Real Simple magazine rallied its experts and took a good hard look at love’s favorite sayings…and they didn’t always agree!
Here’s a preview of how the experts analyzed, “there is such a thing as love at first sight”:

- Pepper Schwartz, sociologist: It's a romantic story when it works out, but you don't hear about the relationships that end badly. Relationships start slow and build; they aren't necessarily wonderful from the start.
