When I was little, I had this friend whom I really like and enjoy her company, we were just children back then so we just always hang out and play toys together, but she had to move to a far place and we did not have any communications at all. I had forgotten about her but I said to my self that she is my first love, and then when we move to our new place, and I was shocked that her family and her is one of my neighbors, and some feeling of happiness and excitement filled me. I just want your opinion about "first love never dies" :)

I do believe so because we tend to remember our first no matter what it is. I don't think that the love that you feel about that person is the greatest of them all but it's just that they are your first.

I think we tend not to forget those feelings, because yes it is our first and all of this emotions are somewhat new to us and we felt happy, relax and at the same time nervous. Thanks for responding and God bless

I really believe in this, because I believe that with first love this is the time that you will learn lessons about love. This is your first time exploring things on how to deal problems between your love, on how to build a strong relationship. But sometimes it becomes different when you have experienced something not good with your first relationship.

No, I don't. Well, No ... and yes, but not the way you're thinking. See, there is only One love. Often, you feel that love in different ways for different people; but it's always the same love, like when you breathe air through your right nostril vs. when you breathe the same air through your left nostril. So the love you feel for your first "love" is the same that you feel for your second, third, fourth etc. If you come back to your first, the love is STILL the same.

I believe love is not die if it may be first or last or second if true love are there then never die. But the sweet moment of first love cant forget.

Hi friend, good to hear that you find your childhood friend in your new place and love her, yes, it is really hard to forget about the first love. Since we got it in our childhood days and the memory stored in our mind deeply.

I do believe in this phrase, but not in a sense that the feelings never die; but it is more of like you will never forget your first love. I'm sure all of us will never forget our firsts, and especially more if it is the person who taught us how and what love is. The feelings may not be there anymore, because we've grown and moved on but we do remember the memories and the lessons.

Well maybe first love occupies a special place in one's heart so the feelings for the person won't die for as long as you live. But I have not really had that experience. I have had several crushes during my younger years and can't even identify who among them is my first love. What I really know and sure of is that my last and greatest love is my husband and surely my love for him will never ever die.

Well, with my real first love, he and I lost contact with one another for almost nine years and then we came back into contact with each other and I do find that I still recall the love that I once had for him and admittedly, I do still love him, but the way that I love him now is not the all consuming love that I used to have for him. I love him like I love all of my friends and I want him to be able to have happiness in his life. I believe that I will always have some love for him for the rest of my life.

I believe there is true love but not in my first love. Maybe I haven't found my true love so I don't have any first love yet. And the great thing about first love is it will be yours for the first and last time.

I don't think it's applicable to everyone. There are cases like if you happen to meet again, you will remember your sweet old days, but the romantic feeling may not be there already. Sometimes we miss the difference between "loving still" and " just missing". It is true that we surely would remember who our first love is, but keeping the romantic feeling may not be that possible at all times. On your case, maybe you missed her that much..or yes, you must be in-love still with her.

I do believe that once you love a person it will stay forever because love is a permanent feeling but sometimes in can be converted it other feelings such as anger and hate. However, one thing that changes about this feeling called love is its magnitude. At first when you had first bf or gf you think you love him/her so much that you would not love anyone after him or her. But after you break up love transforms into something. May it be good or bad. Moreover, the love you had for that person will decrease and when you will love again the love you have for that person will be nothing compared to the current love. I can say all of this because I've already experienced it all. The feeling of loving someone and be loved back. The feeling of acceptance and rejection. The feeling of being cheated and the feeling to cheat. We all make mistakes, we just have to learn from and it and make up for it. Life goes on and you just have to find that fits your life and the one you believe is your future.

I believe in it.Now I'm falling in love with my second boyfriend,but I can't forget the first one.Because it is a so profound memory.when I recall,I feel sweet,happy,and of course sad and aching.No matter how much you love the second one or the later,you have to admit that the first love is the most special and deep.But the past is the past,we can't go back and change it,I think we should cherish the present one.

It may mean that it could not be forgotten for it's impossible not to remember your first experiences in life. But if it refers to the level that your love will remain as it is as the years go by, i think i could not fully agree. maybe there are some cases that first love had resurfaced after some time but this is not so in most cases.

This truly sounds amazing that you feel romantic feeling for someone with whom you only spend your innocent childhood. It might be possible that she also feel the same way about you and if you think it's possible or right thing to do, you can spend time with her talking about your good past times and how much you loved her company and how much you still remember her. I believe there should not be a feeling of hesitation or shame in expressing such innocent and wonderful love. If you lose her for second time, you may not find her ever again and you may regret this loss for the rest of your life. Good luck! God bless you..
