Marrying the one?

[sasha1982]

Hi everyone!

 

Could you tell me what feelings did you have when you knew you had found the person you were going to marry?

 

What did you think in regards to the opposite sex? Giving up your single days..

 

And anything else you want to share that you KNEW this was the person for you.....

 

Thanks..

Well when you know you met the right person. ...you just know. I can't really explain it.

 

You don't want to be with anyone else or be single.

Even after the honeymoon phase wears off? Even when things become routine and slightly boring..? There is NO desire to ever be with anyone else?

6+ months later..... When you miss the person when he is not around, you think about him constantly when he is not around. All you want to do is please him, you want him around you and to care for him. He is the only person who you want to care for and to be around with. The thought of the two of you being apart makes your heart stop.

 

That right there is how you know. Other people can add to this, plus check out the post called "Love is... finish this sentence" in the 'Love' section.

hmmm. I've had those feelings twice in my life about two different people. I'm starting to doubt that 'feelings' actually hold any value.

 

I KNEW these men were the ones for me, but then something happened to prove me wrong.

 

I honestly believe love is a chance you take, as well as marriage. I don't know if you ever really truly KNOW.

when you meet that special person you will not desire to have anyone else. even if this person make you mad, you would deal with it rather than see this person with someone. you can see living the rest of your life with that person. you can see a future with this person where as in other relationships you couldn't. that good feeling you get when you are around that person never leaves.(never)

i second that one. i've felt this too! experience shows that feelings come and go. Love is a choice you make not a feeling. you have to commit and work hard at making it grow (on both sides). but not too hard. laughter and fun is really important too. it really is a chance you take. but as long as you care for the other person and they care for you and you have similar values, future goals re: family, children, career, spirituality, etc...then you can make it work. and similar conflict styles (working towards resolving conflicts in a good manner).
