By the time we’d get home, we’d have fallen in love multiple times. If love were dependent on good looks, then we would all fall in love every time we walked down the street and saw good looking people. Love at first sight has nothing to do with good looks. Love At First Sight Has Nothing To Do With ‘Good Looks’ It is trying to make you attracted to this new person so that you will do everything in your power to get with them, and hopefully (according to the subconscious mind and its opinion), this new person will give you positive emotions just like the person from your past did. You see, the subconscious will always try to look out for your well-being, and this is what it is trying to do here. The subconscious makes the opinion that because this new person looks like someone from your past that was good for you, this new person might be good for you too. People can fall in love at first sight if the new person they see looks like someone they once loved before or someone who had a positive impact on your life. We can also see this illogicality in the way our subconscious minds causes us to fall in love at first sight. This shows us how illogical the subconscious mind can be. It doesn’t make any sense for the subconscious mind to dislike this new person just because he/she looks like a person you don’t like. For example, you may have met a person who reminded you of someone from your past who you didn’t like (maybe a bully from school, or a teacher you didn’t get along with), and you found yourself not liking this new person very much because of it. We tend to relate facial features with characteristics.
Impression formation is the psychological term for the way the subconscious mind interprets facial features like this. You may be unconscious of the fact that this new person looks like someone else from your life who has influenced you in a positive way, but your subconscious will have picked up on it right away. The subconscious has formed a connection between the physical appearance of this new person and a person from your past or in your circle (who looks like him/her) who has made a positive impact in your life. Then there is a strong possibility that you’d find him/her physically appealing, even if other people think he/she is just average. A family member or relative that you really like or.To give you an example, if you were to see someone in the street who resembled: Here, I’m using the phrase ‘love at first sight’ as meaning falling in love with someone after seeing them for the very first time (and not necessarily having spoken to them).Įach of us has our own perception of beauty based on our own background. Let’s first clarify our definition of “love at first sight”. This mistake can directly affect the process of falling in love at first sight. And one such mistake (which is the focal point of this article) it makes is assuming that people who have similar facial features … have the same personality type. Put simply, our subconscious mind is not perfect.
These then spill through to our conscious thinking and we react according to them. In fact, this simplicity has been the cause of many misjudgements, stereotypes and wrong beliefs all throughout the ages. You see, our subconscious mind forms opinions without us even realising it. The subconscious mind works in a very simplistic manner.
