Love at first sight, TOEFL PRACTICE, WRITING SECTION #2
I think it is pretty naive to believe that there is something like love at first sight. I could be wrong, but talking from my experience, even after years of relationships, people discover that what they once thought was true love, was actually a very bad relationship.
I think we all grow up with a false ideal of love, which is implanted in our beliefs from movies and tv shows. Also, as some psychologists have told me, people look for different kinds of relationships at different stages of their lives. Therefore, youngsters looking for beautiful partners could misunderstand a very strong attraction and desire and consider it “love at first sight.”
If, after years of relationship, people would sometimes realize that what they felt wasn't love, how can they expect that what they are supposed to feel at first sight is actually love? I had such an experience with my first boyfriend; I was so wrong about the concept of love that I couldn't see how unhappy we were. This led me to several months of arguing with him for amazingly very (use one, either amazingly or very) stupid reasons and we refused to break up because we thought that we should fight for our love. Now I see that love is about things other than what you could have thought at the beginning; it is about compatibility of characters, respect, trust and care based on the several experiences you had living together. You can't trust or respect everybody without knowing them! In the same way, you can't say you love someone with just the sensation of loving them at first sight.
Another good example of people thinking that they were in love when it wasn't true are my parents. Luckily for me they misunderstood their feelings! They could have not been more wrong about what they felt for each other. I have to say that even though I love them both so much, they are the most contrasting people I have ever known. While my mother always puts their loved relatives as her first priority in her everyday life, my father is very egocentric and for small decisions, he always put himself above others. This creates a lot of fights and sad moments in their relationship. Anyway, for some people these differences in their personalities could be compatible traits in some twisted way, but what is not, is the fact that my father is the least organized person in human history, while my mother is a neat-freak. How could they possibly think of living together?
By definition, love is a feeling, but in reality it is also a matter of compatibility and experience.
It's very good. People reading this will feel what you wrote. I didn't want to change your personality in this so I just made grammer changes.

(Sentence seems incorrect and has to be rephrased in a better way, e.g. But in this case, it is not so. While my father belongs to the "less organised" category of human beings, my mother falls into the category of "order freaks".) How could they possibly think of living together?
