“The power of a glance has been so much abused in love stories, that it has come to be disbelieved in. Few people dare now to say that two beings have fallen in love because they have looked at each other. Yet it is in this way that love begins, and in this way only.”
Glances start everything.
Love often begins in the simplest, most unexpected moments—like a single glance. Though many stories have made this seem unrealistic, there’s truth in it. That first look can hold curiosity, connection, and something unspoken. It’s not about fantasy, but about the real spark that draws two people together. Sometimes, all it takes is eye contact to feel something shift.
Love doesn’t always need grand gestures or perfect timing. A shared glance can speak louder than words and awaken deep emotions. In that moment, two souls may recognize something familiar in each other. It’s a quiet but powerful beginning. And often, that’s where real love starts.
