. So to experience life at the fullest i believe that the bond of love is required, but can it really happen over just few seconds?

I hope everyone would agree that such thing can happen only if you are not preoccupied with someone else. If someone hasnt made a love commitment earlier then that person is probably living a life which is not to the fullest. The extent to which that person feels the incompleteness may vary from situation to situation. But one certainly has this thing on back of one's mind that there's a vacant space for someone special. If a traveller is going through a long desert with his thirst for water almost willing to take his life, he is bound to get spellbound by the magic of mirage. Same can be the case with a traveller who is travelling the long journey of life and is thirsty for love. When you are actually looking for someone even a hint of beauty is going to make you dance on her tunes. After seeing, heros going mad over heroines in just the first look, from the childhood, mind is compelled to cook a delicious love story!

Many stories after interval also show the partners complaing each other that "you have changed so much", "you are not the person i loved". The only logical reason i could find behind the 'argumentative' second half of story was the mistake commited in the first part itself.

But where does this whole thing is leading to? Does this mean that one should stop searching for that lucrative 'someone special' and let time and destiny play their role? This is where i dont have any answers and even my logics fail to deliver. I have been playing the waiting game till now as i never wanted to rush things in such a critical matter. I also believe that my friends have sailed in the same boat, so dont have much of a first hand experience around.
Waiting for things to happen is an approach generally criticized by many. Even cricket commentators lash heavily on the captains who fail to take initative and are only playing the waiting game. So what to do? On one hand is the luring zone, where if one enters and finds things out of place one will be full of regrets and on the other hand is the chair outside that luring zone, where if one sits for too long one will probably find oneself engrossed in feeling of guilt.
Now which one to choose regret or guilt? Till the time i find the answer myself or you give me the solution i am going to sit on that chair, twist my neck with each movement of fragrence & beauty, and enjoy CRUSH @ FIRST SIGHT !!!
