I Believe in Love at First Sight
But before I became a relationship columnist I didn’t.
I believe in love at first sight.
But I didn’t always.
In 2013, the editor of a national outlet asked me to become a columnist. She gave me the choice of topics. At the time, I was going through my divorce.
I walked away from my work as a print journalist, and business columnist to focus on digital journalism. Since that time, I’ve spent more than a decade in the counseling and research of love, and relationships.
Through my work I have heard countless stories of love at first sight.
I’ve also heard the skeptics.
Those who think it’s impossible.
At my son and daughter-in-law’s wedding this past weekend, my nephew officiated. He made us laugh, and he made us cry as he narrated their love story.
One fateful night they met in a Manhattan bar called Tuttles.
They worked in the same advertising firm but on different teams. They didn’t have the opportunity for their paths to cross. In other words, they didn’t know each other.
But on that night, she made her way over to him.
