真的有一見鐘情嗎？

還記得《魂斷藍橋》中的那一幕嗎？滑鐵盧橋上人們慌亂地奔跑，年輕的上尉羅伊一把拉住了芭蕾舞演員瑪拉，躲過了飛奔的馬車。四目對望，一見鐘情，墜入愛河。現實中的你相信一見鐘情嗎？這世界上真的有一見鐘情嗎？
 So that knotted feeling in the stomach when you
first spot the person you want to share the rest of your life with is not the
real thing, according to researchers. True love is a "combination of passion,
intimacy and commitment" which does not kick in until about 12 months into a
relationship.
A study of 147 couples who met through online dating agency Match.com found
that 61 per cent had high levels of the three components - and most had been
together a year. Around 16 per cent experienced "companionate love", with
intimacy and commitment but not much passion. Those who had just met or had not
been together long were going through what the researchers from Bath University
called non-love, with low levels of all three ingredients.
Study chief Dr Jeff Gavin said: "To date there has been no systematic study
of relationships formed online. Love is an important predictor of success,
stability and relationship satisfaction. It is a multi-faceted concept."
